Trying new things...

So I tried the Jicama chips, and while they were ok I wouldn't go out of my way to give up my cauliflower.

I tried the mac and cheese today too! Yummy with my veg'n crumbles! Or without!While it was yummy it did take a lot of work, and with my mindset (already veg'n and picky, and creating dinner for the family separate from myself)...I don't think I would make it again. I do have another packet of it, going to use the noodles for a recipe I found, grind them up etc. 

I cooked the noodles longer like others before me had suggested. That didn't work out so well so I let them soak in the hot water, that helped to make them tender. I did mine in the microwave, 5 mins with a bunch of water in a bowl, then let sit for 5 mins. Then dumped all the water out, used very hot tap water to make the sauce in the bowl with the noodles. Tasted like trader joe's microwave singles mac and cheese. In the end to much work for me for an everyday thing, but as a something to do once in a while oh heck yes!

So I decided to try the pineapple banana drink...if I close my eyes tight enough I can almost taste a banana laffy taffy. Lol

Until later...

Week 5 weigh in

Week 4 was missed, coach needed to go the dentist and I just started work, so there was no way to work around it. So straight on we go to week 5!

Weight loss week 5:

5.8 lbs lost for the bi-weekly
8.5 inches total loss
25 lbs total loss

The dreaded new thing...

So...my coach is trying really hard to get me to try new things. So I tried this little number called a vanilla rice crispy square...OH MY HELL! It was so nasty, I could only manage to swallow (thinking I would die) half. I couldn't do it. Some like it, some don't. I hated it. I cat swiped it off the counter into the garbage. It sparked an almost 200 comments discussion on FB. LOL. I really spent a good portion of my time avoiding it. GROSS! Thankfully for most things there is samples at my clinic, but in some cases no (but we can return the item...hence how samples are born).

Until later...

Week 3 weigh in (delayed a few days)

Week 3 was delayed a few days (went from a Thursday to a Tuesday) as it was easier midday to get to the clinic than late afternoon. I did have a cheat weekend, think that plus the cheese choice from the alt group made it less than ideal for me.

Weight loss week 3:

1.6 lbs lost for the bi-weekly
9 inches total loss
19.2 lbs total loss

Yes I lost, but my fat mass went up 8.4 lbs! I adjusted to use a lower calorie cheese I like and that should make things different. I always say journal what you eat, watch it if you gain lose it, if you keep losing then it's ok.

Until next time...

Week 2 weigh in

It is my bday today, will be happy with a loss again. I plan on having a small cheat for my bday, fried tofu and rice noodles (half the portion only of both).

Weight loss week 2:

2 lbs lost for the bi-weekly
6  inches total loss
17.6 lbs total loss


Until next time...
