Day 23, (August 28, 2012)

So this morning started off well. I actually had 3 meals today and a snack and shared with my son everything I ate and he went nuts over it.

Breakfast: 5 scrambled egg with spinach, cheddar and nutritional yeast and chili paste



Snack: "noodled apples" mixed with yogurt, apple spice, cinnamon and almond butter




Lunch: a very freaking awesome Iced Mocha Frappe! almond milk, ice, jay robb protien powder, cocoa powder, chocolate raspberry stevia


Dinner: Definitely a keeper. Coconut  Chicken Broccoli soup. This was sooo simple and incredibly delicious.Boil Chicken breast, Blanch broccoli and garlic, strain and throw in blender, add salt pepper,  1/2 can of coconut milk, and 1 cup of hot water, blend till smooth, i saved half of my chicken diced and 1/4 of my broccoli to have texture to my soup instead of just a puree. It was incredible. I also added chili paste for my flavor and color. I think a shot of lime or lemon woulda been a great addition as well.



Going to bed super stuffer. It was awesome. My son ate almost a whole cup of the soup by himself AFTER he had eaten his diced up chicken and blanched broccoli. He even cried when I turned away from him since he wasn't finished yet. Like a little bird he ate it all up. He was soo tired but so hungry.

My little tip of the day or week or whatever. I wanted to give alittle insight or background as to why I use alot of apple cider vinegar or chili paste. Both are known fat burners. Especially the Apple cider vinegar. I was once told that mixing 2T in a glass of water with some cayenne pepper was like taking a jolt of fat burner. Well to be honest, I couldn't stomach the vinegar. I tried everything. from freezing it in tiny cubers wrapped in spinach leaves so i could swallow it without tasting it. to pill form, while pill form is definitely easier, i actually acquired a taste for it by mixing my 2T in a 32 oz cup of water and sweetening it with flavored stevia. I acquired so much a taste that I am now very very heavy handed when making it. the cayenne pepper too, powder that shit is gross in a drink, but the chili paste has also been an acquired thing, started very small and now it is also added like water. But likely you will see most of my meals incorporating both of these things not only because i have grown to love the taste,, but because they are high fat burners. Hooray for melting fat!!!

Stay tuned for my experiments in my dehydrator tomorrow. I am out. Nite All!

Day 22, 3rd Weigh In (August 27, 2012)

So weigh in this morning wasnt too bad. I lost just over 3lbs this week so I am happy that it wasnt a stall or a gain. Hooray! Dancing a small jig because I have officially left the 270's and am now anxiously awaiting leaving the 60's. For a total of 25.4lbs down and 17.2 more to go till I hit my first goal. Its hard to believe I lost so much water weight the first week. I am happy to see that I am leveling out though. I just hope next monday continues with the downward spiral instead of the inevitable platuea. The hardest thing in the world for me is to continue what I am doing when the scale refuses to budge. it makes it too easy for me to fall off the wagon even if only for alittle bit. I cant afford to undo anything I have already done. I am just over 10lbs away from being pre baby weight for my 2nd baby. I AM DETERMINED!!!!





I didnt really eat well today because of guilt.

Breakfast: Nothing

Lunch: rediculously large broccoli slaw same as yesterday but the chicken was baked in the BBQ of americas spice instead of boiled. mixed with one avocado, chili paste, genorous splash of Apple cider vinager, and lucas and gomasio spice.


Late snack: 1 grilled spinach and cheese sammich on ezekial bread, toasted with coconut oil, and a grapefruit.


So that was all I have eaten today and lets just say that I have felt so guilty about eating the 2 slices of bread that I havent been able to bring myself to eat anything else. I have only had two waters today and no where near enough apple cider vinegar to drink. Of course To be honest I am really not that hungry right now anyway. But still guilt guilt guilt. I promise to myself to do better tommorow. I do have enough food to get me through just to lazy to cook anything hense the raw today minus the sammich. I am looking forward to Whole foods on wednesday and farmers market. I am desperate for some more farm eggs, I think I am going to have to get another 2 flats. 60 eggs just barely last us two weeks. i miss my boiled egg snacks. I think that or a spooful of nut butter keep me out of trouble.

Now on to week 4 of my journey, it is hard to believe it has been that long already, it is actually going by much faster than I anticipated. Nite All!

Sunday, August 26, 2012

Day 21 (August 26, 2012)



Breakfast: coconut, nutmeal, flax, faux cream of wheat with strawberry preserves mixed in, omg yummy



Lunch: 1lb of brocoli slaw that had red cabbage and carrot added to it, mixed with 1 avocado, apple cider vinegar, lucas spice, some gomasio, and chili paste


Dinner: a Matcha green tea Protein Frappe YUM! Oh so I wasnt really hungry after the huge lunch so and I had been dying for a matcha frappe so I figured I would kill two birds with one stone. 12 oz of vanilla unsweetened almond milk, 12 oz milk kefir, 1 scoop vanilla jay robb protien powder and 1 Tablespoon of Matcha, 8 cubes of ice and blended till creamy frothy and delicious!!!


