YAY!

- 8.6 lbs

I’m so excited and proud of my progress this week. Weight wise I’ve certainly got a long way but I’m happy to be finally on the road forward. I’ve struggled heavily with self-control and remaining motivated in the new year and four months passed with no progress. 

I can happily say I’ve been binge free for 6 days. I feel satiated, full, and happy with the food I’m consuming perhaps for the first time ever. I’m finding that tons of fiber and leafy greens has been helpful.

I started anew April 1.

New begginings often hold a lot of signifcace for me in terms of acheieving my goals (too much actually), but this new start has been amazing thus far. I feel exhilererated, motivated and confident that I can reach my weight loss goals. 

This won’t be an easy summer, I’ll be working towards my goal body and the transformation won’t happen over night, but as I’ve observed time and time again body transformation is a marathon and not a sprint. 

I hope everyone is doing stellar! STAY MOTIVATED. What are your goals?

I’m having so much fun experimenting with new foods. I’m far from a “cook” and taste is so subjective, but hopefully others can enjoy my little creations or at least get ideas! Today for lunch I was planning on making a stuffed pepper but with ground pork instead of ground turkey like last time. However, I opted to make a different contoction instead - non-traditional jambalaya!

How is everyone doing?

These are the stuffed peppers I prepared for lunch! I combined a few random recipes and avoided adding something like rice of quinoa to cut down on carbs for the day.

I stuffed the green bell peppers (washed/hollowed/unseeded) with cut up seasoned chicken breasts. I combined the avocado, spinach and red tomatoes with egg and 1/2 the feta in the metal bowl. Added black pepper to the mix. I poured that combination into the peppers, and sprayed the peppers with pam and stuck them in the oven! I cooked them for about 15 minutes and topped with the rest of the feta feta halfway through cooking. 

A tad too browned, but decent none the less! Not my favourite recipe, but I’ll perfect it over time! I think I added to much avocado. 

I only ended up eating one, so I have a lunch or dinner for tomorrow! :)
