Since starting on this journey I've been moving more and more towards healthy eating choices. Not just the typical salads and less fried foods, but natural supplements as well. For example I've started putting Chia seeds in my smoothies to boost fatty acids and provide protein.
Yesterday I went to a health foods store with a friend and I got a product she had been recommending called Amazing Grass ORAC Green Superfood . Its a powder that contains freeze dried veggies and fruit and all kinds of good stuff. I also picked up some coconut oil capsules. Both products I'll link below so if interested you can check them out.
This morning I put a scoop of the superfood in a blender bottle with some almond milk, it tastes really good actually. Theres a slight gritty texture but its not that noticeable. The taste reminds me of a less sugary version of the 90's Captain Crunch Berries, which is awesome. I just started taking the coconut oil capsules and drinking the superfood today so in a few weeks I'll be able to report if I see any results.
In other news however I'm down to 287lbs! Slowly but surely getting there!

Bike!!!
The bike came in!!!! It actually was delivered Monday night after I posted measurements and such but I didn't want to triple post. Since then I've been biking nearly every day.
The bike I got was the Exerpeutic Folding Magnetic Upright Bike with Pulse from Amazon with free prime shipping. Even though there was free two day shipping the bike took a week to get here, but Amazon states this on the page that this item required longer processing time. So processing time, plus west coast to east coast shipping, and it equaled about a week, I'm not upset, but please be aware of this if you plan on ordering the same bike.
The Exerpeutic bike came in a large box and required assembly which was easy and the provided the tools needed. My box was missing a washer, but I just replaced it with on the extra I keep around the house. After the bike was put together I put on my heart monitor, turned on Mapmyfitness, hopped on the bike and went for a ride.The bike is super quiet, you can barely hear anything and the frame feels sturdy so over all I'm happy.
