There for awhile I was feeling like I was in food freefall. The scale kept creeping up and up and up. When I reached 239, I freaked out. 240 is my new "no really, this has to stop" number. I am back down to 235.8 as of this morning. I would like to get down to my low that I reached this summer (231) and then past that. I think that, slowly, I am getting mentally ready. For some reason I just have not been willing to do the work that I know it will take.
I am still not doing WW or anything formal. I just don't feel up to it. I have to say, though, I have eaten (mostly) clean the last few days and it has been so great. I am really enjoying my food. It is so flavorful and delicious! I feel ridiculous saying this but after eating more chemicals than I am used to for awhile, the fruits and vegetables taste amazing. One of my favorite foods lately (I've eaten it 4 times out of my last 6 meals) is a take on huevos rancheros. Delicious, fast, easy, and filling. Also balanced - carbs (tortilla, salsa, and usually I eat with a side of fruit), fats (avocado and some lowfat cheddar), and protein (an egg, some lowfat cheddar). It takes about 5 minutes to make. I LOVE IT!
There are lots of posts I've had milling in my mind. I hope that they will make it online soon. Just wanted to let you all know I am fighting the good fight. I am just busy and this blog has taken a back seat to my real life for awhile. My healthy living (for the most part, more to come on that) has not. It is really important to me.
You'll have to post a recipe!!! I want a 5 minute dish!
