My advice, go at least 60 and 80 is better. Look for low carb yogurt its the best source of calcium, yummy and amazingly low calorie, low fat and low carb.
Make those sandwiches open faced, that second slice is another 15 carbs minimum and it isn't needed. Add a garnish. If you want to grab it let lettuce be the top. Tomatos are lovely, and cheap this time of year.
Being a lady is its own burden but in losing weight it is double so. If you can find time to start walking 10 minutes per day and build from there, it will be a great help.
Chicken is your friend. Its hard to find chicken other than breaded and fried that isn't good for you.
Play Jewish and avoid pork products. Well trimmed pork chops are not that bad but mostly you get a heap of fat with your pork. Remember each pound of fat you put in your mouth has to be lived or worked off. Just don't eat it straight if you can help it.
Best of luck as well. Write any time you need encouragement.
Thanks for your advice. I had salmon and broccoli for dinner. I told my son, salmon just doesn’t stay with me like steak...so I just had some chicken just before I read you post, “Chicken is your friend” :)
I used to walk 3-6 miles a day and rarely missed till my mother got sick. That was 2 years off, then I just lost heart. Now it is 5 years. I restarted for a while, but I didn’t seem to care anymore. If it wasn’t so darn hot I’d go back to it now.
thanks
