Thank you for the welcome luvmyveggies!
Ok, well... Day 1 and I'm excited to do this and so glad to have you two to do it with.
But... I'm also embarrassed and disappointed to post my starting weight. But hey, you gotta start somewhere, right? I weighed in at a whopping 298 lb. I've actually been 320+ in the past so I'm glad I'm not starting there.
Dh and I also took our blood pressure and blood sugar to see how that changes. Mine is bp 119/67 & bs 113. I guess actually not bad considering how bad I've been eating and how heavy I am.
I was reading through the links again and saw Dr. & Mrs. did this years ago and lost 10 pounds in 10 days. I would be thrilled with that.
Both your menus look great. Don't worry about those cashews, no harm done.
Just had my breakfast of mashed potatoes & cabbage (mashed together). Love that stuff.
