Hello fellow bloggers. I am back in action! Life has been insanely busy so I took a hiatus from blogging but I am finally back for good! Graduate classes end next week and most assignments have been completed so I will have more time on my hands to blog about the next journey I am about to take.
Over the past month, I have eaten well for the most part. Here and there I have had of overindulgence, which has allowed my weight to creep up slightly. I am currently up a few more pounds than I would have liked so it’s the perfect time to get back on track and lose these last 40 or so pounds!
I’m going to recap a bunch of photos that I took over the past month before I begin documenting my fresh start!
To start off, I made a fun lunch with WW Ritz crackers, blazing buffalo chicken, a LC light swiss cheese wedge, squirt of mustard, and a tomato slice on top!
I discovered the most amazing fresh blue cheese ever! I never bought it fresh from the deli counter and I’m in love! I will only buy this type from now on! For an entire week I had a romaine salad with blue cheese and various other toppings! It was sooo good!! This specific salad above had blue cheese, tomato slices, carrot shavings, and grilled chicken!
Basically the same thing!
And one more time…
This one had almonds in it instead of chicken! I won’t bore you with a more pictures of similar salads…Told ya I was am obsessed ;)!
Jhon and I finally used our waffle maker and made fresh waffles! They turned out massive so I had two and covered them with raspberry jam, banana slices, and half of a diced pear!
I also tried making pizza on light Engilsh muffins with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese. I added some garlic powder and dried oregano for flavor!
I also made my own chicken salad with fresh chicken! I added onion and celery and mixed it with a little mayo, relish, and dijon mustard! I served it on top of a light English muffin with cherry tomatoes on the side. It came out good, but I have to perfect it! I’m thinking of trying it with plain Greek yogurt!
Amazing combo as always! A light English muffin with almond butter and banana slices!
This awesome combo was something new that I tried! It has 3 egg whites between a light English muffin. On one side of the English muffin is raspberry jam and the other has a light swiss LC cheese wedge! Delicious even though it sounds kinda strange!
This combination I had a bunch of times with various different fruits. Pineapple was the chosen fruit that day! This breakfast never lets me down!
During this past month, I went to Whole Foods with a friend of mine who had never been there. We found this AMAZINGLY delicious and cheap french vanilla almond granola. If you can try this, do it! You will NOT regret it!!
The same night we picked up food for dinner because we had four hours of class ahead of us! A bunch of different things were combined in a box, some were good, some not so much. My favorite was the salad with goat cheese, craisins, and apples! I could definitely eat a whole container of this salad! The goat cheese was so creamy and fresh…MMM!
This scrumptous taco salad Jhon and I made for dinner one night. Romaine lettuce on the bottom, topped with tomatoes, turkey taco meat, cheddar cheese, salsa, and sour cream!
That pretty much covers all the pictures I have! Now onto the healthier lifestyle I’ve been working on since Tuesday, April 17!
