50 pounds lost, but lost a month
I went to update my weight log and I noticed I haven't logged my weight since the end of August!
September was spent maintaining...
But I'm back on track! (Well... except I'm going to visit family this weekend and what I will eat = what they eat)
I'm finally down 50 pounds though, which is fantastic, I just wish September had been better for me and I could have reached this point sooner!
I'm living by myself again, though, which I think is the best scenario for any dieter. I simply refuse to buy junk food... if I don't have it, I can't eat it! Of course, I did buy some 100 calorie Dorito packs and fruit snacks... but when those are gone, that's it! While the points value for these things are low, I've decided that a more filling snack would be something like string cheese or yogurt (I have plenty of that as well!)
I also bought the Hungry Girl cookbook, which I think will be very useful, especially for me since I'm only cooking for one person and most of the recipes are for one serving. I found the tofu shiritaki noodles that are mentioned in the book quite often and I can't wait to try them! Unfortunately, I realized after spending lots of money at the grocery store that I don't have all of the right ingredients to make the recipes that call for the noodles. I'm going to make the shrimp pad thai as soon as I get those ingredients!
I made the jalepeno swappers as a snack today, and they were great!