 
Snack: I wasnt hungry hungry, I just had munchies and was wanting salty and crunchy so I made some awesome kale chips. Sprayed some kale with coconut oil spray and sprinkled on some nutritional yeast to give that cheesy flavor and baked in oven on low for about 20 minutes until crispy. Crispy, cheesy, munch-a-riffic, and HEALTHY!!! That definatly helped me over the craving hurdle tonight.


I just wanted to post a picture of my frequent used bowls to give you an estimate on how much I am literally stuffing my face. I am normally not starving i dont think ever lest i am going through cravings.


The inner bowl is the smallest holding only 3/4 cup or 6 oz, this is the one I normally will have ice cream or any dessert.

The next one up is 1 3/4 cup or 14 oz this is for what I consider a small meal or a side dish of something, possible breakfast like oatmeal or cereal of some sort or maybe scrambled eggs.

The next size up is my big bowl. This holds about 24 oz filled to the brim. I normally use this for soups, faux noodles with sauce, or sauteed veggies, back in the day this was my cereal bowl. I also will use this to hold watermelon.

The last bowl is my rediculous bowl. This monstor is 80oz, also known as a serving dish. I got several of these when staying at the RMD house from nothing but noodles when they were catering for a 28 families. I got to keep the bowls and use them for my salad. Seriously, 3 cups of salad is only like 20 calories if you are using the high quality salad like dark greens and not the nutrient absent iceberg lettice that is all water and thats about it. 20 calories? seriously I fill this bad boy to the top with my salads and that is my meal. I never come away from that hungry. This is the bowl I serve my raw greens in. That is about the only thing I will allow myself to eat in this bowl though because it is so big. Maybe the once in a blue moon serving of popcorn as well. But honestly I only have popcorn when I visit the inlaws. It converts to waaay to much sugar so I try to avoid it except for special treats. When you see a picture of a salad though ...yeah, it is in my 80 oz bowl or 8 cups of lettuce.

I am soo sorry I have not been keeping up with my blog so I tried to get caught up today and instead of making one insanely long entry from the 16th to the 26th, I decided to just post my entrys and back date. They are very very short though truely just what my meals were for the day.

I am very excited to see what my morning weigh in is. I dont feel like I have lost anything this week. I know I am not quite getting my water in each day. I am getting about 3 to 3 1/2 of my 32 oz cups in so not bad, but not a goal. This week is going to be a good one though. I look froward to Wednesdays playdate and the opening of a whole foods. It is indeed going to be a good week and all kinds of exciting girly stuff should be coming in the mail as well as some major baby fluff for my daughters butt. I am unsure if I am just going to post pictures, or if I am going to go ahead and just post a new video on Youtube. It is soo exciting so I am just holding my breath till it gets here, hope I dont pass out!

Thats it for today, wish me luck on the morning scale, I feel deserving of whatever it has too offer me. Nite all!

Day 18 (August 23, 2012)



OKay so today was a cheat real bad due to cravings day however, I did it as healthy as I possibly could. I made several bars of coconut oil chocolate candys, I took about 5 or 6 cups of frozen fruit and 4 bananas and made it all into ice cream, so pretty much all day I ate ice cream and chocolate from breakfasy, snacks, lunch and dinner. Although I was getting tired of the frozen fruit by late night so I made a protien shake with almond milk and milk kefir so I had some sort of protien for the day since all ate was fruit all day. though i did have a few pics this time.

I expected a much smaller loss this week due to the serious lack of water and back meal choices. I am hoping it does continue to go down though, I am soo close to being out of the 270's now hip hip hooray!

I don't have many pictures today as I had a protein shake for breakfast an lunch cuz I haven't been really all that hungry and was on the road a bit so not much time to pack anything. I just made a large one and then sipped on it most of the day.

Day 14 (August 19, 2012)

I am soo tired today. Not feeling well at all with out drinking as much water as I should be even today was hard and I am starting to feel it. I only got in 64 oz today and that was barely.

Breakfast: 4 egg scramble with nutritional yeast and chili paste and 1 bunch of baby bok choi steamed with alittle lucas


Lunch: 2 boiled eggs

Dinner: cucumber noodles, 1 boiled egg, rinsed cottage cheese ( I thought our cottage cheese was too watery so I just rinsed it entirely), topped with 2T of homemade raspberry vinaigrette and topped with gomasio and roasted black sesame seeds ( surprised me that even my son LOVED this and ate a good bit with me.

All mixed up together and sprinkled with alittle roasted black sesame seed.

