No headache today

Alright, I ate something other than fish for dinner tonight. And no headache! It's a relief, they really make things miserable. I'm scared to have fish again in case it gives me a migraine.

Something's fishy!

I eat my fish for dinner when Blake is home cause he really likes the fish part. Well, I didn't have a headache all day but as soon as I ate that last bite of fish BAM I got a headache. It was instantly. So odd... does anyone know why that would happen? And I wonder if that is what happens everyday and I just never noticed.

I got issues man!

So, I've been doing this strict diet for 3 full days (this is day 4) and man, I've been getting bad head aches. I think it's either:
A- I'm having sugar and carb. withdrawals
B- My system is totally detoxifying (is that a word) which tends to give headaches
C- My body isn't used to so little calories or
D- All of the above :o)

Crud. I do need to post pictures. I wish I had something that could help me get pics onto my computer. See, that is why I rarely post pics- no way of getting them on here.

I like this diet because it makes me make dinner every night AND I get creative with cooking. It's fun! (oh and not to mention the health benefits) Blake is liking all the fish and home cooked meals too ;)

I worked out today. Not very well though :/ I did my stationary bike, about 7 minutes of Slim in 6, the resistance bands, crunches on my exercise ball and then the stationary bike again for like 1 min. HA! I have so much cleaning to do today that I have a hard time working out. I figure cleaning will have to count as part of my work out today.
Thanks for all the support everyone!

Forgot to Mention

My cute husband Blake said he'd do the diet with me :o) so that really helps a ton!! Thanks lover!!! And he and I decided to do a free day... so like Fridays or Satrudays. Anywhoo. If anyone would like to join in please do! It's really great-- if you like fish that is.

Week 1!!!


Yay! I've been doing my healthy good stuff for a week now and I've lost 5.6 LBS!!!!! I now weigh 159.2. I'm so happy!! My mother-in-law gave me her diet to a healthier body and I started it yesterday. It was hard yesterday but I know it will get easier. I'm not giving up on it. Thanks Mama C!! :o)

no sugars/sweeteners of any kind, dairy, meat, prepared foods, canned foods. the best way to look at it is focus on what you can eat!

eat lots of fresh veggies/salads, samples of fruits, I just eat fruit for breakfast and that's it for the most part.
lots of fish. wild salmon is best. watch labels...no added coloring etc.
get a really good protein drink with lots of fiber, grains, veggies. I can get you one but its expensive.
you can have juice that is 100% natural juice.
lemons and herbs on your salads.
sea salt
allowed dairy:
real unsalted butter
sour cream
cream cheese
cottage cheese

2 eggs a week (omlets are great! you get creative with diff. veggies/mushrooms)
2 tats a week
raw nuts
& seeds (unsalted)
that’s about it.
as you get healthy you can add tyson chicken/natural
and whole grains

the rule that works best for all your meals is to eat 80-20
80% liquid 20% meat/grains
so a big salad with a small piece of fish
then a big salad with a small serving of grain or tate

I actually didn’t work out all that much. I walked every day up and down hills and got a ball to sit on while I watch tv to work my abs. I did a simple routine 3-4x a week.

Well that's her healthy diet from a specialist. I plan to work out often. I will keep all this up and I'll continue to see progress!!!
