So, I have decided to start off eating really light. My meals consist of protein shakes and fruits./veggies and protein. Day 1 was a success and I am feeling motivated to keep going. I am doing this with a friend, so we are keeping each other on track and providing one another with updates.
Day 1:
Breakfast: Protein Shake
Snack: 2 boiled eggs
Lunch: Chicken breast and broccoli
Dinner: Protein Shake
Snack: celery and carrots
1 gallon of water
I am constantly reminding myself that it is about nourishment and not taste. It is difficult to reprogram my thinking when it comes to food, but it is necessary if I want to be successful. I want to, of course, lose weight for health reasons; but, I also want to drop some pounds in order to look better in my clothing. Vain...maybe, but true! I want to feel confident again. I have noticed that with this weight gain my confidence has decreased significantly. I know the way I feel about myself shouldn't be based upon my weight, but unfortunately it is. Like I stated earlier, I am working on my mental health as well; so, this will definitely be addressed during this process.