Just a very long day and still not enough water and it is affecting my milk production. I am just having a hard time getting myself to drink and I don't know why. Hoping for a decent new week weigh in. Wish me luck for the morning despite the horrible things I have done this week. Pictures for yesterday will come in a few days. I had to take the pics on my phone and forgot to send myself the photos first so I have no way to get the photos out since i got a new phone.

Saturday, August 18, 2012

Day 13 (August 18, 2012)

So, today was a horrible cheat kind of day, I did well in the morning, but DH called on his way home from work saying we were going to Tomi's for dinner which is my favorite Chinese restaurant. there is absolutely nothing I could have possibly ordered that would have been a better option aside from not going at all. SO I decided I was going to moderate how much I was going to actually eat.

Brunch: 1 protein pancake with savory spices and enough water to thin it completely and made it like a tortilla, then added 3 scrambled eggs, 2T ham, and 1 handful of shredded manchego cheese

appetizer: DH and I shared an order of flash fried zucchini with a ginger sweet and sour sauce.


Dinner: flash fried chicken in a spicy sauce with broccoli, bamboo, onions, zucchini, and carrots and about 1/2 cup of rice in total


Dessert, (5oz in total) half greek yogurt vanilla honey frozen yogurt and 1/2 pomegranate sorbet from tcby topped with a small spoonful of honey granola.


Snack 2 squares of Dagoba chili and coco nib chocolate. I will take a picture so you can see the bar that I am still working on and have been for about a week now.

*Side tip: if you are using any kind of cheese, try to stay away from pre shredded and shred your own, chemicals and starches must be used to keep your cheese from sticking together when buying it preshredded. Not by a whole lot, but the calories do end up and can effect you if you are trying to stay away from the excess starches.*

Yes I cheated. I felt miserable afterward, but when my husband asked me all I could think was hell yeah I am going to cheat! I haven't had Tomis since before my daughter was born. AND I thought since I am cheating I am having ice cream too! so yeah it was bad.

When we went out to dinner, obviously everything smelled amazing. DH and I split in half the appetizer. my portion I split in half so technically I only ate a quarter of it. While I was eating, even though it was indeed tasty. I felt guilty. Not guilty enough to not still tell myself I was going to eat ice cream, but still I felt it. Then when I was eating dinner I found I was eating and wishing there were more vegetable in it. While the sauce was incredible I could taste heavily the sweetness in it from sugar. I only ate half and mostly the veggies,and only half the rice. I gave the rest to the ball and chain and my son.

then we went for a walk, it was soo nice outside and they had live music, when we walked by them we found the tcby and it was over. I had to, I really wish I woulda had the will power to just not walk in the store at all. I tasted only 3 flavors i thought I would like, the samples i made as small as I could get them and I literally just licked to taste and gave the rest to DH. I picked the two I wanted and literally just added a glop of each and then sprinkled on some granola, it came out to just under 5 oz, that is how they get you. they charge by the oz, but then they don't allow you to scoop out what you want, they just have it in a machine that dispenses too much and too fast. the containers are also ridiculously huge. when I looked in my cup, i felt like i had nothing in their smallest cup, yet it still weighed what it did.

When I got home I spent more time pumping and after a while i ate 2 more pieces of the chocolate. On a bright note, it has taken me more than a week and I still have 2 more pieces left over from what was a tiny bar to begin with. I have only had the water from the dinner and I had a milk kefir later when we got home, but I know I am going to have this as small set back and need to go back to clean eating again. I am exausted and going to head out. Hope you all have a great night. Nite All!

Day 12 (August 17, 2012)

Ok, so today was a pretty uneventful day for food.

Brunch: 3 boiled eggs

Dinner: 1 jay robb milk kefir and almond milk shake with frozen peaches, strawberry, pineapple and mango

Total water was only 64oz


  I dont know what it was but I wasnt very hungry at all today which is very very unlike me. Everytime I heard someone on tv mention food. I thought to myself, oh that sounds soo good, but honestly I had to force myself to drink the shake. I just wasnt in the mood for food I guess. The funny thing is though. If I wasnt watching what I was eating and even though I wasnt hungry had there been things in the house like chocolate, burritos, chips, pizza and or pizza rolls, I am more than positive I would have eaten them just cuz they sounded good and I am sure they woulda smelled awesome. Definately makes me think about how much I eat when I really dont want nor need to.

Well thats it folks, Thank god it is the weekend. I look forward to Monday weigh in. Hope everyone has a great one. Nite all!

Thursday, August 16, 2012

Day 11 (August, 16, 2012)

OK so today was a sucky day for eating right cuz i was out and about the whole day.

Breakfast : nothing

Lunch: Late lunch but HUGE had Jason's deli, in fact so full I wasn't hungry for dinner, but I made myself make a shake anyway. No Nos that I ate at Jason's was a very small ice cream topped with granola and some hummus, oh and an oatmeal cookie. Not necessarily a bad thing, but I am trying to limit the starch and carbs dramatically the first 30 days. oh well, at least they are very small cheats.




