I’m not sure which of these pictures (or either of them) clearly shows you that I’m half way to an old Nutrisystem reward bear that says, “20”. I have officially lost 15 pounds this morning.
I know I told you a couple of days ago that I had lost 14.4, but 15 is much more satisfying as a number. :0)
I have a long way to go on my journey, but I’m starting to feel I may have a handle on what works for me, if I can just keep my act together.
The basics for an older-than-dirt lady like me are –
- Intermittent fasting from after dinner at night until lunch the following day.
- I eat mostly protein and share an apple with my husband for lunch
- For dinner we eat either portion-controlled leftovers from my cooking or occasionally a commercial frozen dinner (Healthy Choice/Atkins), sometimes a side veggie, plus one dinner roll with butter.
- I’m trying to drink lots more water during the day
- I’m trying to move more – walking out to the shop, working out in the yard, plus doing a session of old lady yoga stretches each afternoon with some extra exercises thrown in.
This is what is finally working for me, and I have all appendages crossed that I will earn the 2nd side of the ’20’ bear soon.
