Three days ago - Miss Lori and I had a stern talk with each other and are back at it...as a lifestyle (not a new years resolution). Its too over whelming to start new and overhaul everything so we each decided to do one thing better each day, by adding in a good habit - not eliminating anything or beating ourselves up for eating "bad food".
Lori has committed to drinking her water daily, I've committed to drinking a green juice daily. So Far so good.
I've been grocery shopping and packing my lunch too - making juice and smoothies at home and packing lunch is a lot cheaper than buying on the go.
I am also not going to weigh myself this year...a la Amy . I know I'm fat and I don't need a number anymore to tell me that or tell me I'm worthy each day. Eff That! I'll measure my health by the miles I ride and the mountains I climb.
Lap Band recap - I had fluid taken out in June because I couldn't eat fresh fruit and veggies and was throwing up anytime I did. I now can eat all fruits and veggies but I also don't have much restriction and have gained a lot of weight back....I was also gaining when I was too tight....long story short, its a tool - you have to find out what works for you. For me, not much worked in 2014.
So what does 2015 look like in my world?

This is what I'm drinking a ton of these days - green citrus smoothie - check it out
Packed Lunches..
Citrus Green Smoothie... yum!
Small doable changes. I like it. Green smoothies? I'm trying but I'd rather eat the greens when my sleeve allows salads back into my diet. Good plans. Tracey
