I hope that this "biggest loser" will help me to continue my weight loss. I gained more than 9 pounds on the cruise but boy did I enjoy every bite! The first five pounds came off easily--mostly water weight, I think. I started last week at 188.6 pounds---ughh, I hate to have to put that in writing. By last Saturday, June 6, I was down to 186.4 so I lost 2.2 more pounds. I know I have to get exercise back into the mix to be successful. Maybe by next week I can be down to my pre-cruise weight. I must admit that I feel good about a lot of the changes I have made in my diet. I think they are things I can continue doing throughout my life and in the end, that is what this is all about, a change in lifestyle.
Here's my tip for the week--First, I've been really careful to watch the number of calories in the type of bread that we buy. I've found one whole wheat variety that is pretty good and only 50 calories per slice (sorry, I don't remember the brand name). My sweet stick-with-you snack is a piece of toast with a tablespoon of peanut butter on it. I sprinkle a packet of splenda on the top and spread it in. It's almost like peanut butter with honey toast and only about 150 calories. It's really great for a quick breakfast (just add a piece of fruit) or an afternoon tummy growling stopper. Have a great week! Love, Mom
