I have been slacking on my blog for the past couple of weeks, mostly because I've been a weight loss slacker! In week 20 I lost a total of -0.20 and this week was better with -1.5 (still not sure how I pulled that off). It was Memorial Day Weekend last weekend and I ate everything in sight! My neighbor from home and my neighbor from the beach and I hung out all weekend, had a blast, we ate, drank and were merry! :)
I recently purchased Bob Harper's new book "The Skinny Rules" and have been on the program for the past three days. I told Ed last night I could tell I'm going through sugar withdrawals. I miss my beloved piece of chocolate after lunch. By no means does Bob say you can't have chocolate but not until you reach your goal or you can eat it during you weekly splurge meal. I would rather have wine over chocolate... or maybe wine with chocolate, yum!
The Skinny Rules are really easy to follow and very basic. Drink water, don't drink your calories (Bob addresses the fact that wine does have a place at your table!! I love him for this), eat protein with every meal, eat apples and berries every day, don't eat carbs after lunch. There are 20 total but my favorite is rule #20, have one splurge meal every week!
I have 7 weeks until my birthday and 16.3 pounds to go. That's 2.3 pounds a week, very doable!
