Down 11 pounds! Still QUITE a few more to go, but I’m feeling terrific, and really do miss it when I don’t work out. I NEVER thought I would say that!
As far as my diet, just in case you’re wondering, I’m not on a “diet” per se.
As you read if you saw my last post, I’ve just finished Jillian Michaels’ “Master Your Metabolism”, hot on the heels of Michael Pollan’s “Omnivore’s Dilemma” , “Food Rules” (the newest- HIGHLY RECOMMEND!), and I have really, truly eradicated processed food from my and my family’s diet, and we are really quite focused on WHOLE foods (not the store- at least completely! ) Whole grains, greens, more vegetables, really focusing on where the meat we eat comes from and how it’s processed, and trying to eliminate as many refined flours, sugars, etc. from our diet. The more I do this, the more yucky I feel when I do eat the stuff that I know is bad. Your body does really tell you what it wants and needs- once you tune out all the “fast food/ frozen food/ processed food” noise. You just have to listen. I’m listening now, and feeling better.
