Thanks craftygirl! If you were looking at the bathing suit pictures, they were taken exactly one year apart. Spring break in florida one year...and then we returned to same beach one year later.
The truth is..I am about 10-12 pounds heavier now than in the last picture, and mostly flab. I am back in the gym working out and getting back into shape. I am not too far away from looking like that picture so it shouldn't be too hard.
How is the somersizing going?
I lost most of weight with my own type of low carbing. I would have to say SS is close to what I did. If I wanted carbs, I had a carb meal in the mornings, usually oatmeal.
Breakfast: eggs, or cottage cheese, or left overs from the night before. OR a carb meal (oatmeal)
Salad and protien (tuna, chicken) for lunch
Protien and veggies plus salad for supper
Eggs for supper at least once a week
snacks...APPLES! only one a day...or cheese (not both at the same time. celery with peanut butter (funky food to SS)
Tons of WATER. Drink water, and when you think you can't drink anymore, fill up your bottle/glass again and have it sitting there waiting for you again.
And no eating after 7:00pm only tea and water. NO DIET SODAS after 7:00
This is what I followed when I first lost most of my weight. I wasn't any one plan, just a sensible way to look at low carb eating. I didn't hog down on high fats, but I made sure I did have fat in my diet.
Plus I did work out alot. Lots of walking and biking, once I dropped most of my weight I started weight training to tone up everything.
Sorry to ramble on...just thought I would share how I did it the first time around.
I am following the simular menu and routine to lose those nasty 10-15 pounds I gained.
