So here we are, at the second post of the series. The initial enthusiasm is followed by the daily battle with the inner bastard.
What have I achieved so far?
| Date | Weight | Change |
|---|---|---|
| 01/22/2022 | 235 lbs | - |
| 01/25/2022 | 233 lbs | -2 lbs |
So as you see not so much changed in the last 3 days. The loss of 2 lbs might as well be the daily
deviation.
As I mentioned in my last post I wanted to try to fast and therefore skip the breakfast. That was insanely hard and so I decided to not skip the breakfast but to replace it with something healthy: A green smoothie.
Yeah it looks much worse than it taste. Lets take a look at the ingredients, as maybe some of you might also like some healthy things for breakfast:
- Handful (baby) spinach
- 1 apple
- 1 banana
- 1/4 Avocado
- Juice of 1 orange
- (otional) a tablespoon ginger
- (optional) a tablespoon flaxseeds
- a cup of water
Blend it all in your high speed blender and drink it as soon as possible. Add ice before blending if the smoothie gets to warm.
This is a real powerhouse for starting the day. And if you just buy all the ingredients for a couple of days you don't have to think about breakfast anymore.
For lunch and dinner I try out vegan recipes but for now it's almost always something with rice and vegetables for lunch and a salad for dinner. I need to take some more time to get some good, quick recipes.
In the next post in this series I might have some good recipes for lunch / dinner that I can share with you!
Hello @chanos. I understand all too well. However, I've read numerous times over the years that skipping meals in not the way to go for a sustained outcome. The healthy drink looks delicious. I may give it a try.
Good luck on your journey. Take care.
Yeah, maybe you are right and I should just stay to healthy alternatives instead of skipping meals.
Thank you for your comment!
