Jenniey's Weightloss journey

[JennieyL]

i know I am worried that is what I will do if i try the no carb thing.. I love sandwhiches.. and everything that is Bread! but we will see if the scale moves first I wont do it unless I dont see any results!!

writing hey! thats awsome.. I dont even know where I would begin to write if I wanted to lol My mind is on the simple side of things lol!
I work in the operating room at the hospital here, its fairly big with 11 operating rooms so it keeps me busy.. we do everything there its the major trauma centre in the area, So I get to see alot of things that I dont like to see, and some quite interesting things as well! lol
I also work part time as a flight attendant! but that was back when I didnt have callie and I am thinking it is all going to be to much for me to do it so I am thinking of giving it up when I go back to work at the hospital

WW Grilled cheese
popcorn
apple
2 slices of home made pizza

That is so cool! My mom has been a nurse in the incentive care unit for over 35 years and we got to hear a lot of interesting stories over dinner... Which means nothing grosses me out when I eat anymore.

You are doing so well! 20 points! =)

Could you try switching to a bread like Ezekiel? I actually enjoy it... definitely not the same texture as a yummy fattening bread but good in a different way. lol

Hi btw! I read in another journal you're from BC, I'm from there but live in the Yukon now.

20 points isnt bad at all.. but I feel like I could eat so much more, I need to find more things that have little fat in them haha.. I ate popcorn again today and that is the only thing that I could think of that isnt alot of points that would fill me up!

Popcorn is actually quite un-filling in my opinion. They have done tests where they take a whole bag of popcorn and put it in a glass of water and it barely raises the water level at all. But eh, if it works for you then stick with it. Have you tried making that soup yet?

From a website:
Ezekiel bread is a bread made from four grains and four beans. Typically it contains wheat, spelt or rye, barley, millet, lentils, great northern beans, kidney beans, and pinto beans. According to the AAOOB website, the specific mixture of grains and beans has been tested by food scientists and found to be complete nutritionally.

I've tried sprouted grain bread and found it to "airy" and dryish... the Ezekiel bread I have is actually decent, if your grocery store doesn't have it try a health food story. I looked for it for a long time to no avail..so heres a tip, you'll usually find it in a freezer! They don't sell tons so most stores keep it there.

Where are you in BC? I moved up here for the man. lol But I couldn't love it more.

 

[JennieyL]

no i havent made it yet, I am going to shop tomorrow and pick everything that I need up for it!! I will let you know how it goes .. And you dont find it filling! wow.. I eat it and i feel full, but maybe there is a reason why I can eat 2 bags.. because I feel hungry like a hour after I eat it! lol

You're doing really well, well done! The only thing I can see that is very lacking from your diet is fruit. (edit: just noticed you've started adding some in!)Try a homemade fruit smoothie with honey and low fat yogurt if you don't like eating too much fruit.
