I swear to date I have told about 50 people about forks over knives. Everyone keeps asking me how I am losing all this weight and how I'm looking so good. It's simple, I tell them, all you have to do is adopt a plant-based diet and focus on whole foods and minimize sugars and oils and you can lose lots of weight and get yourself healthy.
I really don't want to gain a lot of weight on my honeymoon, though I feel like it will be very easy to do so... I really want to enjoy myself and try all that Seattle and Alaska have to offer but I also don't want to splurge. I guess in the end that just means that I have more self-control now because about a year ago I would've never said anything like this. It's funny I can't believe that I just said it myself.
My weight is circling around the hundred and eighty one pounds right now. I makes me feel very good because that means I've lost about 47 pounds on this diet so far. I know that most my updates recently have just been the same thing over and over, so today I figured I would do something a little different.
What I'm going to do is challenge you to ask yourself the following questions:
First, what is it that I am putting into my body every single day? Is there anything that I eat every single day? What about food groups that I eat every single day?
Do I eat enough vegetables? Do I eat enough fruits? How often do I use olive oil or vegetable oil or canola oil?
how often do I eat white bread or dyed sugars?
When was the last time I cooked something made from organic plant based food that I liked? Has there ever been a time like this?
What do my parents look like? Do I look like them? What medical issues are in my family? What should I focus on?
Do I understand how to read food labels? Do I know what saturated fats are and do I know how to find the percentage of Fat that a food product is?
Do I know what ingredients cause what reactions in my body? Do I know what ingredients cause me to retain fat and what ingredients caused me to help myself lose fat?
What are the health benefits of meat? Dairy? Are there any? How much protein do we actually need?
