Day 4 still doing good!!

So far so good!

Day for was pretty easy to go though I wasn't hungry between my meals. I am considering if my meals might be to big?

I have a lot more energy than I have had for a long time.. Weeee or it is kind of annoying not to be able to sleep in anymore.. Some how my body just feel like getting up at 7:30. I wounder if it is because of the sun or just because I am having more energy! 3 weeks ago I would sleep until 11 am every day and maybe even take a nap! Most people would be happy to get more energy, and it sure would be amazing with all this energy if I had a job and tons of stuff to do.. haha but right now it sometimes makes my days long! I guess I should get started with my studies, cleaning the apartment and spend some times out in the sun.. It is complicated not to work, when you for the past 7 years has worked a lot together with studying! I love to work, or probably more I love to spend money and that takes me to work a lot! :)

Food wise it has been pretty easy SO FAR!!! =) Though I am starting to have a lack of food ideas as well as craving for sushi! 

I guess people are right when they say planning is important for success. Maybe I should try and make a meal plan for next week.. Just not sure my boyfriend will appreciate that..!   

Breakfast:

3 small eggs, half a tomato, half a red pepper together with 6 almonds and water!

Lunch:

steak together with panned onion and tomato. Together with the most delicious smashed vegi. (1 sweet potato and 1 carrot cooked until tender. Smashed with a handful fresh parsley, salt and a egg yolk).    

 Dinner:
Grounded beef cooked with garlic, chili, nutmeg, tomato lots of cabbage and carrots. It was really good!

Day 3 on whole30

Today has been a lot better than yesterday. I had a horrible night as Argentina is getting freaking hot!! I sleep really poorly when it is hot in the room. Maybe the bad sleep made me wake up with a headache or maybe it was just the one from yesterday, not sure though..
After breakfast I was feeling a lot better.. I went for a small work out 3 km walk during the day and else mostly relaxed the energy level isn't getting up yet!
Also my cravings for Coke zero has been on a minimum today!! Say hell yeah!!

Breakfast:
Small steak panned with an egg and a green onion. Together with it I had an apple and 6 almonds. Delicious! The picture is horrible sorry!

Lunch:

Leftover from yesterdays dinner. Stew, lettuces, avocado and 2 sunny eggs.. It was a lot better than yesterday!

Dinner:

Baked sweet potatoes, onions and garlic. With it a panned chicken breast marinaded in parsley and lemon. It was one of the best meals I have gotten for a while!

 I am so ready for day 4 I am feeling good!

Day 2

Still on track!

I didn't quit and I am not going to... But I had such a bad headache yesterday that I simply wasn't able to blog anything. Ever since I was 12 years old I have been having issue with migraine, it comes and go luckily I haven't had as many lately. If yesterdays headache was a result of another migraine or craving for my Coke Zero is something I will never no.. But it sure was one of the longest and worse pain I have ever had! It lasted a total of 18 hours :S Today I am feeling a bit better but my head is still hurting. 

The food yesterday was really good, I am still happy and ready to continue. 28 day to go!!! 

Breakfast:
2 build egg, 1 red pepper, 1 avocado and lots of water. 

Lunch:

Chicken lever and chicken neck, cooked in green onions, red pepper, chili and oil. Served with lettuce and half a avocado.  

Dinner: Home made stew, with meat, carrots, celery, tomato. Served with lettuce. 

 The pictures doesn't look good but it dam did taste good!

Whole 30!

Fresh start

It has been quiet in here for the past week, as I have been on a trip. This have had a bad influence on my eating habits. To the point that I hate unhealthy Sunday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday! Yeap sooooo Stupid and sooooo sad! Mostly because it put me back to the start weight! 

I find it crazy how I went from 115kg to 112.4kg in 3 weeks but only needed one week to gain it all back!

 

Oh well I am so ready to get back on track as my body was feeling incredibly bad! My stomach was hurting and I was in general just not feeling well.. Some of it might come from the fact that I had to sit for an important exam Thursday, but it was clear that all the white flour and sugar wasn't good for my health. After a lot of thinking and ready I have therefor decided to dedicate the next 30 days to 100% hard Paleo. I am going to do what is call the whole 30. 

- Only 3 meals a day

- Include protein, vegetables and healthy fat in every meal.

- one fruit a day.

- No sugar, flour or sweetener.

- No processed food.

- No dairy for the next 30 days.

- No coke Zero for the next 30 days..This is for sure what will be the hardest for me! I am addicted to this shit. 

- Work out 3-4 times a week.

For me it doesn't sound to hard. I am fearing the NO Coke Zero the most.. I know it will bring headache and other shitty stuff! I really hope it will kick start my weight loss. My goal for this 30 days is to get from 114,9kg to 109.9kg. It is a 5kg loss in just a month! I really hope it will happen.

Day 1 out of 30

My day was fine today. I was feeling well but a bit hungry between lunch and dinner! Also I got to walk 5km in the morning, which felt awesome!

