Well, just a quick update on my progress toward my health and weight goals. But first, I want to share some amazing news too, I received a grad school acceptance letter from USC!!! I am not counting my chickens just yet as I am waiting to hear from the financial aid office as to what type of scholarships I may receive, and I am still waiting to hear from another grad program so crossing fingers and toes still. My partner and I have come up with a contingency living plan, whatever happens we will make it work. I am extremely blessed to know that I have his love and support. Also, he surprised me this morning with an announcement that he booked us a trip to Paris, France for 12 days end of July! We had been talking about it for the last year, so he found us a great deal he didn't want to pass up. So... that part of my life is looking real positive, and on the bright side I don't have to get on some extreme diet to get ready for the trip!!!
Weight: February 17, 2017
Weight: 177.1 lbs down 48.9 lbs from surgery (and 68 lbs from highest weight)
Sooo despite currently being on my "moon" the scale has snailed toward the right direction.
Currently, last week I upped my calories to 1300 on some days, I am eating a balanced diet with lots yummi protein from food, veggies and some legumes, whole grains, nuts and seeds, and while I have cut down on treats somewhat, they are still finding their way to my mouth. My daughter in law gave me milk chocolates for Valentine's Day. However, I've added more protein in form of an evening Casein Protein shake to help curve that sweet tooth.
Average Macros
Some days I have done well over 110g protein, but some days I fell on the lower end.
