  1. New starting photo. I started logging my food yesterday.
  2. Since starting my 1100 calorie diet I’m down 7.4lbs! My next milestone is only 21.6lbs away!
  3. Laura7 changed their profile photo
  4. It worked! Down 1.8lbs from yesterday. Time to start losing again. Not planning on taking a cheat day for a long while!
  5. Ugh, so taking my cheat evening is really annoying me. So here are a few TIPS for those struggling in the days after your cheat meal. 1. Get lots of water 2. Drink peppermint herbal tea 3. If you haven’t had a BM in two days take some miralax or laxative 4. Lower your sodium and carb intake 5. If you can, exercise and then rehydrate. I’ll let you know tomorrow if it worked!
  6. So, I’ve been on this diet for seven days and I took a date night cheat meal/evening with dinner out and wine. Back on track today! Should take me about three days to drop this 1.6 lbs. Hopefully faster! I’m feeling really confident because I planned my night off and am ready to get back to it today.
  7. I bought some new workout shirts! The lowest plus size 1x. They are large for me but I like to have room working out. The best part is that I didn’t go all black. I actually bought colors and they look great!
  8. And now...I’m down 5lbs in 6 days. I haven’t lost that fast since September 2018, two months after surgery. So this is working! My first day of nutrisystem was a little hard. I forgot every time I introduce a new food to my stomach there is a chance it will reject it! And yes, I know there are carbs in nutrisystem. There is also protein and fiber and portion control and mini-meals and vegetables and protein shakes. Lots of good things for a short term plan.
  9. I had 99g of protein today! Including two of these shakes and 39grams from food.
  10. My meals are here! I’m already on an 1100 calorie diet but nutrisystem starts tomorrow and my new personal trainer starts next Saturday.
  11. This is day 5 of 1100-1300 calorie diet. Tomorrow I start nutrisystem. I am trying to stick to 1100/day.
