discovery

A couple awesome discoveries this week. One water weight sucks but it will leave. So since my last blog the 5 lbs of water weight left plus 2 real pounds so im happy with that. I would love to lose 5 lbs a week but i know thats unrealistic and im pretty content with my current life style so its all good. thats a total lose of 34 lbs and a 17 lbs till i can file to the insurance for the surgery so im slowly getting there.

I have also discovered the power of egg beaters. The egg white egg beaters you can have 3/4 of a cup for 100 calories thats a decent amount of eggs and if you had fresh veggies you could have an awesome omelet.

I also discovered the beauty of progresso soup. now with all canned anything if your water your salt you might want to look at that but since im mostly counting calories and trying to get the most bang for my buck this does the job. Now you will notice this isn't the pointed progresso soup that they sell with im sure is low sodium this is just there normal full flavor soup. This particular type of soup is 120 calories a serving which i don't know anyone that only eats one serving of soup most people eat the whole can. So for 240 calories i had what felt like a totally normal none life style change lunch. i am doing my best to stick to this extremely low calorie diet and feel as close to human as possible and share that with all you.

I have also learned the beauty of chicken bacon. Now you will notice i also only paid a buck for that pack of chicken bacon that i got at sharp shopper. So i thought well let me give it a shot i probably will not like it after all i don't like turkey bacon but lets give it a try. So this chicken bacon is 25 calories and 2g of protein a slice how awesome is that. So i cooked up four slices last night. And boy did it hit the spot. Now no its not bacon but its enough like real bacon that on a sandwhich or something it might just cure that craving. 

I suppose thats about it for now i go back to the doc on monday so ill let you all know then how it goes. As always feel free to ask questions and share my blog on your pages.

Happy life changing everyone.
