So I made it through an hour with the trainer. Gail is going to kick my butt in shape :) She has also given me some nutrition advice and a plan to follow to boost my weight loss. So I have spent part of the day figuring out how I can still cook for my kids and family as well as feed myself healthy. Things like I can make chicken tacos for the family, and make taco salad (minus the chips) for myself. Or Kids get pork steak, potato and salad, I just skip the potato unless I do sweet potatoes (which I'm sure will happen sometime).
The hardest part so far is fruit. I simply do not like it. So I have to learn to have some somewhere in my diet. I am typically a salty person, give me veggies over fruit anyday. Or in my old day, a potato chip over a candy bar.
I made some breakfast frittata things that you make in muffin pans, and refrigerate for easy heat. I know myself well enough to know if it's not convenient then I won't eat it. My Daughter and I were talking today about how we can pre-make salads to keep for lunches on hand. I find with my job LUNCH is going to be my hard part. Real Estate is a "meet for lunch" type of job. Also, it's an on the go during lunch time type of job and well a drive thru is just too easy. So I have to be prepared to grab n go now that I am officeing from home full time.
So far my food intake has been good. Making Chili for dinner.
Talk to you soon.
