Ok so after the talk of eating out and my fav being Mexican food. We went to eat Mexican food at our fav spot.
The shrimp fajitas w veggies was mine. I ate two shrimp and some veggies. I didn’t eat any rice or Beans.
The portion is huge, me and hub usually split and still have left overs but he wanted to order something else this time. I have a ton of left overs but love it even left over.
The other two pics are a plate of my husbands and a plate from one of my kids. My kids both got the same thing so I didn’t take two pics. They order this huge burrito w fajita meat inside. They are both tall and fit so they don’t have a prob inhaling this type of plate occasionally

Dined out again last night. This time a French inspired restaurant in a small country town in a sympathetically restored & decorated heritage building. Stole a yummy prawn beignet from my mum’s entree (appetiser) & I had a double baked scallop soufflé in a prawn bisque for my mine. The soufflé was delicious but I could only eat half - it was super rich & didn’t sit well but still worth the bites I had. Very sad though because I left the left overs behind. Their plating needs a little refining but everyone loved their meals.

….also this has me fondly reminiscing of our stint in Brisbane when it took us a good week to get used to the terminology 😂

I was craving Mexican last night as well. But I love ❤️ street food versions above all others

No pics of my lengua & al pastor tacos. Cause I scarfed them up standing on the side walk. Street tacos are perfect bariatric portions 😂

But I heated up my bf’s leftover suadero quesadilla in a skillet for Breakfast this morning

Lengua are some of my favorite tacos! We have a birria taco truck here that serves them and they’re the best but every time I’ve been by lately they haven’t been open. 😩

Everyone posting their restaurant meals and all I can think is “I could make SO many meals for that price!”

Anyway, this was dinner- homemade skin on mashed potatoes and a burger with mustard and mayo and waaayyy too sweet pickles. No calorie tracking today but ate it all.

That was before I prepped 7 meals for my kids for the next 3 days. I find it easier to meal prep for them so they aren’t constantly snacking or wondering what to eat over school breaks.

yogurt parfaits with berries and homemade cranberry pecan granola

egg and veggie sausage mini Bagels with berries

Korean beef bowls (veggie chicken nuggets for the vegetarian) with brown rice

Pasta salad with pepperoni and salami (hard boiled egg for the vegetarian) and berries

cheese tortellini in homemade Tomato sauce

pasta salad with roasted chicken thighs (hard boiled eggs for the vegetarian)

and leftover burgers with mashed potatoes and peaches.

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).
