I know it's been a bit since my last post, but rest assured I've been sticking to the "Skinny Bitch" diet (as evidence by my empty pocketbook). This is by far the most fulfilling eating plan I've ever been on. It is truly amazing how in such a short amount of time things that I didn't think I could live without don't even look good anymore. Not to say they won't at some point down the road but I have my vegan substitutes on standby just in case.
This week I've been making my lunches out of the "Vegan Lunch Box" cookbook. I've had the book for a bit but hadn't made anything, until recently. Let me just say, WOW!
I Heart Jennifer McCann...
Typically I work second shift so my lunch is actually dinner around 7:00p. There's enough time before work to make a lunch out of the book, pack it and enjoy it a few hours later. Today, I made popcorn balls *sigh* my favorite. Yesterday was Savory Autumn Leaf Pies that I had made over the weekend for the equinox and today is pups in a blanket. I forgot how much fun I used to have cooking. Due to the speed of my life cooking took a back seat to fast, cheap and easy - but NO MORE I say!
Other than the first few days of "withdrawals" I can say with confidence that this has been a really good week. My sinuses are clearing up, can you believe that? Also my favorite thing is when I feel the need for a snack I get cookies and milk again! (Oat milk and Newman's) num num num! So many foods that I wouldn't let myself eat due to fat I am now eating again with no regard to calorie or fat content (it is so liberating)...just have to watch those ingredients which is WAY easier.
As of today I still haven't weighed myself (I really don't want to be obsessed with a number) but my pants are baggier so thats got to be a good sign. Either way I feel REAL good...I am in shock and awe.
