Getting back on the horse

It has been awhile since I wrote.  I was so discouraged last time and so stopped.  I didn't eat any differently, just felt embarrassed that I do not lose weight like others.  I had a nice chat with my beautiful daughter who inspires me and she has always encouraged me about my weight.  She has been following Wheat Belly since the first of the year, having been inspired by me and my interest and results with BFC.  So it is always fun to hear what she is eating and how she just hops right back onto the WB when she wanders off.

But I felt like I had been off blogging and just stopped feeling that I had anything positive to say.  Well, I am still following BFC, but can't get myself to use MFP.  I have entered food into it to get the numbers so I know what I have left but I just don't have the discipline to track every thing I put in my mouth.  I would rather not snack, unless cucumbers or 10-12 walnuts, and not have to enter everything.  

The last couple of days, I have taken pictures of some meals, which my DH thinks is the dumbest thing ever. But, I kind of like it.  I love seeing other peoples food and it gives me ideas.

I was so darn proud of myself with this breakfast.  Zucchini, bacon, and eggs.  I even had some left over I ate the next morning.

My best go to meal is a grilled hamburger.  I added blue cheese and we had a tomato, mozzarella salad that I put on lettuce so I WOULD EAT MORE VEGGIES!

So I am back blogging.  I am finding I no longer tempted by lunches out and I love my cobb salad with dressing on the side.  So I'm focusing on the good and keeping myself on the straight and narrow.

  1. Nancy, we all seem to be alittle off at this time. I haven't blogged in a week. But one thing I did decide to do this time around, is to never stop the connections I have made through this blogging community. No matter where you are, just pick up and get back on the horse so to speak. I am one of the slowest losers, and sometimes I don't even feel worthy to blog about anything. But I still do and you should to. And I love your meals. It gives all of us ideas. Just keep moving forward. Sending hugs and love! XO

  2. I've thought about reading that wheat belly book since everyone talks about it so much. Right now, with everything going on, I guess I'll just try to stick with the BFC as well as possible. Like you though, I have lowered my carbs considerably and it seems to help.
