Why I'm Breaking Up With Carbs...

My low carb journey to weight loss!
I'm addicted to fried foods, and things smothered in chili and cheese! It doesn't help that I'm from TEXAS, home of the Fried everything! I'm 5'5 and my goal is to lose about 75lbs. AND I'm getting married next October and I want to look fabulous in a wedding dress!!
I'm blogging the entire experience here. Now for most, this would be easy, buy some veggies, grill your chicken and beef for the week for lunch, dinner, etc. But here is the thing, I do NOT cook, ever! Which is probably the main reason why I'm where I'm at, I lived off of fast food, and I still do. I eat out every single day of the week, so it's a bit more challenging for me to be on this new low carb diet. Oh yeah, it's not a diet, it's a "lifestyle change". I have the help of my wonderful boyfriend who decided he'd join me on this journey. Hope you enjoy reading my blog! xoxo Gina

Day nine

Today was one of those days where nothing went right, one of those days I would have easily slipped back to my old habits, but I know that is not an option for me. Instead, I tricked myself to think I was indulging in an old favorite, nacho's from taco cabana.
Lunch: build your own bowl- salad blend-0 carbs, ground beef-3 carbs, shredded cheese-0 carbs, queso- 6oz-10 carbs, total 13 carbs, a bit much but compared to my regular beef nachos at 92 carbs, I don't feel too bad.
Dinner: didn't feel like going to eat so I worked with what I found in my mothers kitchen, ground beef that I made into a beef patty-0 carbs, sprinkled some Colby jack cheese on top-1carb, and half a can of French cut green beans-2 carbs
Daily total-16 carbs
I finally started implementing my 30 minutes of exercise today, walked the track for 30 minutes. Feel great!
