I started Phase 2 on Saturday and have been enjoying having a morning bowl of oatmeal, especially since the weather has been cold and dreary lately. Other than protein, oatmeal is one of the best breakfasts for staying full ’till it’s time for the morning snack.
I went to the grocery store tonight and picked up some other SBD carb friendly items: apples, whole wheat wraps (tortillas), whole wheat English muffins, and a few SBD frozen meals. I got a few other things, as well, but all of those were Phase 1 foods, so not worth mentioning.
I’m very happy to be able to incorporate more types of food into my diet, but I have to admit that I am a bit worried about moving into Phase 2. Especially since I only lost .8 on my 2nd week of Phase 1. I’m hoping that I can continue to lose a decent amount of weight each week.
I know that part of this is going to come from working out — I have such a slow metabolism that I have to keep moving so that I can increase it.
The cool thing is, beside seeing results on the scale, I’ve had a few NSVs (non-scale victories):
- clothes are fitting looser
- my appetite is decreasing/it takes less food to make me feel full
- I feel more energetic
