GeminiDragon Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 It is good to be back! Life happened so I haven't been on in about a year or so. I am at 309 lbs now and I am looking at Bariatric Surgery. However, I can't meet certain program requirements (meetings) due to my work schedule so I am going to give the diet a go again. I am trying something new now. A 2 hour challenge. I eat small meals every two hours. These are my only restrictions: No junk food, no coffee, no soda. Everything else is fair game. I am trying to eat as many veggies and as much protein as possible. Here is what I ate yesterday. 2PM, Mettwurst with mustard 4:20PM Greek Yogurt, Cherry 6:30PM 2 celery stalks with peanut butter and a veggie burger with mustard 8:30PM two celery stalks with peanut butter and Greek Yogurt, cherry 10:25PM Carrots with Ranch dressing 2AM 6 oz Salmon, 2 Mettwurst, Japanese potato salad I felt hungry after the 6:30 meal, but not any of the others.

GeminiDragon Posted July 20, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2016 Update on my challenge. I haven't caved and the two hour eating plan is really effective! I just need to make sure I include protein in each meal. Also, I am making sure I work out every day in some way. I am going to weigh in only at the end of the challenge. Hopefully I see some results. Quote It is much more sensible to be an optimist instead of a pessimist, for if one is doomed to disappointment, why experience it in advance?

GeminiDragon Posted July 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 Progress!!!!!!! My 2 hour challenge is working! I had half of a bison burger and half of a side caesar salad and I was full! I am also eating slower which I believe is helping. I haven't been 100% on my meal log, but I know I can improve on that.

GeminiDragon Posted July 25, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2016 Fell out of my routine yesterday :-( Didn't eat every two hours or log my meals. I felt horrible! We were busy running errands and then we went poke hunting. I definitely need to plan better next time.

GeminiDragon Posted July 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2016 Okay so I know I said that I wasn't going to weigh myself before the challenge was over, but.....I did. I lost 2.4lbs!!!!!! That is the fastest I have ever lost weight! Woo hoo for me!
