Monday

132.2 this morning after running 4.5 miles at the gym.

My strategy this week is to eat a substantial breakfast (like the oatmeal with peaches and soymilk I am eating now) and only fruit or vegetables (which includes soy but I need to get off grains and nuts) if I need anything the rest of the day and to hydrate, hydrate, hydrate.  The oatmeal will give me energy to last almost the entire day and it is immensely filling.

I am going to bring cabbage slaw with a bit of tempeh for lunch and a grapefruit for a snack.  I am not sure if I will eat when I come home.  Tomorrow, I'll do a double session at the gym (run 1-2 miles and back-to-back classes).  My goals for this week are to get off sweets completely - I did a great job breaking my chocolate habit last week - and going gluten/wheat free.  I do not think I have Celiac or anything like that, because I don't get violently ill, I do, however, feel yucky and retain water AND get a stomach ache if I eat a lot of wheat, like a bowl of pasta.  I really haven't been eating too much, but I want to cut it out altogether before I leave for this trip.

I hope everyone had a great weekend.  I know some of you are frustrated, like I am, with the numbers that show on the scale every morning.  We can fix it and make it better together. Work extra hard this week.

Even a slight sensitivity to wheat (bloating, wind, discomfort) is Celiac, it's just the degrees that vary. Don't be dismayed, it's just a name. I wish they wouldn't use the word 'disease' though, it's more of a dis- ease! All the best for the new week. <3. XXX.

I'm ok with wheat, but I have a lot of mates who are VIOLENTLY allergic to it :( Baking for them is haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard!!

I'm making sure I get some fruit and protein in me within 30mins of my gym sessions. It helps your body recover from the workout AND stop you from getting mega-cravings later on in the day ^.^

Don't give up, love!

AHH I crave the 20s! I was there was a day last week, but I messed it all up when I went home. You're so close just keep it up. You'll get there before I will!
