So yesterday was my first full day on NS. The food is better than I expected considering it comes out of boxes and containers. I ordered the NS women's basic plan not the Select. The select comes with frozen foods as well as the dry foods. Thus far all the meals are simple to make you just add water and put in the the microwave or add boiling water from stove top. Yesterday I only had hunger pains after my afternoon snack. Today I will try something more filling. What I like the most is that you can add to the NS entrees. For example for breakfast I had the Cinnanmon Swirl Granola bar I was in a rush grabbed in and headed to the gym to meet my trainer, for my postwork out I had a yogurt smoothie made from yogurt, 1/2 c frozen fruit, and 1/2 c light vfusion jucie put in the the blender. The bar and smoothie were all included in breakfast. For Lunch I tried the Pasta Parmesan with Broccoli. This dish had low reviews on the NS website but I ordered it anyway and added some steamed broccoli, 1tbsp of parmesan cheese and some spices. It was creamy and filling. I would rate is 3.5 of of 5. I had to go the clinical yesterday so I had lunch around 12:30 and was at the clinic until 5:30 so by the time I got home I was hungry it was time for my afternoon snack. I had 1 granny smith apple and 1tbsp of reduced fat pnut butter. For dinner I wanted something that would be filling so I tried the Chicken and Dumplings it was delicious. I added 1/2c frozen peas and carrots, 1/2 c lima beans and viola it was very filing. I didn't get my fruit serving for dinner last night and for desert I enjoyed the fudge brownie. So far so good. I know it's early in the game but I have to think and remain positive. My personal goal for this week is 2lbs but I am striving for 4lbs!
Yesterday's workout was hard. My trainer is pushing me which is a great but I know that I can do more. So I have to push even harder. I really want to succeed and I know that I can and will. I have decided that I am going to do a mid-week weigh in sunday morning just see if I am progressing. Stay tuned
