My plan

First, I got off meds on July 2, 2016 and since my highest weight on meds probably about 12-15 months ago, I have lost 40-45 pounds without trying.

In an effort to help the weight loss, I am preparing to start the Whole30 on Monday. It's only supposed to be 30 days but I think I'm gonna go a bit longer but I'll make the final decision on that near the end of the first 30 days. I'm thinking it will be more like 60 or 90 days but we'll see. Anyway, I'm hoping that it will help level things out for me. Between the alternating anger/rage and overwhelming tearfulness when I do feel, and the rest a kind of void of feeling, I need to get proactive, in an effort to avoid medication again. In the midst of preparing for this, I have decided to return to a morning and evening meditation routine to also help. I'm hoping this will help keep me "centered" and focused instead of my usual scatter brained self lately. I hope that with all this I can eventually, probably more than a year, I can get myself down to a normal weight.

Ive started mcdougalls - starch solution and maximum weight loss. Ive been moving that way naturally, with oatmeal for breakfast, salad for lunch, rice for dinner (roughly). We'll see how it goes. I recorded a while ago on myfitnesspal, and i could not BELIEVE how much fat i was eating! Like twice as much as i thought i was.

Yeah I ate a lot of bad fat yesterday and now I'm 40 % body fat

My plan: I'm going to do cardio at the gym tomorrow. I'm going to eat fuller meals so I don't binge. I'm trying to sleep better.

So I'm sleeping better. I ate a full lunch. I didn't do cardio but I'm keeping up with weight lifting

I'm really excited about this diet from health nerds. Don't want to see my psychiatrist tomorrow. I'm not prepared for this first visit.

Restarted again today. I have 8 weeks until my dr appt. I would like to lose a few lbs by then. I dont set very good goals. My goal is kinda one day at a time. I went grocery shopping today, bought berries for breakfast, salad, thin bread, etc. I did exercise tonight on the mini bike so i do feel better.

My plan for exercise is to go to the gym after lunch. I will walk on the treadmill for thirty mins. I might add barbells. For breakfast, I will cook soaked oats gluten free. Then for snack I will have yogurt. Then for lunch I will have steak and veggies. For dessert I will have a date and maybe some dark chocolate. For snack I will have coconut oil chips. For dinner, i will have chicken and green juice, And finally for evening snack I will have popcorn.

I ate one cookie today. ONE. O N E, ONE. I dont think that has ever happened before in my entire life. And it wasnt a giant cookie or anything, it was like a regular ol 60 calorie cookie.

My plan(since I have been failing to exercise) is to eat a good breakfast with shrimp and veggies and eggs. Immediately after breakfast, I go to the gym and use the elliptical for fifteen minutes then do Russian twists with an eight pound weight.

I wouldn't call that failing to exercise?
That's a good cardio session that you can build on

Good luck with your plans 🐻.
