I'm trying to increase my Whole Foods plant based meals. Just because Oreos and Classic Lay's potato chips are vegan, doesn't mean they equal a healthy diet! The sodium alone is enough reason to stop relying on processed foods. I'm too cheap to throw out food though, so trying to use up items I already have, while getting those fresh fruits and veggies.

I always weigh on Friday mornings and avoid the scale the rest of the week. It's been hard won, but I finally dropped another pound! I'm down to 174! Quite a ways to go to reach my lowest adult weight, but it's progress!

I don't know if I could face broccoli that early in the day!

I weighed myself early this week, because I have to get up too early tomorrow and get on the road. (Yay family weekend!) Anyway, I'm down another 2.5#! While I'm thrilled, I'm skeptical! I almost don't want to update my profile, and want to wait to see if it sticks! Have you done that? Or do you just take the Win and go on?

Oh, I totally wiped out that loss this past weekend! Spent it with my side of the family. All we did was eat and play lawn games. Had to take laps around the soy bean field to get some steps in! I know that being home, back on a routine, with normal meals and activities it'll come back off.

My son leaves for France in a few weeks, and after that, I've got all kinds of goals set! Some are for my weight, others for my budget. His brother got engaged, so we've got a wedding to (help) pay for next year!
