I forgot to weigh in yesterday. Most likely because I really didn't want to know how much damage I did over the weekend. Today, however, I pulled myself together and braved the scale. Surprisingly, I did lose 2.2 lbs from last week which is definitely not what I have had expected.
I am now down a whooping 20 lbs!
I am ecstatic! It's a motivator I desperately needed to continue.

My First Vegan Victim
Sad truth is, I don't have a big enough pot to cook double portions. I have managed in the past but only because I usually forgot one or the other ingredient.
This time, however, I did not. It was simply too much for that poor old spoon to take and it snapped:
It was too tough to stuff all that spinach in that too small pot.
R.I.P. dear wooden spoon, gift of my mother-in-law :(

Healthy Habits come with a price!
Nuts in my teeth and blueberry's blue spot on my lips. Yay for living healthy - hehe
I am back on track! It's been a tough week(s) and my healthy habits just went down the drain last week, so I am now trying to recover before it is too late.
Back to basics. Better planned meals and snacks and NO MORE chocolate soy milk (see one of my previous posts). Unfortunately, the soy milk became addictive and had to go. I'll be OK without it but was not much in control while I had it at home.
Another big mistake was to bake vegan cupcakes. Very yummy! Amazing texture: moist and fluffy! It was just like a gateway drug back. I am or was a recovering chocoholic/sweetaholic (or whatever else you want to name it) and cannot be trusted with sweets around me.
Now I need to get my sweet cravings back under control and not fall off the wagon again.
