Gluten Free Chicken Salad

You can make this chicken salad Paleo if you make your own mayonnaise. I'll settle for gluten free and stick with my beloved Duke's Mayo.


INGREDIENTS

Boneless skinless chicken breast
Garlic Salt
Honey
Carrots - diced
Celery - diced
Onion - diced
Garlic - crushed
Duke's Mayo

Sprinkle your chicken breasts with garlic salt and bake (I bake for an hour on 250 to keep them juicy and tender).
Cool and cut chicken into desired size cubes
add diced veggies and mix around
drizzle with honey and mix around some more (I'm a little heavy handed with the honey, because I like it on the sweet side)
add mayo and mix, add more mayo and mix, keep repeating until you have the consistency that you like. Serve up on some lettuce leaves or plain on a plate.

***Walnuts and/or pecans are a great addition if you like a little extra crunch!

FOOD JOURNAL  Eating well does not have to be expensive! I'm spending less than $30 (USD) a week on food and staying quite satisfied! I would also like to point out that I am not eating Paleo to part of the "In Crowd". The very thought makes my skin crawl. I have food allergies... LOTS of them, and Paleo suits my needs splendidly! Weight all time high 284 (the last time I weighed) in 2009. Fluctuated between 265 and 275 from 2010 until 2017.  Tried from mid 2017 until February 2018 to break the 250 barrier. 29 March 2018, I broke the 240 barrier. Since cutting gluten in March 2018 and going Paleo in April 2018, the weight has been falling off steadily. Broke 230 on 17 May 2018! I'm officially in (and sometimes out) of the 220's! ( I still gross myself out if I pass by a full length mirror when I'm nekked or in underwears) Hit 220 on 25 June 2018! My belt is on the last hole!  You may deduce from my weekly menus that I cook on Saturday or Sun...

I'm scared... Am I making changes too late? ***updated***

I went to the doctor and got a physical. My exam was pretty darned good! My doctor was happy with the weight loss and my bloodwork came back pretty awesome, too! My A1C came down from 7.9 to 6.3 and my LDL cholesterol came down from 99 to 70! *************************************************************************** I've been thinking about weight loss surgery for the last 20 odd years, but none of my insurance carriers would cover it. The insurance I have with my current position allows weight loss surgery, but now I don't want it because I'm doing so well on my own! I look at the side effects, and I would basically have to change my diet to the one I'm on... Soooo, what's the point in spending $5000 dollars on surgery when I can save that $5000 and get new clothes and possibly get some skin removed (tummy tuck and breast lift!)??? I'm glad that I never got the surgery, because I've seen so many people do it and then gain the weight back because...
