AH HAH!

So, lazy me, just decided to look through all the brochures and crap Nutrisystem sent to me last week. It turns out I'm NOT eating enough, as I've pretty much only been munching the Nutrisystem. Of course,  I knew you had to throw in fruits and veggies and non-fat dairy, I just wasn't paying attention to when and how much. Below are the NS guidelines.

BREAKFAST: 

NutriSystem Breakfast Entree

1 fruit serving

1 dairy or protein serving

LUNCH:

NutriSystem Lunch Entree

1 dairy or protein serving

1 salad serving

2 tbsp fat free salad dressing

SNACK:

1 fruit serving

1 dairy or protein serving

DINNER:

Nutrisystem Dinner Entree

2 vegtable servings

1 salad or fruit serving

1 fat serving

DESSERT:

Nutrisystem Dessert

Last couple of days I had added in fruits and salads, but not to that extent. I didn't have any of the other things like diary and protein.

I went back to the store, bought 5 nonfat yogurts (Wallaby Organic is really good) and more salad fixings. I received a little journal book from NS last week, which is supposed to tell me what proteins and serving sizes I should eat, but I put it in a safe place, and now I can't find it :(

I walked around 15 blocks this afternoon. I have greatly reduced pain in my heel. It still hurts, but I'm not in agony for that 15 blocks like I was, even yesterday. I bought a new orthotic because I realized the one I bought a couple of weeks ago, didn't have quite the same arch support as the ones I used previously. It seems counter-intuitive, but you get a heel support orthotic with a very rigid arch support, and you think it's going to hurt because intuitively you're thinking something soft will feel better, but really the harder the support, the better. It really is about 'supporting' the arch and not cushioning it. I'm going to try the newer ones right now, and hope they work. For years I bought a particular Dr. Scholls brand, but it looks like they've 'improved' the systems, and they no longer carry the one that has eliminated heel pain for me, for the last 10 years. Hopefully, the new ones will work as well as the older ones *crosses fingers*.
