Fresh Start

213.4 lbs

Day 14 Induction

I made it through another successful Induction. I feel great and can definitely see the progress. I need to add more exercise, but I have been getting in almost 10,000 steps a day. I’m really looking forward to reaching my goal weight this time around. 

Meals:

Breakfast - None

Lunch - Bunless cheeseburger and iced coffee

Dinner - Steak and spinach 

Day 13 Induction

I’m up to 2,000 plus steps while at work this morning. I feel great and my Generous Cafe crew said a great prayer for me. I also got a new iced coffee drink idea at work with some cinnamon added for taste. 

Meals:

Breakfast - Omelette with bacon and veggies

Lunch - Bunless cheeseburger 

Dinner - Spinach and rotisserie chicken 

Day 12 Induction

It has been a great day, despite the rain. I’m still on course and making the necessary changes to accommodate my low carb lifestyle while at work and home. I’m getting so much better at planning my meals and keeping healthy snacks on hand. 

Meals:

Breakfast - Scrambled eggs with cheese and sausage 

Lunch - Turkey salad with ranch dressing 

Dinner - Lemon pepper wings and ranch dip

Day 11 Induction

A few days away from low carb eating, for two weeks. I am satisfied with the weight loss thus far, as I haven't been able to really exercise with my cycle. I expect a drop in weight after it is over. Nevertheless, I am following my plan, eating good foods, and feeling great. 

Meals:
Breakfast - Beef sausage with cheese cubes
Lunch - Salad with mojo rotisserie chicken 
Dinner - Lemon pepper wings and ranch dip 

Day 10 Induction

I worked from home today and did laundry while relaxing. Not exercise as my cycle is still in the picture. I hope to get some cardio in this weekend and next week. 

Meals:

Breakfast - Beef sausage with cheese cubes

Lunch - Iced cold brew coffee with cream 

Dinner - Steak, green beans with a small salad

Day 9 Induction

I woke up feeling a little better than yesterday, and made it into the office for work. I feel so much lighter and I'm so proud of the progress I have made thus far. I still have a ways to go, but getting started is the hardest part. This way of eating has lots of benefits and lifelong choices are able to be made. I can see the finish line this time around. 

Meals:
Breakfast - Iced cold brew coffee and bacon
Lunch - Beehive leftover bowl with broccoli, steak, and chicken
Dinner - Shrimp scampi with a salad

Day 8 Induction

Today was a bit of a struggle as I started my period and wasn't feeling my best. I still managed to run a few errands in-between work and made it to an early dinner and church prayer service with a few ladies. I did feel really bloated and uncomfortable. I made it through and will continue on tomorrow. 

Meals:
Breakfast - Iced cold brew coffee and bacon
Dinner/Early - Beehive bowl with broccoli, steak, and chicken
