I have been going at it for about a week now and I have dropped about 6 pounds. I have done some research to make healthy choices. I thought I would post some of my new favorite foods. First of all almond milk. If you get it unsweetened it is 40 calories a serving. I can eat a serving of kashi whole grain cereal with almond milk and feel full for several hours. It is great.


I also was told to avoid overly fatty things. I have found that low fat laughing cow cheese provides a great alternative. I have used it in a healthy tofu fettachini dish. It also goes great on a pita or wrap. It spreads really well!

I was also told to drink pretty much straight water or vitamin water. I hate the flavor of vitamin water so I am doing straight water. I have found that I like drinking water when it is really cold. I have found that I can pack my nalgene bottle full of ice then add water and it stays cold for hours. I love it and have actually really enjoyed the water part of my diet. That probably sounds silly, but it's true!

I will keep posting on my success. I meet with the doctor and go over all of my blood work tomorrow afternoon.
