Agreed! Haven't had a soda in 6 1/2 years & don't miss it a bit. Have cut way back on the beer, as well (other than Kalik in San Sal!). Currently, my downfall is Maker's Mark. Love it. It's almost all sugar, however. Therein lies my quandary. It's good to take a break, once in a while, though, to let the body find equilibrium. As I've said many times, everything in moderation, including moderation.

My clothes were a little snug after the Holidays as I had put on a few pounds. I put off buying anything while working on diet and exercise. But my jeans were uncomfortable. I finally broke down and bought a pair of jeans one size bigger a couple of weeks ago. They are already too big! I got on the scales this morning and am 6 pounds down from my peak Holiday weight. Glad I only bought the jeans!
Wheat removal is going better than I thought it would, and my home stores are almost completely depleted. And I think my snacks are getting heathier because of it. No crackers or bread to nosh on, it is a piece of fruit or something instead. I've ordered a copy of wheat belly as I am interested in the theory of why some experts believe wheat is bad for us. There really is no science per se, but the theory is interesting. Worth a try for me.
Exercise habits have been a little inconsistent since the cold snap here. I don't do gyms except for strength training.

So far so good...I guess I am feeling pretty serious about reducing my triglycerides and body fat. Best to start today, not tomorrow!
Good job to you all and keep it up!

My goal is to re-start my hiking & lifting, once I get these 6 weeks behind me. Before, every time I felt that I was healed, I would re-aggravate my back & knees upon returning to my routine. It has been amazingly frustrating. So, my hope is to get this process started with the initial weight loss due to being dry. Then, I can gradually ramp up my exercise, again. I don't obsess about my diet, personally, though I do my best not to eat crap. I've always just figured that, if the caloric burn is there, the rest will take care of itself (within reason, of course!).
Amy, NICE WORK!!!
Best wishes to all.

I too have been omitting wheat and grains and felt 100% better. It is after all simple sugar and for many people practically poison to the body. And there is science behind it...I will post some links etc.
Wheat/grains are as Leslie says... like crack and VERY addictive. We are conditioned to believe that bagels, oatmeal and many other grains are good for us when in fact they are not. Fruit and veggies and nuts are... so trying to get back to them as soon as I have access to my kitchen again.
Ok in the airport so not home until late tonight. Trying to get a bit of work done...wanted to check in to say I had regressed a bit but as others have said...it is a daily battle and I'm back in the war today! kamala

Spent the last 3 days in bed on a flu diet. That ought to accelerate the weight loss, a bit. No fun...
Will give you the final result after I see my doctor next Wednesday.
Best to all!
