Week 7 - Weigh In Results

So, even being injured and trying to maintain healthy eating you can still lose weight. I lost 5.5 pounds this week after gaining a pound last week. That brings my weight to 220.5 pounds for a total loss of 19.5 pounds in 7 weeks. A total percentage of weight loss of 8.12%. :)

How am I doing it? Well, healthy breakfasts with good protein (egg whites, natural peanut butter), whole grains, staying away from processed stuff mostly. That includes "diet bars" and things like that. Salads for lunch. And a major player has been not eating maybe two hours before bed.

I heard someone say recently, "If you can make it, you can eat it". That obviously does not go for eating cakes and cookies you can make from home, but I would argue that a cookie made from scratch is better then ANY packaged cookie, and even some "low fat" cereal bars. So, I've been trying to remain as organic and non-processed as much as possible it has really helped.

Pray that my MRI this afternoon will come clean, and I can get my right arm moving again. This typing it hurting me right now. Gotta go!
