good morning everyone!

Super rainy day today, so i will be treadmilling it and using the elliptical, though i don't mind walking in the rain, i'm due for new sneakers and i'll end up with wet feet i think! lol..

Sitting here eating breakfast right now:
pomegranate & blueberry yogurt
half of an apple, with 1/2 cup fresh pineapple
4 lil melba toast crackers, with some peanut butter
240 calories, and well balanced (got my protein, starch & fruit) yay!

i haven't had a weigh in since last one, but hoping for results, last weigh in was 59 lbs lost, soooo want to be able to say 60 something lbs lost after my plateau.. i've been hanging on to 58 & 59 lbs lost for a few weeks now..Although it wasn't so much a plateau, i just haven't been as committed to working out as i should be, i know this.. And so, i stepped it up this week and finally am feeling some results in how loose my clothes are feeling compared to usual...

So , crossing fingers, when i finally DO weigh in (which will probably be next week) that i've some awesome results to report. i do keep reminding myself daily that this isn't about the weight loss for me, as much as it is about feeling healthy, feeling happy in my own skin & of course gaining control on my eating disorder and addiction to food & sugars..

So on THAT note, i feel fabulous & healthier than ever.. AND, as far as weight loss goes, i am smaller now than i have been in over 15 years, actually 18.. my son is 18 years old and i didn't lose that weight at all either.. So that alone makes me feel so proud of myself.

PS - i LOVE the idea of recipes for healthier cooking over the holidays! We should definitely get to sharing, because not only is your Thanksgiving coming up, but Christmas (oy) is right around the corner too! And i'm such a new recipe lover..
