Day 40- Saturday Food Crawl



Today's food crawl started at a tiny place called "River and Rail Bakery" for vegan sloppy joe's and black bean soup.  Then onward to an midday dessert at "Tahona" finally finishing up the day at "New York Bagel Co" for a cinnamon raisin bagel.  This was so much fun getting to try lovely foods from different restaurants.

Day 39- Cracker Crazy


Love these bacon and cheddar crackers. They're convenient on the go because you can find  them at just about any gas-n-sip.  And they're only 200 calories.

Day 38- Deja Vu Thursday!


After sitting down tonight to upload pics...I noticed that 2 out of the 4 meals that I ate today are exactly the same as meals I ate yesterday. My taste buds are experiencing a sense of deja vu for good reason.  My thought is that if you find a meal that you enjoy and it keeps you satisfied why not eat it again another day.  If it makes dieting a little bit easier.

Day 37- Potluck Temptation


Today was the monthly potluck day at my work.  I usually don't work on Wednesdays so this is the first time I've been bombarded with the savory smells and sweet concoctions that have been carefully homemade by my coworkers. Some of the wonderful items included chili,cream cheese/hot pepper jelly, chocolate covered strawberries, and multiple cakes which included an eclair variety. Yum.  While the others tasted a little of everything I stuck to my packed lunch and was very proud of myself for resisting the temptations that could have easily lead into a free for all calorie meltdown.

Week 5: Weight Loss Update


This week I weighed-in at 2 lbs lighter. That makes a total of 12 lbs since Jan. 1st. It's been so motivating to share my journey.  Thanks to all who are supporting me.  I couldn't do it without you.

Day 34- Taco Time


Next time you're in a rush and find yourself in the Taco Bell drive thru.  Try something from the Fresco Menu.  I love the Fresco Chicken Soft Tacos. They're only 150 each and are really satisfying.
