i've never been a breakfast person. don't really like any of it...cereal, toast, jam, eggs, oatmeal. so typically, i have a very small bowl of whatever leftovers are around. and if there are no leftovers, i pull out the old magic bullet and whip up my breakfast shake: 1 banana 1 cup of unsweetened almond milk 2 tsp ground…

lol...just read this as i finished up planning out my vacation meals. i leave on monday for a 2 weeks roadtrip. i'm not going to be completely anal about it, but i do know what dates we'll be camping, there is a wedding, will at with friends some nights, with my folks on others...so i just prelogged some of the traditional…

i've lost 60 so far and have had issues with loose skin...pilates is my best friend in respects to this.

****ake mushrooms, amazing greens wheat grass, unsweetened almond milk, bananas, chickpeas, baby carrots, justus fair trade coffee. :)

i tried it years ago but couldn't stay on it. it made me extremely jittery.

that's fantastic! congratulations! (and you will totally inspire me next week when my parents come to town for a 10 day vacation...so much eating out involved in that. lol.)

i love soy burgers. they are one of the only processed foods i indulge in...once i got a taste for them, there was no going back to beef! in my opinion, healthier too...read labels though, it depends on brand. recently, (last week) discovered the joy of just taking the stem off a giant portabella mushroom and grilling it…

I'm currently on day 5 of 14 of a vegan cleanse. I found it on a great blog called "plate & simple". It's not raw, but its fabulous! I feel radiant and its only day 5! :)

i found a pasta in the organic section of the grocery store last evening that was made from just brown rice, rice bran & water. maybe take a look around for an alternative like that, if you still want the feel of eating pasta.

halifax here! add me, if you would like. :) i lurked for a long time before adding folks. its so much easier to stay on track now that i have.

great ideas! thanks so much...will check them all out.

i garden, make wine & homemade soap, and am currently studying to become a registered aromatherapist. keeps me busy enough! :)

the numbers haven't changed, but how do you feel? how do your clothes feel? that's a lot of workout...my guess is that you've probably lost some fat but gained muscle...and that improves your health and speeds up your motabolism. :) keep it up, you'll see change.

while i haven't had an c-sections, i have some droopy skin on my stomach as well after losing the fist 60 pounds. for me, the only things that consistantly works is pilates. i found a 20 minute routine on dvd that i can do at home a few times a week and it makes all the difference. (when i actually stick at it. lol.)

thank you for sharing this. :)

I made a slow journey into vegetarianism & there is no going back for me. I've never felt better. :) And if you ever want to exchange veggie recipes, drop me a line.
