Losin', losin', losin', keep those pounds a-movin'...

After a weight gain last week, I am happy to report that I lost 3/4 pound this last Tuesday, July 13, 2010. It's not much, but I am not going to complain. I will just do better.

My strategy is to eat less cheese and eat more fiber. Period. So, I bought four pounds of cheese to go with the ten pounds in my refrigerator! Actually, the cheese was at its lowest price in a long time. So, I was out of cheddar chunks and stocked up. There is about ten pounds of mozarella, five cheese Italian, and several other bags of cheese, all shredded. I had bought chunks at the time but ate them all. That is why I bought more chunk cheese--cost. It is a stock up of cheese until I decide to eliminate cheese from my life for a bit.

My supply for smoothies was depleted, so tonight I stocked up on oj, plain yogurt, frozen mango, and frozen strawberries. I had plenty of frozen blueberries and frozen bananas. My smoothies never vary unless I am out of one of the ingredients listed above.

Tonight, I resisted the urge to buy candy or chips or just anything I wanted to avoid. One free cookie from the bakery was my only indulgence.
I did buy one pouch of brownie mix. When I bake the brownies, there will be a cup of chopped walnuts in the mix.

Next Tuesday will see another weight loss! Anyone with me?
