Down a few pounds! Yay Me! I didn't record a weigh in last week. The idea was to give my body time to adjust to my new game plan. I kept my fats in the same gram range but because of the less dense carbs, the % of fats was in the 40-50% range on the pie chart. Grams are more important than %.
I had commented on a post that I have yogurt almost every day. I started thinking about cause and effect. In addition to yogurt, I have eaten a bit of other cheeses on different days. All were controlled, portioned small amounts. I am concerned about getting enough calcium, etc. But, I was having a problem with bloat and holding on to weight that shouldn't have happened. There are some sources of calcium in some plants. Supplements are not recommended according to my research. Starting with March 19th I stopped eating dairy. This seems to have made a difference.
I had already cut the grains and legumes that are troublesome to some people's systems, so the next step was dairy. The Anti-inflammatory Diet also lists sugar, but I don't do sugar except on occasion. I am not on the anti-inflammatory diet but I do want to reduce, which includes not bloating and holding on to weight. After I use up the yogurt and cottage cheese on hand, I will go a few more days without dairy. After that I plan to introduce low lactose varieties back slowly such as yogurt, cheddar, gouda, etc. to experiement on what will work with my body. Dairy at least once a week would be nice.
Excited that my weight is finally going down and trying a new strategy! I am a work in progress!

You're right, seems the dairy can be a diet buster but I am a total cheese head! I can pass on the milk (even routine ice cream), but I just love good cheese. I've been cutting it down though...allowing myself an ounce of the good chevre on salad or with roasted beets and omitting it altogether in places where I don't really taste it (like scrambled eggs). I'm really trying to make sure each bite counts in the best way. :)

I eat greek nonfat yogurt 6 days a week. Couldn't live without my milk and yogurt.

I do skim milk ever day, especially after workouts because of the high amount of protein skim milk provides. I believe it helps restore muscle due to muscle breakdown during exercise, and it keeps my muscles from being sore the next day. Add a little protein powder to the milk and you got yourself a goldmine ;-)

Ah, I am a total cheese head too. Love it! Didn't really feel like dieting if I could have an ounce a day of cheddar, mozzarella and/or at least a l/2 cup of Greek Yogurt a day. This will be tough for me but I feel I need to try.

Just FYI, calcium is not absorbed as well without vitamin D, which is why a lot of dairy products are fortified with vitamin D so It might be a good idea to make sure that you are pairing your calcium rich foods with other foods that are also high in vitamin D. Now, if that wasn't enough, vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin, which means it needs fat for proper absorption. Any fat will do, avocado, salad dressings, olive oil. Just thought I would share so that you can make sure you get the most out of your vitamins. When our bodies don't have enough calcium in our blood they will start to break down our bones, which releases that stored calcium into the blood stream, that's how people end up more susceptible to breaks and fractures. Congrats on your awesome loss!! :)

Thanks Yolanda9179! I am working on the Vitamin D angle. I do have the supplements for that and a multi-vitamin that contains both but, again, recent research shows it is not as effective as foods. Some is better than none :)

Excellent Kattay! It looks like you've found what you need to do in order to get things rolling along. I'm going to look into that Anti-Inflammatory diet since I'm trying to achieve that in my body.

Thanks Jmb3450! Sometimes it helps to shake things up a bit. If a person has a highly adaptable body :) like mine, it adjusts quickly and tries to hold onto the weight.

George Kruck MD, MBA has an article 'Foods that build strong Bones' on Healthline. Basics are : Vitamin D foods, in addition to dairy, are canned salmon with edible bones, catfish, tuna, egg yolks, in addition to fortified foods. Calcium is in many foods, including dairy, such as dark leafy greens, salmon. almond butter. almonds, broccoli, etc. Spinach has calcium but also has oxalic which makes the body unable to absorb the calcium.
Of course, we can get out in the sun more to get some vitamin D :)
