I'll get right to it. I lost those two pounds and weighed in at 270 pounds. I was hoping to get in the 260's but at least I'm back on track. I remember weeks ago when I started this journey, how I flew past the 280's without landing and was in the 270's without any struggle. Now the 260's has become a huge wall. Well, I'm about to plow through that wall and not look back. I did have a road block a couple of weeks ago but here's the thing... shake it off, get back on track, and keep going!
I'm seeing that the wall is in my head. For those who don't struggle with their weight it is hard for them to understand. For those of us who do, we totally understand. And even though just in our heads, sometimes seems impossible, at the very least, extremely difficult. Okay, it's not just in our heads; it's also in our stomachs or I should say taste buds. I'm training my taste buds in healthy foods and it's working. It really is. In fact, I really enjoy healthy food... not "health food", but healthy food.
Some of the foods I used to eat, I don't even want any more. I can't stand anything too salty or too greasy. And I love salads... as long as I have my own dressing. I make my own dressings and all my family likes them. Of course they have their favorites, all made with canola oil, no salt, and only a little honey. There is my tuna dressing, mango, lemon poppy seed, ranch, avocado, and more. I make them all creamy because I like dressing that actually stays on the lettuce. The lettuce I use is Romaine and I put other veggies in there, like cukes, carrots, tomatoes, bell peppers, etc. Okay, I'm done for now. It's 12:30, and I'm going to make my self a salad. I just blogged myself into it! Hmm, I wonder what dressing to use...bye.
