Back from the Fat

We moved cross country. We packed and unpacked twice in one year, can you say stress? I have been living in my head, disconnected from my body. Instead of being fit, I have put on some more weight by unmindful eating. I had a doctor's appointment last week, in which I was told, "You could stand to lose a bit of weight around the middle." Apparently my 'adipose tissue' around the middle does not bode well for somebody with heart disease in their genes. After two days of feeling murderous and suicidal simultaneously, I decided to take control. I am eating healthfully and more mindfully. My downfall is processed foods, those need to be cut out from my diet. My goal weight is anything below 140 lb. What I am doing to get there: Increased Vegetables and fruits Only whole grain, smaller quantities No processed foods Eating every 2 hours Drinking more water Daily Exercise Here's some of what I've been eating:
Green Smoothie: Strawberries, Kale, Celery, Granny Smith Apple, Ginger, Carrot Juice
Baked Eggplant, drizzled with Olive oil,  a little salt and paprika
Baked Sweet potatoes, with Lawry Salt(Free of Msg)
Voila!