Dinner: Jay Robb vanilla protein shake, 8 oz of milk kefir, mixed with 8 oz of unsweetened vanilla almond milk and 8 frozen strawberries blended until ultra smooth with jay rob and that was dinner

 Today actually was an easier day. I don't know if it was because I wasn't home and running from here to there. Oh yeah I did have one other snack if you can call it that, I had a sample of mojito quinoa at earth fare. It was a very long day and I have been stressing about my milk production. Today we went to pick up a hospital grade pump in hopes that it will bring it back up. I do realize that I am STARVING after I pump though so I try to eat either an egg or some nut butter right after. Something higher in protein.

  Water. I wish I liked water. I don't, I have a hard time EVERY time I need to force myself to drink. I only mention it again today because I know I only drank a 32 oz container of it and that was it for the whole day. I actually only made the protein shake because I hadn't had enough to drink, well that and I didn't really feel like eating but sure I needed the calories. This morning I was devastated. I went into the kitchen and when moving things on the kitchen counter I accidentally bumped my bottle of grape stevia and it fell to the ground and broke. I am so heartbroken about that.

 I NEED my stevia and here is why. I don't like water. I can drink the daylights out of soda, teas, juices, anything flavored really, but may of those things are very high in calories that I just don't need not to mention the sugars and the artificial sweeteners that can be just as bad if not worse. SO I am addicted to flavored stevia. It is made of an herb and not much done to it. I like it because i only need to use a very small amount in order to make my water taste like anything else and since you use such a tiny amount the price isn't bad for what they ask for a whole bottle. So my todays trek was to earth fare to by some more, this time in berry flavor. YUMMY Stevia is my friend, the root beer makes excellent drinks, the grape, berry, orange and apricot also make tasty soda type flavors, the vanilla, chocolate and raspberry chocolate and hazelnut and English toffee are great for coffees and candies.

  Just little tip for those who have a hard time pushing the water. I also tried to make it easier for me by telling myself that I need to finish x amount of cups or bottles. Most of the time I use a 32oz cup, I know I have to drink 4 of them to "finish" my day. If I use my 24oz bottle I tell myself I need to drink 5 of them. I flavor each bottle or glass and just try to do it. I makes it easier when I am not trying to look at a gallon and just drinking from that. Every time I look at a huge bottle it makes me get all flustered thinking, I have THAT MUCH more to drink?!? It is just too much for me and then I end up walking away from it entirely. So for me it works easier to just make several smaller glasses.

Well that is it for this evening. Thank god/ I cant believe it is already Friday. That is so bizarre to me but it is what it is, I cant wait to see what the scale fairy has to bring me on Monday, just a few more days to go. God willing I can keep the momentum up. Sleep well and Nite All!!!

Day 10 (August 15, 2012)

Fun filled day of boredom

Breakfast: 2 boiled eggs


Snack: apple with a sliced apple and maybe 4 Tablespoons of homemade almond butter and cinnamon

Lunch: Leftover veggies from the stir fry the night before with 2 poached eggs on top and chili paste




Snack: half a fruit Popsicle

Dinner: 1 jayrobb shake mix with 16oz total, half milk kefir and half almond milk, other half of frozen Popsicle

Snack: 1/2 cup of cold chocolate steel cut oats with salted caramel sugar free syrup,(that stuff is satan)

Snack: 2 pieces of dagoba chocolate in xocolatl it is dark chocolate with cocoa nibs and chiles in it, yum!

  Soooo... Yeah... I eat alot of eggs, I realized that something so small and simple can help me when I am going through the worst of cravings, they give me energy, they take away the cravings sometimes and even hunger pangs. That or a spoonful of nut butter. Or sometimes I mistake hunger pangs for actual thirst, because many times I can just drink a big ole 32 glass of water and feel full and not really want anything else at all.

  I feel like the cravings I am getting now are just a desire to eat. It is getting alittle easier but I still have make or break moments. I keep telling myself I want to be able to do little things, like cross my legs, or see my toes. So far I am proud that I have almost made it through my second week. This week indeed has flown by and I find that crazy. I pray this gets easier cuz there have been too many days where I have though, i don't want to do this, I really just want to eat... Insert food item here. I keep telling myself that once it is all completely out of my system I will feel so much better and the cravings will go away completely like they did the first time. 

Tuesday, August 14, 2012

Day 9 (August 14, 2012)

It was soooo good. Don't let picture sizes full you, it was alot of greens.

Monday, August 13, 2012

Day 8, 1st weigh in (August 13, 2012)

Hooray 17.6lbs down and 25 more to go till my 1st goal!

I cant wait till next Monday to see the next weigh in. Nite All!

Sunday, August 12, 2012
