Yesterday and today for breakfast and lunch I had my meal replacement with protein powder. I added different combos of bananas, strawberries, and blueberries. Banana seems to be the best because it is the strongest flavor. It's nice to have the blender out again. I really enjoy shakes so I haven't been missing my meals yet. Last night for dinner I had a potluck at a party so it was small portions of random foods like meatballs, stirfry, fajita, carrots, celery, and various fruits. Tonight we had rice and curry. It is fun to talk about all the tasty foods I've had. For desert I had a couple of cookies Randall made.
I think it's really important to eat realistically.I love to eat. I love food. I love sugar. I love treats. I know I won't keep a diet if I don't get to have these things. I also hate counting calories. Really, I'm a horrible candidate for dieting. :)
But I'm a firm believer that being fit and healthy is a life style not some get skinny quick scheme. I know that if I keep a general idea of my caloric intake and balance out healthy meals, I am doing what is right for my body. And as I get more and more into exercise and being generally more active, I will get stronger and that weight will eventually come off.
Choosing to have meal replacement shakes, especially while I'm nursing when it's even more tricky, is something I think I can really do in a safe and enjoyable manner. Lets see how I feel in a week, shall we?
