    @bermudamel‌ I am very proud of myself :) I like to stay humble about the whole thing... I don't ever want to act boastful about it... But I am extremely proud! I want to help inspire others... Because this is possible for anyone. I would have NEVER in a million years guessed I would be where I am today!

    I've been asked A LOT for my protein pancake recipe... Thought I would share it here as well so you all can make these! :)

    1/2 cup oatmeal
    1/2 cup cottage cheese
    1/2 cup egg whites
    1/3 of a banana
    cinnamon to taste
    (if too thick add a tad more egg whites)

    Blend well (I use my bullet for this step) Coconut oil on the griddle, heat to 325ish... Flip when they stop bubbling :) These can stick so if you need, use a little cooking spray. You'll have to put in a recipe to MFP based on how many pancakes you make to find the nutritional value, but they are packed with protein! :) Good way for me to start my days, and I don't feel deprived! :)

    I’ve decided to share my weight loss story in hopes that it will help someone who is struggling with their weight and trying to live a healthier lifestyle.

    In the last 3 ½ years I have lost 125 lbs. Before starting my journey I was 270 pounds, almost type 2 diabetic, and I was morbidly obese. I was depressed and miserable in my own skin, self-soothing with food and candy. My weight and lifestyle were slowly killing me. I wanted to be healthy, I wanted to be happy again, and I wanted to be the wife and mother my family deserved. Those things combined gave me the final push I needed to change my lifestyle.

    I didn’t follow a specific program or go through weight loss surgery. I swapped all my sugar loaded drinks for water, started tracking my food using myfitnesspal, and added exercise into my daily routine. I wanted to change my lifestyle so this would become a permanent way of life. I started with small, achievable goals so I didn’t get overwhelmed with how much weight I still had to lose. I have had amazing success with myfitnesspal! I love that you can share your diary with friends, encourage one another to make healthy choices, and it’s not a specific diet plan! If you choose you can look at all your nutritional value for the day, which has been extremely helpful for me.
    I joined a local gym and I discovered a whole new passion for fitness. I reached out and found other ladies to work out with at the gym. We encourage each other, hold each other accountable, and have fun! When one of us struggles, we help each other. I started personal training and improved my strength, lost more weight, and melted away body fat. Myfitnesspal has helped me track my protein so I could build muscle, as well as my fiber so I can keep things moving ;) I have been able to accomplish things I never thought possible, and I have learned to believe in myself! Please know that weight loss is a journey and it takes time. If I can do this, you can do this! I finally have my life back and I feel great! Thank you myfitnesspal for being part of my journey!
