14 pounds lost! Take that Biggest Loser!

May 23rd, 2009 No comments

Six and half weeks into my personal weight loss plan and I’m 14 pounds down. I haven’t drunk turtle pee from rare Saskatchewan purple turtle babies. I haven’t eaten eaten a grape a day and washed it down with diuretics. I haven’t even sacrificed a single food that I liked. I’m still eating my brownies, sometimes with frosting, sometimes made with applesauce. The only thing I’ve denied myself is pizza, and quite frankly its because I don’t much like the cheese here in Sweden.

I have to admit that I’ve bought Weight Watchers food though, but quite frankly its freakin tastes awesome. They have these two frozen dinners, which I never saw in the USA, called Green Thai Curry and Chicken Verona.. Gawd they’re good. I sometimes have two at a time. That works for me because I count my calories and I work out a lot.

Try it my way, counting calories, keeping a journal and getting exercise daily and see if that’s much easier than buying special food or paying for clubs.

What helps? Food scales, a calorie counting book and some walking shoes. Everything else you can get for free on the internet.
