food and hair

Ground Beef.... Green Beans.... 

Avocado...

This is the plate that gets more "likes" than

all my meals - and me - combined!

Here, I put some peppers and onions into a

Mini Food-Processer... Made a pepper mash -

Ground Beef.... Green Beans... yum!

The gelatin is making my hair and nails grow....

It's not a complete protein. But is a good supplement.

Yesterday in CrossFit

My avg HR was 120....

My max HR was 180!

The WOD was "Helen"

400 meter run + 15 squats + 12 ring rows...

I did this twice in 10 minutes!

* "Helen" [the WOD] actually has kettle bell swings...

But we had already done those in class! *

One year ago (pink)  and now (black).

My weight is never seeming to go down.

I still wear a medium.

And it is so loose I might lose my garments!

I just don't feel "small."

But I know that weight is nowhere near

a goal that I should ever want again!

For better or worse.

I went to try on some clothes...

I really don't wear a 48 men's anymore!

Onward and Downward!

gellin'

My gelatin from Amazon got here super quick (link)

I've had the Knox type before (link)

Did you know gelatin was once called 

"Sparkling Calves Foot Gelatine"!?

This is from Great Lakes (link)

They have pork gelatin,  and beef.

Where as Knox is said to be made from both.

On one of the FaceBook Forums I am in,

they said that if you don't eat lot of organ meat,

it's good to mix up the proteins... so while gelatin

is not as complete, it does add a little to the mix.

Just don't let it set up in a cup!

I add it to coffee, tea, and even broth.

Might just make an aspic one day!

Changed my cell phone picture...

I woke up the other day and just didn't identify 

with the older, picture any more..

 The heavier image of me.

That WAS on my cell phone - 

all this time. No more!

An old nurse friend of me told me how happy 

she was about my huge weight loss -- BUT

(There's always a BUT, eh?)

WHAT about my cholesterol?

My triglycerides?

I told her my numbers (link)

And she said she didn't know.....

And mumbled and walked away.

Bye!

They never know what to say.

So they stick to their old ways....

Even if they (sadly) are not working!

Avocado, Bacon, Eggs, 

Onions, Peppers, and a hint of cheese.

Still at or around 4 % pufa...

Not a bad dinner... for weight-loss!
