Check this out! It’s the same golden delicious apple. The apple to the left was grown in NY State, and the apple to the right was grown somewhere in the U.S. The amish farmer I got my apples from didn’t speak english :( so I didn’t get to ask him any questions. BUT, when in doubt and your produce has a sticker— this is how to read it!
- If your produce has 4 digits starting with a 3 or 4, it means the produce was conventionally grown. The produce was sprayed with weed killers and chemical pesticides, meaning it was “conventionally grown, but not organic.”
- If it has 5 digits, and begins with a 9, it means that the produce was organically grown. You can be sure that this produce was not treated with any chemicals.
- A 5 digit code that begins with an 8 indicates that the produce was genetically modified (man intervened by manipulating the genes to produce a larger or brighter colored food). This produce may have been chemically treated.

The guys are making stuffing to go with lunch today at the office. It’s a huge weakness, I could eat a TON of it. Dying here…it’s going to suck going in there to eat. :(

Changes this week! I signed up for personal training..it’s actually a group of up to 6 people every M/W/F from 5:45 am - 6:45 am. My first class was Friday and I loved it! They kept stressing I won’t see weight loss from there for 5-6 weeks so we’ll see. I’m also adjusting my GW to 136 per my trainer. Once I get there we’ll re-evaluate and adjust as needed.
Screw-ups…
- Only the group class this week. I HAVE to step it up.
- Late night snacking again…almonds mostly. Have sucked on my no-late-eating goal.
- No goal/reward list yet…but I do have an idea for a goal weight reward. Thinking on it.
- Weekends are hard for me to keep on track…ate more throughout day and didn’t drink as much.
Good things…
- Overcame nervous fear and signed up for training. Yay me.
- Lots of water and hot tea
- Huge decrease in processed foods
- Felt awesome after class on Friday morning
- Love the trainer and group I’m in
- No real cheat foods, been keeping sweet tooth satisfied with fruit
Misc Notes…
- Started my food log on loseit.com and LOVE it. My log gets sent to trainer every night for evaluation so it keeps me motivated to eat right.
- Cut up an actual pomegranate this week and loved it! I’ve only had juice etc. The “seeds” made a great crunchy sweet snack. Plus I used some in smoothies. Also found out that whole uncooked cranberries are good in the smoothies too.
- Now that I’ve cut way back on processed foods I’ve noticed my trash and recycle amounts are WAY down. Something to think about.
- Fighting holiday foods already, ugh.
- Cut way back on coffee creamer! (finally)
Week 5 Goals…
- Finish goal/reward list…maybe put in 5 lb increments
- Work on no late eating
- In bed earlier, less bedtime tv. Read instead until sleepy
- Water and lemon…LOTS
- WALK WALK WALK in off training days. Either the dogs or at the gym, just do it.
I’m happy with the 1.8 lb loss this week and hope it continues! I feel SO much better since changing my eating habits and cutting out crap, it’s amazing. Just gotta keep going!!!
- Only the group class this week. I HAVE to step it up.
