Detoxifying and Losing Weight

The good news is that I went walking yesterday. I decided to go to the beach since it was such a beautiful day. My daughter and I loved it! The other good news is that I have been slowly working my way off of sugar since I understand this to be one of my major issues. The only sugar I've been having is the sugar in fruit. My husband has a keylime pie in the refrigerator that is so tempting. I can eat the whole thing, but I have been extremely impressed with myself and haven't eaten one little bit of it.

O.K. I have to change my thought processes since just the idea of keylime pie is making my mouth water and it's still technically breakfast time. So, on to detoxifying... I've been reading this book that talks all about detoxifying and how much the foods that we choose to eat work against our desire to lose weight. I am not following this to the letter, but have been doing well on increasing my vegetable intake and in eating fish and chicken breast instead of red meats.

I've lost one pound this week, a good thing since I hadn't seen movement on my scale for over a week now. I only have four more pounds to go before I get out of the 180s. I can't wait to see the weight come off. I know this is a good thing for my health and for my family's health. If mommy isn't healthy, then the rest of the family will suffer, right. Anyway, this is me reporting on walking to lose weight and detoxifying. Until next time...
