BENEFITS OF TOFU

What is Tofu?

Tofu, or bean curd, is made from dried soybeans that have been ground, filtered, and boiled. It comes in different styles—from the very soft Japanese silken to extrafirm (usually your best bet). Tofu is packaged in a range of ways, from unrefrigerated boxes to blocks floating in giant, open pails. Go for tofu packed in water, inside sealed plastic tubs, in the refrigerated section of the store.

Why Eat It?

In addition to being wonderfully inexpensive, tofu is high in protein, low in fat, and very low in saturated fat. Other healthy benefits of soy: Some studies show it can lower cholesterol and may even help prevent certain types of cancer, including breast and prostate. Soy is best eaten in moderation and as a whole food—such as tofu or tempeh—since concentrated soy supplements contain higher levels of phytoestrogens (estrogen-like chemicals that occur naturally in plants), which may actually increase some women’s risk of breast cancer. One daily four-ounce serving is an excellent addition to a healthy diet.

My Before and After

The first picture is of me last summer, maybe in July. It’s been almost a year, and I have been pushing myself to get fit, stop being lazy, and to watch what I fuel my body with. It has been a long journey and I hope that I can be proof that anything is possible. If you want it bad enough and you are willing to work hard for it, then it is achievable. The second picture is of my body today. Stronger, leaner, fitter. I went from barely being able to run to being able to run a 7 minute mile. Good luck, happy summer, and remember: no one has ever drowned in their own sweat:)

This is my mom -85 lbs lighter. She’s 39 years old and she looks better than ever. She suffers from fibromyalgia and sarcoidosis. She has a working husband and four kids. She also has two jobs. What’s your excuse?

Get out there and kick ass.

This is my before and during. I am not where I want to be yet, but I’ve come very far in my one year journey. Up until now I’ve lost around 45 kg!

So, I discovered today that I’m absolutely terrified of back photos. I hate them. I never noticed what my back looked like, until I took that 1st picture, because I never looked at it. Well, today I decided to get over that fear and take another back picture, because I’ve only taken front ones this entire journey. 

Well, here ya go.

20 lbs difference, 180lb to 160lb. 

I’m still terrified of these pictures, but now I have more motivation than ever to lose the next 10 lbs in this 6 weeks!

Wish me luck, and stay strong!
