ImLaura's Journal, 14 May 16

Day 1.... the highest weight i've been except for being pregnant. Too much eating out and big meals at home. When JW is out of town, I do better, but still have been slowing putting on the pounds (up and down) over the past year. Not nearly as easy to keep under control as it has been my whole life. Menopause sucks. I need to stay consistent, and stay focused even when JW is home. Do not let his eating habits derail me. Slow and steady wins the race... this is a lifestyle change, not a diet. One small change a week until they are all habits I would not even think of breaking. I need to do this... I CAN do this. My plan for now: 8+ glasses of water a day, metabolism booster twice a day, protein first thing in the AM, small snack meals every 3 hours, produce and protein as the staples of my diet, no late night snacking (binging), walking or video 4-5 days a week. Will add other good habits in the coming weeks/months.
68.4 kg Lost so far: 0.1 kg.    Still to go: 5.8 kg.    Diet followed: Not Applicable.

Good for you...menopause does make it difficult with the metabolic changes, but you can do it!
