Diets Suck

This diet is a pain in my butt. I know it is a good thing, but I wish I could eat! lol. Well I am not starving myself. I wish I was loosing weight like my husband. He has lost 20 lbs in 2 1/2 weeks. I am so proud of him but it sucks. I know woman loose weight a lot differently then men. I wish that wasn't the case. All I can do is wish. At least, I am trying. I have lost 5 lbs. My goal for this is for wedding and engagement bands fit again. The weird thing is the ring that I am wearing is the exact same size of my wedding and engagement band. The metal is just different on the one I am wearing (which is actually my promise ring and it looks exactly like my wedding band) then my wedding band and engagement ring. My promise ring is made of all gold so it molds to your finger. My wedding band and engagement ring are made of something other than so they don't bend or mold to your finger. Its bizarre. But my promise ring is getting looser. I am excited can't wait to put those rings back on :) !!!!! AJ on the other hand, is ring is to big now!!! Grr. If he shakes his hand it will fall off. I don't want to buy him a new ring.. His ring can't be sized because its made out of tungsten. I don't want to buy a new one because I love that ring, and it means so much! Hopefully I can figure out something or maybe he can gain weight back into his ring finger. I am so proud of him though! He looks really good. I mean he looked really good before. If you want to know what diet he is on it is the Carb Nite Solution. I am on Vemma Bode'. We are both eating low carbs. AJ is only allowed to have 30 carbs a day except his one cheat day he can have whatever he want for 8 hours! 

The diets we are on both require a ton of protein which SUCKS because you can only eat so much meat and vegetables until it makes you sick.. Sick of eating the same things! We both have resorted to having protein drinks in the morning. Premiere Protein Shake, Vanilla from Costco. AJ drinks his straight up. I can't because I think its nasty but he likes the taste. I add mine to Yasso Strawberry and Banana Greek Yogurt Smoothie that I got from Costco. That makes it awesome.

One day AJ and I went to the grocery store to see and read labels on what we could eat/drink. Mostly to see what we could drink cause we were tired of drinking water. He was tired of trying to force down zero anything or diet anything. We found Crystal Light... AMAZING.. Doesn't even taste like diet. I have lemonade, fruit punch (this is AJ's favorite), cran-apple, and strawberry kiwi (this one is my favorite). So try it! Especially, if you think diet drinks SUCK.

I have not had a Coke Cola in 3 days!!!!!!! Which is amazing. First week I haven't cheated and had two or three a week. I can only have one a week on my cheat day. That is definitely the hardest part about it. Coke  was like coffee to me. I do not drink coffee!!!

I hope you are having a great week! Thanks for reading! We are now halfway through the work week and soon the weekend will be here, and my PINTEREST PARTY... More about that later!
