Learning the hard way...

I'm still here, just been very busy these last couple days! I haven't weighed myself in the past few days, mostly because of the over consumption of french fries, ice cream, and other crappy food. Face it, own it, move on... right Roni??? I am trying, but it is much easier to just continue eating crappy and pretending everything is fine. I also haven't been exercising over the past few days. It is so easy to just stop trying!

My goal is 6.8 pounds away (145 lbs), and so far I have lost a total of 4.2 pounds (I am at 151.8 lbs now). I have my dress fitting on July 20th (6 days away). My goal is to be at 150l… Continue

Leek soup

I am reading 'French Women Don't Get Fat' by Mireille Guiliano and she promotes a leek soup. I made this soup today... I am not sure that I could live off of it for 2 days as she suggests, but I am going to attempt a one day of leek soup tomorrow. Here is how it looks.
This was before I boiled the leeks:

Hey Jill. CORE brownies sound yummy, but the wierd thing is that my pregnant body hasn't been handling sweets too well?! The thought of sweets makes me a little queazy. Not sure what that is about! I have been craving lots of fresh fruit though, so I am getting my sweet fix.
