so far so good.

-1.5 pounds.  woot woot!

I've been weighing on Friday mornings, and I don't generally have time to talk about my feelings and food recipes when I've got to run off to school.

I've been hitting the fruit hard.  :)  Banana everyday during recess, and always some type of fruit that goes with my lunch (and there's usually veggies in there too!)  I know this has been a majority of my success thus far--not eating processed shit, so here's to hoping I keep on enjoying papaya.  :)  The farmer's market down the street is my new best friend.

My new favorite food is a kale salad with celery and cucumbers.  On top I throw leftover taco meat from the night before with sweet thai chili sauce as a dressing.  It is SOOOO good.  :)

I'm two pounds away from the weight I was at when I starting weight watchers LAST time.  Then 9 more pounds after that to get to where I was before I started juicing.  Oye, I'm not going to get it all off before Butters' wedding, but hopefully, I'll be at least 6 more pounds down by the time we head home.  (I bought my bridesmaid dress in Vegas, in November, and that bitch needs to fit!)

Running...I've so been sucking at it.  Only been going once a week.  Not exactly a way to train for a 5K.  Fuck.  I get home from work and I make dinner for Justin and then I pass out.  I always think, "I'll run tomorrow, and everyday after that."  Until tomorrow comes.  buhhhh.  Need to be better with that.

Some recipes I've tried lately:

This is pretty weird, but actually kind of good.  It's "pancakes," but you mash up bananas and mix them with an egg and then cook them like a pancake.  I threw strawberries in mine, but blueberries would be amazing too.  I put peanut butter on mine, and it was actually good.  It doesn't really TASTE like pancakes, but the texture is there. :)

I've been making these stuffed quinoa peppers for quite awhile.  Justin loves them.  The other day I replaced the quinoa with ground turkey...oh my goodness it was soooo good.  Now that is Justin's new favorite food.  And I feel like they were even more filling then with the quinoa.

I've got some Grey's Anatomy to catch up on.  :)

current weight: 154
Next mini goal: 1 lb to go!
