Being on a diet, I have to watch what I eat and drink. I am a BzzAgent, so I share things that I get offered. This time around I am sharing the Special K Protein Breakfast Shakes. I tried both the Chocolate Mocha and the Vanilla Cappuccino on different days. As part of being a BzzAgent, I do reviews for certain products. Today I did two reviews, but they were done on one of the websites that BzzAgent provided for us to do a review on, the options were Walmart or Amazon I choose Walmart. Before writing my 2nd review, I read the most helpful review, which honestly I was taken aback. Because I had no idea how many carbs are in these shakes. I don't buy many of them, so I had nothing to really compare to.

Weigh-in #2 – Exciting Journey
I'm happy to report that in my weigh-in yesterday, I lost 3.1 pounds in a week since it’s a weekly weigh-in, not sure if I am going to say it like that. Or just how much, we’ll see. So things are going smoothly. Sometimes I feel I’m losing weight slowly, but in retrospect, I think that much weight loss in a week is pretty good. The weekly weight loss varies though, anywhere from no calories lost to 5, the most I’ve lost in one week was 5 lbs, which is a lot, and the least amount I lost was zero, but what makes me happy is I have not gained any weight, yay. I already feel a difference. Especially walking up and down the stairs, was such a hurdle for me before the weight loss and I can’t tell you how happy it has made me feel. I’m still at 1,600 calories a day. Lately, I haven’t been getting 1,600, I’ve averaged from 1,200 to 1,400 Continue Reading
Going on Record! Weigh-in #1
I have already been weighing myself every week. And I think I’ll start posting how much I lose or didn’t lose for the past week. So every weigh-in is not for this past week, but I would think the week before. I’m not sure how that works, I think it’s a good idea to probably look it up. When I first started dieting, it was in January, not the 1st, I was writing my meals in an app on my iPod to keep as much track as I could. These are some of the entries. Sunday, January 5, 2014It’s a new year and I plan to start a diet, although this sounds dumb I had to put it off for about 2 weeks to finish up some fatty foods left over, is this dumb? I’m doing it like that, I’m really serious about this. I need all the help and support. Lord help me through this, I want to make it a life commitment, what time I have left. I’m turning 50 Continue Reading
