I made what used to be my favorite last night. BBQ chicken, mashed potatoes, and green beans.
But ended up only eating half.
Instead I ate cheese and crackers!
This times 3... maybe 4! I can't control myself with cheese and crackers!
This morning I weighed myself and 2 more pounds are GONE! Peace out! I won't miss ya! That's a total of 18lbs since January 17th. 18lbs in 2 months isn't bad.
Breakfast was an egg nuked in the microwave for a minute on a sandwich thin with laughing cow cheese.
And green tea of course. I missed coffee a little this morning. It's been over a week with no coffee!
I worked out with my trainer and it was HARD. One of the hardest leg workouts I've ever done. In 30 minutes my legs were shaking and I was dripped sweat on the floor. Plus I did 30 minutes on the treadmill walking at 4.0 with varying inclines.
When I got home I ate my weight in banana chips.
1/4c has 150 calories. I estimate I ate at least 300 calories worth! These are one of those things I can't keep in my house. I have no self control...
I had a ham, reduced fat swiss, and mustard sandwich. Plus a salad with greens, avocado, tomato, carrots, evoo, and vinegar.
Plus a soda...
This was SO good! It wasn't really a soda. More like seltzer which is totally my thing.
I tried to eat light this morning because I knew the kids and I were making cookies.
Making cookies with two kids actually isn't fun at all. It's chaotic and messy.
I'm surprised our cookies turned out.
Check out my new friend! PARCHMENT PAPER!
I've never used it before and man was I missing out! It made the perfect little cookies.
What food do you have no self control around?

Love these cheese and cracker canapes.
Are these banana chips homemade?
I always have a soft spot for bread...and have to remind myself not to take too much carbohydrates
Umm...can I say all food? Ha!
I agree baking with kids is chaotic and messy!
nice job on the cookies, per usual!! that soda looks refreshing, i need to get my hands on some.
Where did you get that soda from? It looks tasty :) And I cannot keep chips in the house, I will eat all of them...
Parchment paper is my best friend. It's great for roasting veggies too, when you don't want your pans to be an oily mess.
I lose control when there are muffins (particluarly my banana walnut choc chip version) or really moist cake in the house. It disappears very quickly.
18 pounds in 2 months is AMAZING!!!!
Congrats on 18lbs! That's awesome!!
I have self control issues with a lot of things, top few being...
Chips and salsa/guac
cookies (especially with my morning coffee)
take out pizza
.... list goes on!
@california girl I just got it at our local grocery store. It was such a weird find but delicious!
@Kelly I thought I was the only one that did cookies and morning coffee! :)
Great job on 18lbs in 2 months! Your dinner looks good but so do the cheese, crackers, and hot rings. I love that combo!
A week with no coffee?! Yikes! You are braver than me :) I have absolutely zero control around pita chips and hummus. It seems like a healthy snack...until I eat my body weight's worth!
The kids look so cute with the mixer making the cookies. AW!
Congrats on the weight loss! I hope I can start being more successful in that department.
