3 January 2014 251.2 lbs.
Yesterday I didn't eat any breakfast; too busy. For lunch I had some MorningStar sausages and deviled eggs. For dinner I had brown rice and stir fried vegetables...a lot. Last night I felt hungry but strangely satisfied. This morning I won't have breakfast as I am going to have my "Cardiac Perfusion Scan"; stress test with some isotope injected to see how the blood flows.
Getting Started
Yup, I've finally come to the conclusion I need to make some changes. This is how I looked at the end of our mission in Africa. Not sure how much I weighed then. I came home at 260 lbs. Yesterday I weighed in at 252. I am taking Lisinipril for high blood pressure 140/90 and Simvastatin for high cholesterol. I have been experiencing severe heart pain and took a stress test two weeks ago. It came out normal and am scheduled for a more intensive one tomorrow. However, the worst is a significant lack of energy. So, as I have learned as a bishop, people make changes better when they hold themselves accountable and that is what I am doing here. I am committed to losing at least 30 pounds and improve my health with better eating. Attached below is a list of good and bad foods I have researched. Hope they might do others some good. I am also going to keep a daily progress record.
