New Year's Update
Happy 2011 folks!
Well, apart form my attempt to do it solo in December, the diet didn't yield much. The Walmart Vitamin B Complex or Vit B6/12 pills do squat. Can't say it any more plain language than that.
So, on January 14th I returned to the clinic to do it the right way.
Of course, within 2 days I was burning ++ (yahoo!) and within 1 week I'm down 8 lbs. Ah, it feels great to be eating cleanly again and the pants are already loosening up.
I was worried that I wouldn't have the willpower like I did the first time, but it's there. I can easily resist the goodies and temptations around me, so I'm back on track to losing the 15 lbs that crept on and get back to my BMI.
I am traveling again this week, so I'm just going to be strong and grin and bear the ridiculous buffet prices to get the breakfast I need
BREAKFAST
6 egg white omelette - Pam spray only - with tomatoes, green pepper, mushroom and onion; 5 oz cantaloupe; decaf coffee with Splenda and a little milk)
and take it again in the wallet at lunch at the hotel buffet for
LUNCH
A little bit of lettuce, 3-4 slices of the turkey cold cuts and 7 oz of tomatoes, cucumber, broccoli, etc.... I'll see if they have a simple balsamic dressing, otherwise it's too-bad, so-sad and sprinked with pepper.
I usually bring melba toast or breadsticks in my purse, in case they only have baguette bread, so I'm not tempted by the carb villains.
I'm lucky at least, that where I stay when I travel, there's a Bernstein clinic only a few minutes away.
So, I'm on the road again, and I'll report back shortly on my next week's progress!
Adios.
