Before Pics

I forgot to take before pics!!!
So here are my 1 1/2 weeks in pics ;)

I think it will be good to have something to compare to. I see all kinds of people do before and afters, so I thought why not.

I am really feeling the burn with The Biggest Loser walk 2 video, so it must be working right???

Proud of  myself, tonight I packed my supper. We have supper at our church every Wednesday, for $4 we have 3 meal choices and then for $2 we can have fries or onion rings. Tonight the main meal was a chicken leg and pan fried wedges. I don't like dark meat, the soup meal was potato and ham soup and flaked ham sandwich. I am trying to stay away from creamy soups and the potato plus the 2 slices of white bread was a lot of carbs for me. The kids choice was pogo  and smiley fries.....ummmmmm....yes please!!! LOL I would have really enjoyed that, pogos are sooooo good!!!
Instead I packed a big salad.......romaine lettuce, cucumber, tomato, 1/2 chicken breast diced, crumbled feta and a balsamic dressing sprinkled with a few roasted unsalted sesame seeds.....it was delish and satisfying!
I then snuck out just before bible study started and bought a coffee, 1 cream, 1 sugar. I forgot to pack a no bake protein bite , so at the coffee shop I bought a 100 calorie dark chocolate bar, I had 1/5 so only 20 cals :)
Because I knew I was using the last of the chicken tonight and having no breads, for lunch I made a yummie smoothie and had a piece of 12 grain bread toasted with a thin layer of real butter. What???? BUTTER!!!! Yes, butter. It is all natural and I only used a bit. Our bodies were created to digest real food, not a bunch of man made chemicals, that is also why I don't use sweetners like aspartame and splenda. I am going to get some raw sugar for my coffee so I can get off the processed white.

Here is my very simple yummie smoothie recipe:
2 cups frozen fruit. ( 1 cup raspberries and 1 cup mango and strawberry)
1 serving of vanilla Greek yogurt
add almond milk until it is the consistency you want.

 Very filling and good for me!

So, the other day, maybe a month ago, Jason and I were talking about the yummie treats you used to be able to get at Tim Horton's, eclairs, bow ties and more. Look what I just saw on my fb news feed..........

     Mmm hmm right when I can't have it!!! LOL

My friend asked me if I am starting to feel better. To be honest the answer was not really....I think it will come, I need to be more scheduled and really be sure to get all my water in everyday. I do feel good that I am losing weight, I mentally probably feel better in that sense.

That's all for tonight........sweet dreams <3 xo
