Another .5 lbs down!


I finally stepped on the scale once again. This is really my least favorite activity in the world especially after I gained all the weight in college and after working out for a continuous 3 months with a personal trainer this summer I lost no weight. I got the courage to weigh myself especially because I had to report it to my friend for our weekly weigh-in and to my surprise I was another 1/2 lb lighter! YAY for eating no to less carbs. I've realized I have to make this a permanent change in my life. I need to eat carbs as minimally as I can because they are a big killer for my body. I mean after I finish this diet and I can eat carbs again, I will but as minimal as possible.

Today was a pretty okay day as well. This morning I had an omelette and decided to mix things up. Instead of my usual green pepper, tomato, and onion omelette, I made one with spinach, mushrooms, red pepper, and feta cheese because of one of my friends suggestion. It was actually pretty good and resembled my frittata I had attempted two weeks ago.

For lunch today, I had the usual Balsamic vinegar salad talked about on the post before. When my mom came home and I made her afternoon tea I made some sips of it as well. She asked me to make freshly squeezed orange juice which I sipped on a bit while juicing it.

For dinner my sister and I enjoyed some Chipotle. We made it have as less carbs as possible and asked for no rice, fajita, beans, chicken, pico de gallo, hot salsa, corn (I could not forego those because my chipotle burrito bowl isnt a chipotle burrito bowl without it), sour cream, lettuce, and a bit of cheese. My usual burrito bowl but this time contained no rice. If you think about it a Chipotle burrito bowl is pretty healthy if you dont get the tortilla shell or the the rice. The only reason it has a lot of calories is because of the amount they give you as well as the beans because they are high in calories but not in carbs.

Recap: Yay! 1/2 lb down and its only the beginning of the week!
