The diet is back on! I am more determined than ever to loose this damn weight! I went to a new doctor this week and hopefully all the test will come out okay. In the meantime, he told me to buy and read this book, Eat, Drink and Weight Less. It's pretty good. It's a lot like what I was trying to do but with more information and a better plan. I haven't read the whole thing yet but I plan on it. I'm going to put some of the info from the book here so I can get to it from anywhere. (I need an iPhone!)
The Nine Turning Points
1. Eats lots of vegetables and fruits
2. Say Yes to good fats
3. Upgrade your carbohydrates
4. Choose healthy proteins
5. Stay hydrated
6. Drink alcohol in moderation (optional)
7. Take a multivitamin every day
8. Move more
9. Eat mindfully all day long
Number 7 is going to pose a real problem for me. I have a hard time remembering to take medicine. In fact, I forgot to take it today. I'll be right back.
I'm getting hungry for lunch so I'm going to take a break for lunch.
Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers out there!
