It Began Today.

I'm 35 years old, and let's face it. I'm fat. 5'4" and 264 lbs. according to the Weight Watchers scale at 11:30 this morning. With my start up materials in hand, I went immediately to the grocery store. Thus starts my journey, and I'm going to do it right here, hopefully with the support of a few friends I already had and maybe even a few I meet along the way. I'll document what I eat, successes, failures, and everything in between.

I've made my lunch, and I didn't have breakfast. I don't think I'll get in all of my 36 designated points today. I did make some beautiful stuffed peppers for 8 points each.

Stuffed pepper

The recipe includes:

2 green peppers (1 point)
1 cup of instant brown rice (3 points)
1 cup of low sodium beef broth (1 point)
2 cups of 80% lean ground beef drained (8 points)
1 can low sodium tomato sauce (3 points)

I divided everything evenly between the two peppers, then I sprinkled just a few Italian flavored bread crumbs on top. This is a filling and delicious meal!

That looks delicious. Good Luck, sweetie. Don't let the process overwhelm you. You just have to take it one day at a time and start each day fresh with your goals in mind. I won't lie, it won't be easy at first but as you make changes to your life they slowly develop into habits and then each day it does get easier. Don't skip meals, you need to keep your metabolism high and the best way is to eat smaller meals and more often. Like having an apple mid day between meals.

Good Luck, you can do this.

Good luck! I'm doing my version of the "carb-addicts life-span plan" and my ole lady is doing Atkins. She's doing better than I am at it, but we're both making progress. We have goals!
