It has been an up and down struggle. April I had a set back with plantar fasciitis it has prevented me to have good walking days. But I am doing at leat 4000 steps, just not getting the 8000 or 10000 I was.
I started seeing a holistic doctor...and I am starting to get some good results! I am gluten free and no nightshades, which is no peppers, potatos, tomato, egg plant, he doesn't want me eating tofu or soy either...
It has been a steap learning curve and I am still having some issues getting enough calories in, with food I can tolerate. But I have lost 10 pounds.
Today was a better day, 6737 steps. Under calories. Feet hurt but I am ok.
The inflammation in my body is getting less and less. I just have to remember to drink MORE water! I am doing a Red Dot 30 day challenge at work, not to eat extra sugar or baked goods while at work. The baked goods is easy since I am gluten free...but no soda or candy or anything like that...Monday is Day 16 and it is HARD! But I have been doing good.
Trying to make all the change a life change not just temporary. And I am glad to see some movement down. The thing that upset me was Saturday I was up 2 pounds...today I lost some...so I am going to stick to weighing myself every Tues...and not every day where it goes up an down! It makes me crazy!
Grateful my boyfriend has also bought a new fitbit for himself and he is seeing how much calories he normally eats and he is adjusting. The hardest part for him is the realizaton that he cannot continue to eat crap...and drink soda all day long and expect to lose weight! Today we went to Olive Garden, I had the Apricot Chicken and it is reasonable. He had the Mixed Grill and was surprised it was 838 calories! But he didn't have the bread, and he had water with me...and lunch served as dinner and lunch for us...I had have of my serving so will have the rest of mine for lunch or dinner tomorrow.
He has been working out on the Wii...and I am hopeful I won't be sabatoged by him this time! :)
