Weigh in!

I'm pleased to announce that I'm down another 3 pounds this week!

I know Superbowl Sunday will be tough with all of the food, so I'm going to make sure that I eat well and go to the gym a little more this week to prepare!

I'm wondering how many of you plan your meals ahead? Like the whole week in advance? I'm considering it, but I know it would be a lot of work- although this way I can monitor calories a bit more and can hopefully prevent the random cookie snacks that sometimes I want.

I'm about ready to order another bottle of healthy trim! I'm so happy with the results- almost camera ready:)

The Gym This Past Week....

I'm proud to say that I woke up at 5am for the past week and have gone to the gym each day! It made me a bit hungrier throughout the day (even with the Healthy Trim) But I made sure to eat healthy foods and I can't wait for tomorrow's weigh in!

I'm a bit nervous because I know muscle weighs more than fat- so if I gained any muscle in the fat loss, I might not lose anything-but I know that I went to the gym and I know that I worked hard- so I feel good about it!

How is everyone doing at the gym?

Good Cheese

Ok, so I heard a rumor that White Cheeses are better than colored (yellow) cheeses. Does anyone know why this might be or have any information on this? I usually have white cheese anyway, but I'd like to know if there is any validity to this! Thanks!

When I gained some weight back...

So the main question from readers has been- what changed when I stopped taking Healthy Trim that I gained weight?

Here are my thoughts, I obviously can't pin point the exact reason, but I thought I should share what I do know:

1. It was the holidays- the fat content in food at that time of year doubles over normal foods!
2. I LOVE holiday food- I couldn't just have one bite (I think that Healthy Trim really could have helped here- if I had felt full, it might have helped a lot!)
3. I wasn't exercising. We spent a lot of time in the car going from one family member's to another. When we got there we were expected to sit and eat, the last thing we wanted to do! Believe it or not I move a lot in my day job, up and walking a lot in the office, so not having that general movement didn't help.
4. I started drinking again. Where I had really cut back on my alcohol consumption on Healthy Trim, I started drinking over the holidays- sweet sugary drinks. (Healthy Trim usually made me feel like I didn't want sugar)
5. I had soda :( I don't plan on having it this year- I want to kick the soda habit for good.
6. Lots of snacking. If we were at a house party, I would snack on little things here and there. Who doesn't have a dish of chocolate on the coffee table? (Another thing I think Healthy Trim could have helped with)

The fact of the matter is, my good eating habits went away- there were no salads available at dinners, just casseroles! There were no grapefruits available for breakfast just bacon and pancakes. I couldn't go to my gym... All in all it was a mess!

But here I am again, admitting a slight defeat, but saying that I am willing to get back on the Healthy Trim and healthy life style!

Thank you all for following- sorry if I disappointed some of you. I'm human, and I have to admit that to myself sometimes!

Up early

I'm up pretty early for a Saturday Morning so I thought I would say hello to all of you!

Had my Healthy Trim with grapefruit this AM and I'm thinking about going for a jog! (The class at the gym yesterday morning was tough on me.)

How is everyone doing this morning? Anyone have any results they'd like to share?
