WELL THIS IS TIME TELLING......

 Last year I started a Dirty Keto Plan. It has been and up and down weight issue with me. It did get down to 158 earlier this year. However I am now back up to 164.  At a stand still now. Found out that eating out was not a good thing for me. They like to put sugar in everything you order. Even if I think it is a good  choice I can taste the sweetness. One thing I learn in doing the Keto is that Cheese and Gluten are my nemesis. Too much of the cheese is not good. The gluten just makes me feel bloated, plus I look it. When I stay on the Gluten free and eat less Cheese items the pounds fall off.

Therefore, now I am going to work out more and be really mindful of my food  choices. Cooking at home more and when on Vacation watching what I order. Plus taking more Carb Blockers when eating out on Vacation.  Also making sure I can exercise more on vacations. I found that helps a lot on the weight control. Especially when you need to eat out.

I am going on vacation for 3 weeks in the next few months. So, I will have to bring snacks I know I can have. Think I will make some to take with me. Look for the recipes on my Kitchen site. Plus  follow the vacation time on my Travel blogs. Links are on the side bar.

An Exercising Regiment for PCOS.

Went to the Nutritionist with my teen daughter. She has what they think is Polycystic Ovary Syndrome also known as PCOS. One of the ways to control it is maintaining a healthy weight. For her that means losing weight and staying on a 1500 calorie intake until the desire weight is achieved.
We will be working on a exercise regiment. One thing I will do with her is Mall Walking. Three times a week we will walk the Mall. Now for a teen this is hard, you know why... That's right No shopping allow or window shopping. Just walking for a set amount of times at a set speed. I have several pedometer and will give one to her and wear one myself. This will be good for both of us. Other things we will do is The Wii and Swimming. Our Vacation is coming up, Lots of exercise will be included. She walks every evening with her Dad in our neighborhood.
I have been getting so much info on this PCOS and learning a lot about the syndrome. It amazes me how many teens have it. Most articles link it to over weight issues. If this is truly a weight issue, then when everyone loses the pounds it should be cured! However I am not so sure about that cure. Yes it is important for health reason to maintain a healthy weight. We will still be watching her as she drops her weight to see if this so called Syndrome will get better. Making her body be in the natural female balance. Growing healthy teen is the world of Fast food and Quick bites is a challenge.

So Tired, In Pain and Feeling Blue

Well I went to Dad for Fathers Day. Did well on my weight and loved being with him. Just us two. We went out a couple times and then Watched movies together.
Had to come home on Wednesday, traffic was not bad. I was glad to see the family. However things started to get back to normal fast. The work and demands of the Home put me in a whirl.
My daughter had a doctor appointment and the doctor told her she has to loose weight to manage her PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian syndrome). Now this is hard because teens can be rough to work with. They want to be independent and Not be told what to eat and not to eat. I have been looking for sites as well as a nutritionist for her. Trying to make peace in the house.
My hand is starting to hurt the more I use it. In therapy at the present time. Everyone wants me to open the pool that it very hard for me to do. I will need help and they are not eager to give it! I feel so overwhelmed and all I want to do is blog and drink Coffee!
So here I am tired, In Pain, and Feeling Blue.

Logging Meals & A Healthy Weight

Well the past couple days I haven't posted my Food Log. Decided that instead of listing the food I would just list the calorie, fat, carbs and proteins of each meal. That seems to be the better way to manage it on this Blog Log. I tend to eat the same things, so it get a bit mundane to post it. As I posted earlier, I use sparks to log my meals therefore I do have a list of food already. I heard that trying to keep you intake around 400 each meal and snacks between 100-200, one will be able to maintain the calorie daily intake. Now I believe that is the key for getting to my fit weight.
