Back again

I’m sure I’m not the only one who has a problem keeping up with my blog – mostly because I know I haven’t stuck to my WOE. But, as I said in a post awhile ago – gotta get serious. Last Monday I weighed myself and I was 295. At least I hadn’t gone over [...]

Time to get very serious

I’ve been in the hospital since Monday. I had several small strokes. I feel very blessed and that I experienced a miracle because there is no neurological damage and I’m feeling fine. One thing that I found relatively shocking was that I was placed on the American Diabetic Association diet. The menu we ordered from [...]

Friday Weigh-In – 3/26

I have to say I’m surprised I’ve lost anything because I was so off the program, but, I’m at 300, so I did lose another pound this week. I know what my problem is – I don’t have anything here to eat for most meals so I have to get some groceries in here and [...]

Friday Weigh-In 3-12

This week I’m at 302. Not as good as last week, but at least I’m down another pound. I know I wasn’t as “good” as I was last week about staying away from too many carbs. I was kind of concerned that I might not have lost any or gained. But, one pound is one [...]

Friday Weigh-In 3-5

I went back and read my previous posts that I’ve made since getting back on my program and realized I hadn’t mentioned my weight. Two weeks ago I was 307. Last Friday I was 305 and today when I weighed myself I’m 303. That’s two pounds a week. Not bad at all. I’d really like [...]

Mid-week menu ideas

It’s time to do my menu for next week. I’m going to make a few things from George Stella’s new cookbook “Real Food, Real Easy.” I’m going to have to make a trip to Trader Joes and maybe even order a few things off the net if I can’t find the items I’m looking for. [...]

Minor Update

I’m sorry I haven’t been around. Have been having some health issues. Will be back on board soon. Just wanted to let those of you who do stop by (a big thank you) to know that this is not a dead blog.

More good news

I got on the scale this morning and my weight it exactly on 300. I can’t see any reason why I can’t get into the 200s this week. Last night Dave and I made tacos. I had mine with low-carb tortillas and he had the regular hard taco shells. They were so good and this [...]

Some good news

Last week I went to see my MD and took my notebook where I’d been keeping track of my glucose readings since early July. He was very, very happy about the information and of course the good readings. We discussed the few hypoglycemia problems I’d had. He said that as my body got used to [...]

The scale moved

Can’t say it’s an effective way to lose weight, but the scale moved about five pounds over the last two days. I guess that’s what happens when you clear out your entire system. Nope, the stomach flu is not the way I wanted to get that pointer to move on the scale, but I’ll take [...]
