Russ and I have finally gotten on the same eating train. Utilizing Nutrisystem and adjusting our portions of foods we eat and making better healthier choices all around. We’ve decided we need to make this a permanent change in our life and adjust our choices to the foods we like. So We’re doing it!!

We started March 22, 2011 and as of today. Russ has lost over 35 lbs. and I’m about 23lbs. thing is it doesn’t seem like much, but Russ’s pants size went from 48 to 40 neck size from a 20 to 18 now. I’ve also gone down in inches size 18/20 now in 14/16 at my favorite clothes store. So we’re not worrying too much about the actual weight lbs, because fitting in smaller clothes is way more rewarding to see.

We are plugging away to reach our hoped for goals. Implementing eating normal foods, restaurant foods, and sticking to the NS plan too. Hopefully weening ourselves off their food and have finally learned how to balance what we eat. Surprisingly it comes down to just portions and believe it or not snacking in between the main meals. (Breakfast, Lunch, Snack, Dinner, Dessert) Russ being a man gets a snack between breakfast and lunch if he wants it.

Possibly we’ll throw together some Before/After pics here soon. It helps that we are doing it together too.
