Nine Days Equals Seven Pounds: My Math Ain't So Good, But My Health Is

in #steemitbloggers7 years ago (edited)

@paradise-found began this challenge weeks ago and I have been absent from posting to the tag for about a week now. THAT needed to change... so here is my gratefulvibes challenge and Attitude Of Gratitude post today.

Today I am Grateful For My Husband's Health... It Has Motivated Us To Eat Healthier.. and I've lost weight!

Some Of The New Foods We Have Been Eating


I have been cooking more of the Mediterranean diet, at the guidance of my husband's primary care provider (and hubby's high cholesterol scare about ten days ago), and I have been seeing some results on the scale. Nothing physical YET... but hey, I'm ready to wait. We have officially been on this new diet for nine days and I am already down seven pounds. I AM BEYOND THRILLED!

wow that all looks amazing!

Yes... it was ALL delicious! Hubby kept saying.. "WOW! This is good!"

Yay!! I’m
Trying the Keto diet but a few days on carbs messed me up. LoL Go team @goldendawne 🤘🏽

Carbs do tend to bring me down. They make me sleepy.
I've read a lot about the keto diet, but not sure I could do it yet

The food looks so scrumptious, but the results don't lie! 7 pounds in 9 days is quite a feat. No bad at all. I think I need to change the way I eat too. This may be the ticket to a healthier life style.

We've been walking too. Missed a couple of days mid-week last week because of the snow storm. ANd Saturday night we went to his work Christmas party. they had dancing and a DJ - lol

No matter how you slice it, it is a great achievement!

Good for you! The food looks yummy too.
