Develop healthy eating and exercise habits that I can stick to for life. Starting at 170.5 on May 23, 2014 for the last leg of the journey.
I went to see Dr. Fuhrman taping his new PBS program "End Dieting Forever!" and was inspired by the research he presented (some new, some older) about the connections between food and health, and also by the testimonies of some of the people present in the studio audience and in his new book, "The End of Dieting." My goal is to follow his plan and get down to my goal weight -- which is around 135 -- by the time I graduate in June 2015. Actually, I think I can do it by sometime this fall, which would be excellent. So I'm eating right and exercising more...stay tuned!
This is the suit that I want to buy for interviews when I get to my goal weight and size:
so far...lemon water.
watermelon
smoothie: pom juice (a little), blueberries, leftover cantaloupe, 5 slices banana, kale leaves (this made a lot)
evening: popcorn (need to quit it with the evening snacks, I think they are messing up my sleep)
homemade indian food: palak tofu (involves a lot of spinach) and yellow dal, with brown rice
end of homemade wheat bread, dry (should have skipped that)
