Where did the time go??

So, I've been out of the picture for a while. I got a job, quit my job. And now I'm back to working on me. As of today I have lost 31 lbs. in 5 months. I thought this would be a bigger number by now, but I'm actually pretty happy with it. I'm not gonna lie and say I've done everything by the book, we did just go through 2 major eating holidays. And make the best Hershey chocolate pies. However I am proud of myself. I used to make 2 pies. One for the family and one I'd devour before anyone knew it was there. Lol.

My eating habits are not very structured anymore. I eat when I feel hungry. The cold wet weather tightens my band and some days I just make sure I get my protein shakes in and my liquid vitamins.

Now that I'm not working anymore I can go back to my menu plans. I'll post them again in a separate blog and please feel free to comment and give feedback.

Good to be back!!!

Congratulations on your weight loss. If you're like me, I do appreciate any weight loss as compared to the past diets. I do 2 protein shakes, breakfast and lunch, then a simple dinner salad with chicken or a soup with chicken for the other protein. Its been slow lately and like you stated 2 major eating holidays didn't help. Now for me to get back on course.

Best wishes and Happy New Year 2013.
