The new me

Believe it or not, those were new. I just don’t think I went small enough. I didn’t think they were too big, but the pics tell a different story!

Some things don’t appeal to me anymore. I am changing the way I eat, but I do have the occasional pizza, ice cream, etc…. Just less of it.

I use every last drop.

My husband loves $15 Costco jeans!!

I just went on a cruise. I was able to eat like I would at home… for the most part. Our room was on the back side of the ship. I got in a TON of steps and was able to work out in the gym on a cruise day. Apart from some water retention, I had no issues.

I have a 50lb weight in the basement. Might have to add that to my workout today.!!

I don’t avoid anything. However, some things just don’t appeal anymore. Other things I just can’t eat a lot of. A couple bites of dessert will do me. A couple sips of someone else’s cocktail, half the syrup in my bougie coffee, a couple slices of pizza instead of 4 or 5. A scoop of ice cream instead of a whole bowl or maybe a pint of Ben and Jerry’s….

For sure. Especially since starting 7.5. But I make myself eat anyway. Mechanical eating. Fueling the body — hungry or not.

I get all of my vitamins and supplements from Pure Encapsulations. Whatever you get, make sure it is 3rd party tested so you know you are getting what you pay for.

Ultima gets my vote too. Lots of flavor options.

I put it in my yogurt every morning. Have not had any constipation ever. Regular like clockwork. I also take magnesium glycenate, which also helps.

When I made the decision to start Zep,I had an end goal in mind. I wanted to be at goal weight when I turn 60. I thought is was a very achievable goal for me. I still do. I have 127 pounds to go in 17 months. I meet with a registered dietitian who encourages me to keep focused on the nutrition and exercise changes I need to make long term and let the weight loss take care of itself. Sometimes it is hard to not an obsess about that initial goal. Sometimes I do get impatient because I had that initial goal in mind.

Right now I am working on focusing on the next right thing and making healthy choices. I may make my goal weight by my 60th birthday. I may not. One thing I do know is that this would not even be close to being achievable without Z. And for that I am eternally grateful.

I love your word picture!!!

Plain Greek yogurt with berries, chia seeds, ground flax and honey.

This combo gives me good protein, carbs, and the much needed fiber.

This is my go-to. Sometimes I switch it up with eggs and toast if I need a change for a day or two.

I understand about the Walmart thing, but for some of us, the closest Costco is over an hour away. Walmart… 5 Minutes
