Que's Journey begins

We need to find the cause of your "binding" and eliminate it ASAP. Is there anything that in excess would have this effect on you. Look over the diet and pick it apart. There's got to be something in the way....literally!

Seriously, it could be the dairy. Extra milk, plus with the yogurt and cottage cheese?????

Love the banquet you went to, LOL

So how are you today, my friend? I'm missing your tough love

I think you ladies might be right. I've added the yogurt recently & I eat 2-3 of those a day. I'll leave the milk in the whey shakes & for cereal and try to eliminate all the other dairy. It will take me a few weeks to get most of the dairy cycled out of the diet but I have to find suitable replacements for those items. Oh joy!






Now get those fins back to the gym!!!







...and don't roll your eyes at me either.




Is that better?

Do they make good money?

The only other thing that I've added recently are the SBD sesame chicken wrap meals. I've had them before but not as often as I have lately.

Smart Mermie beat me to it, but I too was going to suggest trying to elminate some of the dairy in your diet. I think 2-3 yogurts per day is definitely a bit excessive. I would start with taking those out and leaving the cottage cheese and whey in, and seeing what your progress is like. I think you use ON whey - that actually mixes really well with water. You can also try soy milk as a substitute for skim milk. Vanilla soy milk tastes pretty decent.

I would also only use SBD meals like the wraps and choc crisp bar only where really necessary or as a treat. While not terrible, they are still more processed than other meals you could be eating. I love the SBD choc crisp bar myself but only permit myself to it on occasional weekends.

Too funny that they only had sugar cookies and punch at a "banquet".....

Just stopping by to say have a great day, how did the tests go?

I had my "Wellness Screening" this morning and my numbers are:

Total Cholesterol: 121
HDL: 31
LDL: 77
Glucose: 73
Triglicerides: 66
BP: 123/72
Pulse: 53

The nurse was very impressed with all my numbers except for the HDL, which she said should be higher.
HDL = Good Cholesterol
LDL = Bad Cholesterol

Since I've had to fast since last night I was afraid that I might overeat today. So far I've eaten 2 pkt's oatmeal w/1 tbsp of GenSoy Protein Powder mixed in. Makes it very creamy! My meals will probably be a bit off today since 10am was my first meal.

I found an online calculator for converting food measurements in case anyone is interested.
