Down Again

I'm so happy...I'm now down to 175.5 lbs... .5lbs away from 10 pounds! That is great :) Now on to the next 10 pounds. I plan to continue on the plan which means I'll be going back to cycle 1 soon. I've been really good on cycle 3. Many of my friends say they can't believe my resolve. The crazy thing is that it isn't my resolve...it's the diet...you really do feel in control. Today I made my second batch of "Dr. Mike's Power Cookies", they really help me when I want something sweet. The two things I've really stated away from are sugar and bread. I think those two are dangerous for me. If I eat a little of either...I think I'll want a lot more.

Overall I've mostly been eating veggies, fruit, and proteins. I've had oatmeal here and there and brown rice. I've been experimenting with brown rice and I'm starting to get it down. My first one was awful! I've found it's best when I put it in the pressure cooker. My husband really like basmati rice so I'm going to look for basmati brown rice and see how that tastes. Oh, and I've also stayed away from pasta. I'll start writing out one of my days in case anyone wants to see what a day looks like.

I changed the comments settings on the blogs, so send me a comment if you're reading this...I'm always curious if anyone's really out there or not! Pretty soon I'll have to do measurements and pictures!

And if there's anything you want to know about my journey, put questions in your comments :)
