Ok, I'm trying this again. By New Years, I hit an all time high of 196 lbs. So I have 60 lbs to lose. I already started back on my slimmest/plant based diet. 2-3 shakes a day, and anything else that I eat has to be either fruit or vegetable, or nuts and legumes. I have already lost 2 lbs.
I didn't go off the rails with sweets, or junk food. I've never been one to eat that stuff. It's bread and pasta. That damn bread and pasta. So once again I have to come off of that.
So I'll be back with the weigh ins :)

Not only was this the first I'd heard of this, he also mentioned that fat serves a purpose in our metabolism. Another new factoid for me. The bottom line for me was to appreciate that even our fat cells play a...

I just do not feel well and I really think that it's because I cried yesterday on my way to work about my Aunt who is in the hospital. I don't think that we will have her much longer. She is very frail. Now she needs help eating. So, this is the third time in a year that I felt this way after crying. I think crying releases toxins into my body. I also worked up a sweat at the gym...
