Then: Anything drenched in ranch, packaged ramen. Now: French onion soup, sushi, real ramen

In an Uber, headed to work!

That you won't see it right away, and when you do it might not be in the places you expected. I've hopped back on track almost a year after falling off of it. I gained close to 15 lbs in that time, and after about 2 1/2 weeks of actively working at weight loss again I've lost a little bit, but didn't really see any change…

Breakfast- Bananas and Cream oatmeal with a tablespoon of peanut butter Lunch- Tuna Sandwich with some Zesty Ranch flavor veggie straws Dinner- Unsure, potentially a bowl of soup or a turkey burger with homemade sweet potato fries on the side.

Breakfast: Bananas & cream oatmeal with a tablespoon of peanut butter and a fried egg. Lunch: Salad w/cucumber, green onions, light Italian dressing, and a half a turkey sandwich. Dinner: Planning on a sweet potato w/ garlic butter and a turkey burger.

1. Taking the time to plan my meals in advance has been super helpful. If I have a plan, I find it easier to stick to then just letting myself eat whatever I want. Even if it's just setting how many calories I want to set aside for each meal, it's still better than letting myself figure it out when mealtime comes. 2.…

Coleslaw and potato salad are gross. I think there's only one potato salad that I thought was actually palatable.

I'm definitely not to my UGW yet (about 30 lbs down so fat), but seeing muscles pop out that you've never seen before. I flexed my leg last night, looked down and just said 'Woooah, that didn't look like that last I checked.'

I've always felt like the black sheep of the family, the odd one out, the weirdo. I'd love to go to a gathering with my extended family and show them that I'm thriving despite that. To be able to post cute pictures on social media and have people (especially those who used to judge me for my weight) say "Wow, she looks so…

Homemade taco soup, so fricken yummy.

If I'm ever in a position where ramen is my only option (I'm talkin' the packaged stuff) then I'll dress it up with random seasonings, and add an egg on top. That, or a splash of red wine vinegar. Not too much or it's far too acidic, but it tastes pretty good (at least to me). I've eaten ranch on rice before. I could eat…

Didn't manage to do the exercises yesterday, but I did get in a two mile walk~
