I like Silver Clayton’s answer. and in response to your question, princess, I think blogging your weight loss journey is a wonderful idea. Kudos to you on embarking on a more healthy lifestyle, journey, and body. Sound body, sound mind I always say.
Start off by drinking plenty of water and taking your vitamins, minerals, and necessary supplements daily. If you are not allergic, drink plenty of milk (vitamin D and calcium). Eat oranges and drink orange juice (not that immitation sunny D stuff with all that sugar and corn syrup and junk your body doesn’t need). Eat healthy small portions throughout the day, not 3 large meals and try to avoid large meals past 7pm if you can help it. Not eating right before you sleep with help with the weightloss. And eat an apple shortly before every meal. Studies indicate eating apples does keep the doctor away, or at least keep your body’s hunger mechanism off for a while.
When you wake up, first thing in your mouth should be two glasses of cold water to boost up your metabolism and get your digestive juices flowing. Eat healthy, exercise regularly, sleep, and work to eat.
Well, dispirited princess, 60lbs may seem like a lot to lose, but I’ve lost 30lbs in a few short months by cutting out my medication regimen. The two medications I took were on a list of five provided by a Kaiser doctor as causing the most weight gain as a side effect.
Thank God I don’t have to take those medicines anymore! Screw the psychiatriac world and the pharmaceducal companies! Those dogs just want our money!
Sorry for that rant. Okay, yes, I agree "Count down to Scale down" is a good, catchy name. Good luck! You can do it! We’re all behind you!
