Cali's Low GI / GL Diet

Here we go again!

2012-09-28T23:39:00.003+02:00

Hello! It's been awhile. I've been naughty, had a very hard time kicking the sugar habit this time. Sadly I have to admit that I gained most of my weight back. Booo, bad me! Really scarey how it can creep so quickly. Though on a happy note I am much healthier this time around. I can still pump out pushups and do yoga, so I'm happy about that. For the past two weeks I've been really trying

Feeling better finally, and back on low GL!

2012-06-21T11:33:00.000+02:00

Hello! I'm still here. The past two weeks or so I've finally been feeling much better. So I've started doing much stricter low GL and workingout more. There aren't any results on the scale yet, but I did just have totm. So hopefully in another week or two there will be some results on the scale. At least for now I do notice I'm feeling more alive, well and stronger.I found it much harder to

Thirty third Weekly Weight Update!

2012-05-25T12:54:00.001+02:00

Okay I'm a little bummed out with weigh in today. I started workingout again this past week. It was over a month ago that I did some serious workout. So I've been sore this week, but I noticed that on Tuesday the scale jumped over 2lbs. Since then the scale hasn't budged. I've been eating much less than I have been, and eating much better and healthier. It's a little discouraging when

Feeling sore today from my workouts. I decided to give my body a small break, but I did go on a walk . I also did a little bit of painting today, which will most likely make my arms sore tomorrow. Working on the house is a never ending task, but it always feels wonderful having new paint or new wallpaper . Today's food was leftover so it wasn't special, but I do love leftovers, as it means I

I'm doing much better, cold isn't 100% gone yet, but it's getting there I've been able to workout since yesterday, and have done better with the eating as I'm feeling better. We've finally been getting some warm weather up here. Took it long enough but I'm enjoying the warmth and the sun now Food isn't 100% perfect but it's a start I've got a lot to lose from the gain I made in the states.

The Power of Yoga!

2012-05-09T13:37:00.001+02:00

Arthur Boorman's inpirational video Last week Esther Ekhart shared a video on facebook. It was amazing and inspirational. The video speaks for itself. The power of yoga is amazing! This is why I love yoga so much, just a small step eventually leads to something greater. The only measuring stick is yourself, and that's the beauty of

Caught A Cold!

2012-05-09T13:25:00.002+02:00

I ended up catching a cold, and it's been very hard to try to stay focused on dieting. I finally had enough strength to do yoga today, but I did sleep for twelve hours last night. I've gone through at least two and half boxes of tissues in a few days. Almost hard to believe that tonight will be two weeks since I've been back, but it feels so much longer, as I've had jetlag, and now a cold .

Bought A New Scale!

2012-05-05T19:16:00.002+02:00

Today I went to out to the city to find a scale. Luckly, the scale I've been wanting for awhile was finally in stock. I felt like it was Xmas seeing a pile of the scales in stock. Now the scale addiction will begin again!

It's Star Wars Day!

2012-05-03T12:10:00.001+02:00

There won't be a weigh in tomorrow, as my scale is offically past it's expiration date. I forgot my scale here at home was in bad shape until I tried using it recently. Now it reads 0, error, or 300 lbs (I think that is the max on the scale). I know I don't weigh any of those three numbers that it keeps showing.I tried looking for a scale locally yesterday, but wasn't able to find one.

I'm having horrible jetlag today. I finally fell asleep at 15:00 to about 18:30, then my OH woke me up, so I wouldn't be wide awake a midnight. My eating times were all over the place because of my jetlag. I didn't have the healthiest eating today, though compared to the sins I was eating while on vacation it's a lot closer to low GL. Hopefully the weather gets warmer here soon, it feels

Guess who's back!

2012-04-27T07:59:00.000+02:00

Just got back to Sweden the other night. It's nice to be back, and get ready to kick back into high gear again. Can't wait for the jetlag to be done and over with, though sadly it might take a good week or two since I was gone for so long. I'm suffering from Jetlag as we speak, I've been up since 4:30am, and only slept for two hours. But I'm not tired now, I'm usually the if I don't get

Had to put down an old friend :(

Things have been really really busy here. My mom's here, and my younger brother came to visit last week. It was really nice hanging out with the whole family. I haven't seen my brother since I moved so it was a really nice treat. Though on a not good note, it's been also very sad for me lately. One of the dogs I helped raise when she was a puppy got really ill. Her cancer kicked in high

I'll pass on that one next time!

I had a strawberry and cream scone today when I was out. I didn't think I was hungry, but I didn't have anything else with it but tea. I ended up with one of the worst headaches ever. My family believes that the scone was most likely too processed, sugary and artifical, so my body wasn't able to handle it. I thought the scone was a good idea since it was made with dried strawberries, but
