This has not been a great week. I spent two days with fluctuating blood pressure....up and down the roller coaster!! It made me very dizzy and nauseous, but that seems to be behind me. I was not able to eat much....mostly slept, but I have lost some of what I gained over those two days of not being able to eat. Your body goes into starvation mode, thinking it won't get any more food, so it stores everything you eat!! You gain!! I know that. Anyway, I had gained almost 5 lbs. in 2 days, but this morning I was down 2 of those lbs., so I am at having lost in 7 weeks 13 lbs.
BUT....
I lost inches this week!!! 1-1/2 inches more in my waist, for a total of 8" and another inch in my belly/hips for a total of 9"!!!!! I'll take inches any day. Also, although I am not EXERCISING, I am moving more, walking more, having more energy and am so happy that the inches are pouring off!!
Please view some of my recipes, and please feel free to make comments!! Take care and happy losing!!!
Hi, bloggers! This is my on-going saga of weight loss. After I started the last section around 2012, I have had a variety of health issues, which limited my ability to stand to cook.
Today is Wednesday, Sept. 26th and I lost another 1.6 lbs. today off the about 5 lbs. I gained over the weekend with the bout with the blood pressure and not eating! I am down 14.4 lbs. today, so just 1.6 more and I'll be back to my lowest weight.
ReplyDeleteToday I tried one of the rice bowls at Taco Bueno, since I had a coupon for $2 off. It was wonderfully yummy, and I did enjoy it. Will do that again, maybe next week. With all beans, corn, rice, tomatoes, onions, peppers, romaine lettuce, etc., it was a full meal. I think I'll have a huge salad for dinner. Oh, and today I bought the first of my Honeycrisp apples! They were like eating candy, so you know I loved it!!
