Great bike ride today logging 14.6 miles, out in this Texas heat. Weather bug reads 93 with heat index of 101. PHEW! Monday's ride was cut short to only 10 miles as heading out skies were puffy clouds and blue sky. Heading back storm clouds with lightening were headed towards my direction back home. High tailed it back just in time for the skies to break open and thunderstorms poured over our home. My goal starting out on this journey was to ride a min of 50 miles per week, weather permitting. I have a bad foot that has a missing bone near the ball of the foot so walking for long distances just kill my foot.
Now for my favorite part of the day. After I cool down, make my veggie/fruit/yogurt smoothie. I tell you all, I Love my Nutri-Bullet. Since starting this journey I have blended greens/fruits/yougurt for the past month 1/2. Just one, either for breakfast or late lunch. This has been the best weight loss tool for me. So filling and with added water to the drink, makes me so full that I don't crave anything to eat until dinner.
The other thing I've been doing with my tracking is to plan ahead. Early in the morning if I'm craving a specific food, like today it's Avocado (my favorite of all) I place that first. Then plan other meals for the day based on what I want and make minor adjustments to remove items so to stay within: FAT: 25-35%, Carbs 45-65%, and Proteins between 10-35% of my daily recommended amounts.
NOW, Carbs - should only come from fruits and vegetables. I've eliminated all processed foods and if I do crave items such as rice or pasta, I use brown rice and substitute spaghetti squash for the pasta. I can't believe I'm not hungry and craving for foods. First hunger I have, I'll take a full glass of cold water with fresh lemon juice in it. Wait about 15 minutes before I eat. Looking forward to my weekly weigh in tomorrow. Fingers crossed. I hope to lose at least one this week. Happy eating Healthy!
