THE WEDDING DIET

After gaining 6 pounds from our three week binge in Iowa, it was clear...time to implement "THE WEDDING DIET". It isn't a published diet just healthier choices Nick and I decided would be better for our health. So far it consists of...NO pop, booze, red meat, white bread, potatoes, candy, fast food, pizza, white anything really, creamer, sugar (except the kinds in fruit, etc), mayo, ranch,etc...We try to keep meals at 300 calories or less. Surprisingly it has been successful, and no that hard to do. We do get one "Bad" day per week where you can have whatever it is that you fancy...(still no fast food though). Nick even checks labels now...we also try to eat organic if we know the ingredients we can eat it. I have lost 10 pounds to date, and Nick has lost his vacation weight plus two pounds. We are phasing in the gym so that we don't do too much too fast. The healthy change couldn't have come at a better time because I found out I am full of cholesterol...YEP...FULL. I will keep ya posted on that later...I have a follow up appointment in 3 months. FISH OIL...here we come!
