Hi, this is my first attempt at a blog. It’s been 3 years since I’ve lost the 25 pounds that were really hurting my self esteem (I’m a female college senior now, am 5’5’’and weigh 130). I lost the weight over a 5 month period, almost entirely by switching from sodas and juices (very high in calories and carbs) to water and coffee. But I found that while I was losing fat, I would feel weak and constantly be hungry. Adding a lot of milk to my diet changed this (high protein, low fat and calories). I soon became sick of skim milk, which was too watery, but was afraid whole milk would put my weight back on. While visiting my sister in Boston I stopped by a Garelick Farm’s promotional event (I always go for free samples) and got hooked on Over the Moon Milk. It tastes exactly like 2% and Whole milk but has the same calories and fat as skim milk (and much higher protein). So my advice is, get rid of empty liquid calories from juice, sodas and alcohols, but keep milk to sustain muscle mass and avoid hunger. Of course, working out could never hurt either. If anyone has any feedback on this strategy, let me know.
