Hey, no judgement here. I HATE making pie crust so I almost always buy it.

Woke up at the crack of dawn this morning (probably earlier than that, actually).




It was raining so couldn't go for a run, and there was nothing interesting to watch on TV, so .... I baked a pie.




Last time I baked a pie I subbed almost all the sugar with Monk Fruit, and though the fam couldn't tell the difference, they asked that the next time I baked a pie, I use real sugar. Jeez.




Which means one serving of this CARAMEL APPLE PIE (i.e,. 1/8 of the pie below) is 350 calories. I'm going out for drinks with the gal pals tonight so I'm gonna pass on pie today. I'll have a sample if there is any leftover tomorrow. The house smelled AWESOME though.

Yesterday was 💩. I had planned an entire day of baking earlier this week but was sidelined with having to spend the day at the bank because of fraud. 🙄 I only managed 3 dozen Cookies that came out crispy because I didn’t account for the humidity from rain. And I over baked the cinnamon rolls. 😭

That’s ok, later this week I have have time to make up for it.

Death by chocolate cookies and chocolate cookies with Peanut Butter and milk chocolate chips.

200 for a Vente which is what size this is. Def an indulgence. You can get it without lemonade and it would be 130 calories. Got both numbers online.

Venturing back into egg territory! I give eggs up often because I don’t think I actually like them but they are considered a Breakfast staple.

Fluffy scrambled eggs, vegan sausage and French bread (not my plate as usual)

I've been practically living on hard-boiled eggs (and egg whites) lately, because they're a cheap and easy Protein source that work for lunch and Snacks as well as breakfast. I just bought some mini muffin molds to experiment with making different flavors of egg bites -- I'm hoping I'll be getting my surgery soon, and I'd like to have a stockpile of them in the freezer.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
