The first part of this weight loss journey is coming to an end in a few short months. I can’t believe how fast the year has gone. I am down almost 40lbs. I have taken up scuba again and have truly enjoyed how this year has turned out. I am a new person with a new body. My journey is going to continue even after the Fresh Diet. It has been an incredible year. Starting new things, taking care of myself both physically and mentally. When you gain weight (at least for me) even though I didn’t let it stop [...]
10 pounds to go…
Hello Everyone, I can’t believe a month has passed already. This get healthy journey that I am on has been great. But I have also had some tough times. Parents that were ill and both needed critical surgeries. Mom had a valve replacement and a week later my dad had brain surgery for an aneurism they found. Having parents that are sick can be a very stressful time. Between hospital and rehab visits and work all at the same time. And with stress comes stress eating. At least for me it does. Thankfully I have The Fresh Diet. It helped [...]
Scuba Diving Trip to Bonaire!
Hi There, So many things have changed for me since my last blog entry. The holidays were a great time with friends and family. It tends to be a very hard time for most people, including me, to stay on track. There are so many distractions and temptations but with The Fresh Diet I was able to stay focused. Trust me on the actually holiday I had things that I have always enjoyed but I only did it for one meal. I was able to survive the holidays and actually loose 2 more pounds. Who usually does that? Nobody I [...]
Fit Into Skinny Jeans.
Hello Everyone, I hope everyone is doing well. I have had a very good end to the year. I am down a total of 31 pounds thanks to The Fresh Diet. I am also down two pant sizes. I was squeezing in a 14-16 but now I am completely down to a size 12 and in skinny jeans to boot. I never thought I would be in skinny jeans, let alone a size 12 skinny jeans. It is an amazing feeling. I love the way I feel when I get dressed now. Before The Fresh Diet, no matter what I [...]
The Importance of Sleep.
It has been 5 very long months. When I say long, I teach at a massage school and my class schedule has increased significantly, which I love and wouldn’t change it for anything. Also my mom has been in and out of the hospital. With that said, I have not had much sleep. What I found was that when I don’t get enough sleep not only does my energy decrease, but my cravings increase. I am craving all the bad things like chocolate, ice cream and anything else that is not good for you. Up until this point I have [...]
New Image, New Body!
It has been 4 months and I still have over 200 days left on this incredible journey. I am currently down 24 pounds. I am off from teaching the next two weeks and I am kicking my exercise up. I have had some time off of The Fresh Diet for a couple of days here and there. All for good reason. Spending time with friends and family. The good thing is that I have not gained any of the weight back and even lost a pound. That is what makes this life style change an amazing adventure. I have found [...]
21 lbs. Lost. Getting Ready for My Scuba Diving Adventure!
It is almost the end of Summer, the start of the new school year is about to begin for a lot of people and their children. For me, I am not going to school nor do I have children but it is a time for learning. I am continue to learn how to take care of myself and with “The Fresh Diet” I am able to do so with ease. The diet continues to taste great. It keeps me full through out the day. I have found after three months of being on TFD some of the meals are starting [...]
Staying motivated.
I am going into the third month of “The Fresh Diet”. There have been good and bad days. Mostly good. I am not talking about the food. The food for the most part has been really good. The variety and taste have lived up to the Fresh Diet name. Everything is good and fresh. I am down a total of 17lbs. I did hit a plateau but it is starting to come off again. There is a couple of things I would like. I would love to have the choice of granola or the oatmeal on a daily basis along [...]
15lbs down in 4 Weeks!
I am just starting week 5 on The Fresh Diet. It has been such an easy and wonderful transition from eating food that I cook myself. For a person like me that has multiple responsibilities such as teaching, having my own massage practice and taking care of an ill parent. TFD has made it so easy to get healthy in more ways then one. The first is my weight loss, I am down a total of 15 lbs. in 4 weeks. I am happy and fulfilled with my meals especially since every day I have a snack and/or dessert. TFD [...]
1st Blog Post!
Monday, May 21, 2012 was the first day of the new journey I was about to embark on. I anxiously awaited for my first Fresh Diet Delivery the night before. Not knowing what to expect, I was imagining decent food but that thought was exceeded by miles. My favorite being the mushroom with a slice of yellow tomato, mozzarella, basil and balsamic glaze. And that was only a snack. It was one the best things I have ever tasted. I am having so much fun choosing my meals and there are so much to choice from. And tasting so many [...]
