Grrrrr

A measly half pound: that's how much I lost this week.
I have cut out red meat and chicken, pork and dairy. I've cut down my egg and fish consumption. I have cut out refined white sugar, artificial sweeteners and coffee.
I eat a whole food plant based diet. Lots of fruits and veg, whole grains and no ingredients I can't pronounce or don't know what they are. If it sounds like a man made chemical I just don't eat it.
I have not had chocolate, cookies or chips. I have not had cake. I have had one glass of wine in a month (last night after my disappointing weigh in) and I didn't even drink it all.
So what else can I change? I need to drink more water and walk more.
We have stopped buying bottles water and have yet to buy a brita. I know our tap water is perfectly safe, I just can't get passed the chlorine smell I guess. Due to yucky weather and a sick miss V, I haven't been walking 50 mins each day either.
Soft this week I vow to get over my tap water issues and walk more without excuses.
Here's hoping next Tuesday brings a smaller number on the scale and brighter blog post.