Breakfast:

2 eggs. ½ red pepper. ½ avocado. A cup of tea and lots of water.

Lunch:

1 chicken thigh. salad of cabbage, orange, walnuts and olive oil.

Dinner:

2 chicken legs. Salad of cabbage, orange, walnuts and olive oil. Panned Butternut squash and a home made mayonnaise. 

Feeling good ready for tomorrow!

My health has improved!

Wow I can already fell a difference in my body!

It has been 2,5 week since Emilio and I started out on our weight loss journey again and things are going well..!
So far I haven't been having to many sugar cravings as I normally would! Though I have to admit that I did eat Ice cream last week Yeap so stupid.... It wasn't even that tasty! Instead of eating really unhealthy stuff like ice cream, yesterday I decided to buy some 70% chocolate! Just a little piece of it and I am in heaven!! Sooo good!!!
We have been trying to make some tasty Paleo food, and to be honest it is so easy to make tasty food following the Paleo rules! Only issue is that it sometimes gets complicated to be on a budget and still eat health after Paleo! This is because Vegetable as well as meat isn't cheap here in Argentina! To my surprise it is actually cheaper to buy those things in Denmark! Normally Denmark is know for being EXTREMELY expensive as we have a 20 % sales tax!
I can really feel a change in my body. Normally my belly brings me tons of issue! But not anymore, it seams to be working a lot better!! YEAH.... Just as I haven't had a bad headache for a week now! Normally I will have migraine 4 times a week.. All these health improvement together with my weight loss makes me sooo happy!!
I am so ready to just keep going! Let me share some meals pictures :)

First is my process to make a bread on just nuts, seeds, olive oil and egg! So easy yet soooo good!

 

Here is a vegetable lasagna! Instead of using pasta plates I used eggplant and cabbage! It was pretty good!

Here is the most delicious stew I ever have made! It is meat, whine, celery, carrots and tomato!

Chicken wings with a smash potatoes and a carrot tomato salad!

Tons of vegetables panned with chicken wings and chicken guts!

2 weeks in!

It has been 2 weeks on my new weight loss journey! Things has been going well I had one down day last Monday where I ended up eating some ice cream! Worse thing was that it didn't even taste good!! =)

On the good side I got back on track right away and stayed on track for the rest of the week! This week I lost 800 grams again. This bring me to a total loss of 1.6 kg doing the first 2 weeks! I guess I should be happy with this result but I was honestly hoping for the kilos to get of faster!

To kick the weight loss a bit more I will try to slow a little bit down on fat and increase some more exercise.. Or more right would probably be to actually start working out! haha...

I did give the work out a try today.. I have had the goal of running a 5K for as long as I can remember! For a lot of people that would be piece of cake. But not for me! I can easy walk 5K, but no way I can run it. In the beginning of August Emilio tried to push me to run but after just 100 meter it was time for a break! So yeah I still have a long way to go! Though today when I worked out I run 200 out of 400 meter! It is an improvement! :) I will try to blog my work outs some more. Hopefully by the end of October I will be able to run all 400 meters before it is time to walk :)

Wish me luck!  

Time to for a new start!

I am back, this time I will stay!

Honestly the past 10 months hasn't been pretty... >( I ended up gaining all the weight I so happily had lost! 

You might wonder what went wrong, and I honestly owe you an answer but the true is that I am not really sure. I was back home in Denmark from February to August. I had a blast being home, but I was working A LOT.. Most weeks I would be working around 60 hours! I love to work so in that sens it wasn't bad at all.. But it made my food chooses horrible.. Doing my working shift at Bilka I would eat pizza, burger and other really crappy food.. (Though they taste SOOOOOO good)!!! haha.. 

My other work was an internship at a home where people with intellectual or developmental disability lives. I truly LOVED my work there!! Unfortunately we ate way to much delicious cake, desserts and other unhealthy stuff.. One of the amazing girls who lived there loved to bring me hot chocolate every night and how should I resist that! :) On the good side we mostly cooked their food, but the food they wished for wasn't the healthy stuff.. Rather really fatty food! 

Yeap so all these horrible food chooses made me gain 10kg and then I already gained 5 kg from November to February in Argentina! 

It is time to get back on track! I always dreams about getting a beautiful baby, but I know that with my size it won't be healthy to get pregnant. Just as well as it can get complicated even to get pregnant at my 115kg. This gives me a huge motivation to loss weight! As a matter of fact I started on the Paleo diet Saturday the.14th of September! The scale sadly showed the number: 115kg!! So far it has been going really well! I lost 900 grams the first week and hoping it will keep going in that direction! First goal is to be under 100 kg in April! 

With the support of my amazing boyfriend I know I will hit that goal!

I will try to get back on blogging a lot of the amazing food we are eating! One thing is for sure, I will lose weight by eating REALLY yummi food!
