Week 1 Weigh In!!

Official Week 1 Weigh in for my Restoration Wellness program…
Drumroll please….
Bigger cuz this is big…….

Down 9.2lbs my first week!!!

Whattttttttt!!!!! That is approx 13% of the total weight I want to lose gone already!

Now down to 253.5!!!!

Soooo happy w my results not even “just” my weight loss in one week of 9.2lbs.
-My body fat % went from 53.2% (😬) to 48.9%!!!!
-My visceral fat went down 2 layers!!!
-My body water % went up almost 4%!! That’s huge bc I have always had a hard time drinking water.
-My physique stayed the same-solidly built aka I’m a thicc girl under it all no matter what 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I love love looooove that I can see all the changes in my body, and not just be motivated by weight!! It’s really encouraging to see I lost a lot of fat this week and my body is in fat burning mode, not “just” water weight!

This is not the easiest program but not the hardest program I’ve ever done-but it is without a doubt the only one I’ve ever done that actually connects me with what’s going on inside my body and not hyper focusing only on numbers on a scale to the exclusion of the health and wellness of your body as a whole. It’s intense for 45 days, but it’s not telling me that I have to eat like this forever which is what most weight loss programs do. It’s phases and learning and actually customized to ME specifically which is something no other program I’ve ever done before has done!! (And I’ve tried like 15 weight loss programs at least maybe more).

So so so grateful for this program. ❤️

Chicken Wing Dip

Seems like there's many varieties and ways to make this-this is what I do, and Keith loves it-I think it's pretty good too, but I can only eat so much of it, it's kinda greasy and I don't know...good but I like it in a buffet eating it with a LOT of other stuff, not as a main course or anything. Keith disagrees :) Thanks to BETH for introducing us to this magical dip LOL Chicken Wing Dip 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened 3/4 cup wing sauce of your choice (we use Frank's) 1 cup bleu cheese 2 cups diced cooked chicken 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese preheat the oven to 350 In a medium bowl, stir together the cream cheese and sauce until well blended. Mix in the bleu cheese, chicken and Cheddar cheese. Spread into a 9x13 inch baking dish Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven. If oil collects on the top, dab it off using a paper towel. Serve with tortilla chips.

Product Review

Keith and I made a pact awhile ago to try new things. Every week we attempt to try one new thing we have previously never had, or been scared to try or whatever. And it's been awesome, we've been enjoying so many things that we've been missing out on, and Mairi of course loves anything LOL so she benefits from it as well. A few weeks ago while grocery shopping, I spotted this jar of Tikka Masala. I was like, hmm, that looks good and healthy and nice to have for the times I don't want to cook or whatever. I grabbed it, bought and promptly threw it in the back of my cupboard. Keith busted it out tonight, and made a FABULOUS chicken and quinoa dish (we are obsessed with quinoa, did you know it's like BREASTMILK? and you all know how i feel about that :P It's a complete protein with an essential amino acid balance close to breastmilk!) and wow. Now I want to make it, and so shortly I'll be trying out a recipe for it, but in the meantime, if you come across this...

Challenges

Prob one of the toughest part of Restoration Wellness program the past two weeks has been time management for meal Prep. So this week my goal is to focus on that. More meal Prep and less coming home so late bc football in Buffalo or bc of being at rehearsal for my shows and having to still make a whole dinner and then eating late. It’s messing w me making sure I’m done eating 3 hours before bed. So even though I have had a hard time w this, I’m still losing weight and doing great on the plan. But it’s important to fine tune things and be 100%!!! Work in progress over here. Meal prepped this morning for lunch and dinner 💪🏽
