Overall grade for today: A- I pretty much followed the plan, I did have a little white flower product via the vegan pizza crust

Every day Eating: Fruit in the morning, For lunch fish or chicken with vegetables and salad, for dinner eat reasonably, after dinner a reasonable snack.

Exercise: Walking 4 to 5 times a week about 45 minutes usually after dinner. I have been walking about 1.25 to 2.25 miles per walking session.

Foods I am going easy on: White flower bread products, fried foods, beer/wine and red meat and ketchup.

Notes: I am tracking what I eat at the end of the day. (I will post this in this blog daily) I am also tracking my walking sessions and the amount of days I have gone without eating sugar. I am weighing myself every 2 weeks.   When I eat out and out social occasions I will not follow the plan except that I will not eat sugar and I will try to be reasonable. I am taking about 2 shots a night of a mix of Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar and warm water.

The goal: To lose weight slowly and keep it off. I am hoping to lose 2 to 4 pounds per month.

The results so far: I have lost 6 pounds in the first month.

And finally if anyone has any suggestions or comments please chime in. I am all about improving this plan.
