I'm back! Life sometimes!
Oh well. I learned something weird while I was 'away'. A friend who is a nutritionist had me write everything that touched my tongue down for three days. She went over it and flipped out big time. Said the reason I'm not losing weight isn't as much a matter of how much I eat, as it is
what I eat and
get this how little I eat She said that my body is actually in semi-starvation mode because I don't eat that much and when I do it's the wrong food for the most part. She said that if I start eating regularly, eating healthy foods at regular intervals, I should see a signifcant loss. I am working on it and according to the scale have dropped 2 lbs 4 oz in 5 days. I'm by no means doing perfectly or even well at it. Especially the 'right foods' part. But I'm eating breakfast now, even if it is just an activa or a bowl of rice krispie knock-offs with 2% milk. And I eat lunch about two hours later, which has actually staved off most of my cravings. Still working on the wholesome dinner thing though...
Lots of catching up to do!
