I know it's been a bit over a month since I last posted and I'm happy to say I'm still happily sitting on the THM wagon! It's been 64 days with NO sugar and only 2 off plan meals! In that month I've been camping for 4 days (in a tent....let's not talk about it!!), I've been out of town 4 days & have had some physical issues. I'm pretty proud of myself!! I also have an announcement....drumroll please......
I finally hit 30 lbs gone this morning!! WooHoo!!!!! I'm so thrilled!! I won't say I'm a speedy loser, but it's definitely been steady! 15 lbs in 11 weeks! Not too shabby!
So for those of you wondering what real life weight loss looks like on THM.....let me show you what mine has looked like since January......
1/1/15 - 309 lbs
2/4/15 - 292.8
Hubby was in the hospital with a staph infection & had 6 weeks of daily IV antibiotics at home.
2/16/15 - 298.8
In May I had a D&C & tore my ACL
6/18/15 - 284.8
Totally struggled to get back on plan for almost 2 months....and gained a lot of weight back....my knee was really messed up and I was in a LOT of pain.
8/1/15 - 293 (started being really serious about THM and cut out ALL sugar!)
9/4/15 - 287.4
10/1/15 - 282.6
I have pretty bad arthritis and went through a week with TONS of inflammation......figured out it's gluten that's causing the flare up. Boo.....no more Ezekiel bread....at least for now! But the inflammation has been better.
10/21/15 - 278.8 - 30.2 lbs lost!!
The moral of the story is.....jump back on the wagon when you fall off! ;)
Next on the agenda is the recipe of the week!!
Briana Thomas created the orginial recipe here.....but my friend Amanda on You Food (AplusY) altered it to make it lower in carbs and it is SOOOOO yummy!!! Stop whatever you are doing and go make it!!
Ok, that's about all I have for today! I'll do my best to get back into the swing of blogging more often!
Blessings!
Dana
