Bulldog’s Diary

Unless Kind bars are protein bars you're awfully low on protein. Sounds delicious though!

Today was the first day that I ate healthy. My doctor told me not to count calories and just to focus on clean healthy eating so this is what I ate today:

2 kind bars
an apple
1.5 cups of blueberries
1 serving of almond thin crackers
1 cup of buckwheat
1/2 bell pepper
1/4 cup of cucumber
handful of nuts
1 cup of vanilla greek yogurt

i also walked my dog for 40 minutes and rode on the peloton bike for 20 minutes

my weight today: 175 lbs

Good start!
Don't give up If you will give up for a second- don't blame yourself- just leave it behind you and start a new day with your healthy meal

...not to count calories and just to focus on clean healthy eating

This sounds so sane to me! Sending you all good wishes for it to work really well. (Oh, and make it delicious eating, too!)

Yes the kind bars were each the ones with protein

I don’t really like vegetables (even though i’m a vegetarian haha) but if i have carrots with ranch would that be okay? Without ranch I wouldn’t be able to eat more than 2 baby carrots

Okay - life's too rushed right now, but after Christmas, I vote for a barrage of excellent vegetable ideas to appear in the Recipes section of this site!

I totally agree! I want to like vegetables but I can’t find a way to prepare them that I like

I agree with Liza, awesome! You know all you have to do is eat and live healthy today, if you can do that all else will be fine.

Has anyone else experienced feeling kind of funny when switching diets? I had an awful headache on Monday and today my stomach feels rather odd.

Headaches are normal when you're reducing sugar or caffeine and a bit of abdominal discomfort may occur when you up your fiber intake (especially when you're not drinking more water as well) but anything severe and/or longer lasting should get medical attention.

It’s day 3 of healthy eating! This is what I ate today:

1 cup of greek yogurt
1 banana
2 kind bars
1 serving of spicy cajun pistachios
1 apple
1.5 cups of salad mix with a little bit of tortilla strips, tablespoon of rosemary garlic oil, and 1.5 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar
handful of peanuts
1 serving of almond thin crackers with 2 tablespoons of 1/3 fat cream cheese
1 orange

I walked the dog today for 30 minutes and I went on the Peloton for 20 minutes. The peloton rides are getting so intense! haha

Today’s weight: 172.1

Good for you! You are on a roll now.

This is normal. Your body needs to accept your new eating style. Your organs need to accept your new situation
It will go away after a week or so.
Don't forget to drink pure water by small sips - all day long

Day four of healthy eating! I must say I’m looking forward to Sunday for a cheat meal lunch. We’re getting a puppy on Saturday and on Sunday we’re going out to eat and taking her with us! Also, it’s getting kind of easier to eat healthy when I eat things I actually enjoy and I’m not forcing myself to eat food I dislike. Here is what I ate today:

peanut butter and jelly sandwich with whole wheat bread and homemade jelly
1 cup greek yogurt
1 kind bar
1 serving almond thins with 2 tablespoons 1/3 fat cream cheese
half a bell pepper
3/4 cup blueberries
20 grapes
1/3 cup sriracha nuts
1 cup buckwheat
1/2 cup spinach
1 1/2 cups sauerkraut

I walked my dog for about 1 hour and 15 minutes and I did a Peloton ride for 20 minutes.
I forgot to mention that I drink at least 96 ounces of water a day as well to stay hydrated.

My weight today: 169.7

Bold move. I hope you have a plan for when your new baby doesn't yet know how to chill in strange environments.

Sriracha almonds sound delicious! When I come back I need to experiment with making sriracha nuts.
