Worked out - Crossfit this am. Fasted workout and took bcaas. Really made a different. It was tough but I rocked it. Completed guided meditation yesterday. Check!! Yay. Feeling on track. I am sculpting my body to be what I want it to be. Everyday!!! Did my 16 hours of fast as part of intermittent fasting. Meals all day were good. Dinner I had to so weetabix and almond milk cos no other cooked food. Yikes. But I added a scoop of protein to help add to it. :-) great day. Gnite all!!! Tomorrow I wake up and do all body at row studios. Keep sculpting ladybug, keep sculpting!!!

So yesterday I had my first nutrition appointment and my initial consult with the surgeon (Dr. Galvani). I thought I was going to have to do 3 months supervised diet, but apparently I wouldn't have to (because of my BMI). However I want to do my surgery in early December (good time to be off work) and so I'll do 4 months with the NUT. Dr. seemed agreeable to my timeline, and the insurance coordinator was not concerned about my approval. The NUT was a hoot...enough energy for all of us! My husband went with me and so she included his calories/targets as well...he only gets 300 more calories than I do...I was surprised. So here is what it turns out my first month targets are: 1. 1500 Calories a day 2. between 125-150 grams of Carbohydrates (will go down in the following months but she figured out pretty quickly I'm a carb-a-holic) 3. between 80-90 grams protein 4. minimum 30 minutes daily moving 5. lose weight (no target pounds given) It was very liberating for me to get some guidelines to follow. I know that may not make sense, but I've been winging it for so long, actually having a target to shoot for that I know will ultimately result in weight loss is kind of cool. I'm using my fitness pal to log my food and we will call it up at my next NUT visit on 04 August. For the first time in a very long time....I believe I can do this! Beth
