    Years ago, I was up to 165 and decided to I needed to get healthy. 2 years ago, I was down to 132 and doing half ironmans. Since then, I've struggled. I've got my training back on target and now, I need to get my food intake into shape. Here I go again.

    Eat water-rich foods

    Eat water-rich foods and you’ll eat fewer calories overall.
    A body of research out of Pennsylvania State University finds that eating water-rich foods such as zucchini, tomatoes, and cucumbers during meals reduces your overall calorie consumption. Other water-rich foods include soups and salads. You won’t get the same benefits by just drinking your water, though. Because the body processes hunger and thirst through different mechanisms, it simply doesn’t register a sense of fullness with water (or soda, tea, coffee, or juice).

    I managed 7 lbs in my last 12 week challenge. Determined to do better this time around.
    There are no holidays or celebrations to derail my efforts during the next 12 weeks except my 70th birthday on the 20th April.
    I am strong!
