Day 5 FT'ing

I don't like my picture taken. Ever. I rarely like the way I look. This was taken about 1 month ago, and I've given up a few lbs. since then. (Those are grilled poblanos and tomatillos cooking on the grill. Just FYI...it was great salsa.) But I like my happy face here. I was cooking for my family, loving on my grandbabies, and enjoying CA living.  My son lives in paradise.

I'm still FT'ing it.  I'm not losing a lb/day, but that little needle on the scale is moving-Yee Haw! 
Happily, I'm not missing the grain carbs-no cravings. That's a blessing-and considering I'm totally hormonal this week-I'm witnessing a miracle!

Here's my food for today(remember I'm not the letter of the law FT'er)

My 'ricotta thing' w/ walnuts
Lunch:

We're all doing it-whatever way works for us. Thanks for your support-
Blessings,
Jeri

  1. All your food sounds great Jeri. Love the picture. Please don't expect to lose a lb a day. If it happens that would be great. But don't be disappointed if it's less. The trick it to not quit. Have a great day :-)

  2. Jeri, what is your ricotta and walnut thing? Sounds yummy and I am looking for some new ideas. That is some BBQ and you look great standing next to it. I just bought and grain/wheat free recipe book. I might stick with this if my skin keeps on improving.

  3. Whoo Hooo, you are doing awesome. I also love mashed cauli, although I am positive my hubby would never say he preferred it (he is a potato loving boy from Idaho lol)

    I also love your pic you look very happy :)

  4. I know exactly what you mean about not liking yourself in pictures. I also rarely like how I look in them. However, I usually like everyone else's picture and I think yours looks great! I'm not missing the grains/carbs too much either right now. I did miss the convenience of the Uncle Sams cereal in the morning at first, but now I'm getting used to cooking myself something, or eating some kind of protein/fats leftover from the last nights dinner. ANY move on the scale is welcome to me!!

  5. I think you look great! Wish I could get anyone else in my family to try the mashed cauliflower - they all say they don't like cauliflower. Any ounce gone is one that's never coming back! Have a great weekend!
