Phase 3- No Joke, just results!

Happy rest day to everyone!   Sunday is rest day and also weigh in day for me.  I always try to lose 1 lb a week and usually fall a little short.  So, I hopped on the scale and closed my eyes- WOWZA!  Despite my P.F. Changs indiscretion, a zico coconut water, and some Kombucha here and there I lost 2 lbs.  This is huge for me!  YESS!!!



No workout today, so this post will be quick.

I made the soft goat cheese spread and topped it on multi-grain bread with raspberries and honey.  OMG- so good!  I used to despise honey until I found raw honey, the taste is really that much different.  My husband has the hook up on raw honey too from a co-worker.  Score.


Even the bread was locally made.  Great quality ingredients make such a difference.  Local baby, LOCAL!


We were out and about for lunch, so I had a veggie wrap with fruit.  Mmmmmmmm...... guacamole.  I don't think I go a day without avocado in some form or other these days.


For my snack, I had the trail mix.  This is really simple- chopped almonds, sunflower seeds, and I use cacao chips.  Even though a serving of this is tiny, tiny it is really filling.


For dinner we had sweet potato chorizo soup and a simple salad.  The soup definitely had some kick.
Here is a link to the recipe:

You'll notice that when white plates are used- I prepared the meal.  If black plates are used- my husband cooked.  Those are the plate sets we had pre-marriage and we tend to gravitate towards our own.

Back to push up jacks tomorrow!  Have a great night! The good wife is back, one of the few shows I still make time to watch. :)

  1. First of all, WOWZERS on the size 2 dress yesterday!! Secondly, WOO HOO on the 2lb loss!! I am totally jealous of that number on your scale. That is where I hopped to be at the end of this program. I'm not even 1/2 way done, so there is still a chance...

    You are doing amazing. Thanks for posting your inspirational photos! Have a great week.
