Cookies taste better than skinny feels

I needed to see this post! Makes me re-think my whole love/hate relationship with food. You look great!

I'm very much into loving food. I think it's possible to love food and to love/live to eat without going too far. I don't think shame and hate should be emotions attached to food. You have to eat, it's biological need. Food shouldn't make you hate yourself and you shouldn't hate food. You should be able to go "I'm gonna have this bar of chocolate, enjoy every bite, and then keep it moving." without having to feel like you need to work it off/that you shouldn't have eaten it/that it's gonna screw up your whole day/week/life/future lives.

I only ever regret eating stuff I don't like. And kettle corn. I regret kettle corn. I can't put that stuff down. Should have never bought it.

...I keed.

That's fantastic! I've sort of just started and I miss yummy cookies and spaghetti very much ;n;. I'm going to try and bring them back into my life (starting with those whoopie pies *drool*). I'm doing mostly treadmill right now and I'm perfecting my squats so I can start stronglifts 5x5 next month. It will be my first foray into weightlifting, so I'm pretty excited. I hope someday I can look as awesome as you do!

I promise you that as long as you stick to a moderate deficit, log as accurately as you can (weigh and measure) and pay attention to trends so you can adjust things as needed you be great.
