Taylor and Marilyn’s Adventures in Blogging!

I had an unbelievably busy week this past week and did not post as often as I had hoped so I will try and do better this next week. Here is the past weeks progress. All in all I lost 3.4lbs. I felt that was good considering I ate out twice last week (once at the Silly Goose and the chef made me a raw meal and the other at the Wild Cow and they have a raw plate on the menu) However, eating raw does not mean it is low in calories; by the time I got enough protein from nuts and seeds I had eaten a lot of calories!

While I was sitting at the Wild Cow I looked around and saw all those vegans and vegetarians and they are all have long lean bodies while I have a thick, muscular one. My doctor had told me to be careful and get enough protein because of my build so I am wondering if being thick requires more protein? Just one more thing to figure out in this eating right program!

What I have figured out so far is I eat too much fruit and not enough vegetables even though I have eaten more spinach in the last week than I have in the last month. I am working on making sure I load up on vegetables this week to see what happens. I have also managed to exercise 15 to 30 minutes a day and plan on keeping that up. Other than that, I have been at my computer most of the week, which is not really good for my health but works for my pocketbook right now.

I have also been asked to post what I am eating in detail more often so I will attempt to do that as well; though I have to admit that some of my creations are just whatever I have in the frig that needs eating. You throw it in the blender and see what happens! I will also post my weight in the morning to start the week as yesterday and today I am eating “normal”. Not too bad just not raw.
