I have really been struggling and jumped off of the wagon. I was doing great at first, despite the high cost of gathering ingredients, but I still wasn't dropping any weight. It was a bit discouraging to change my diet so drastically and reduce my calorie intake by at least half and not lose any weight. I did have some cheat days with pizza here and there but I still felt that I was staying on track. Then super bowl sunday came and it all went downhill from there. I should have just stuck to making vegan treats, because there are some great dips and other appetizers that are awesome, but I am already afraid of my foods being rejected so I decided to just skip it and go with what everyone else was doing. I need to be strong and have more will power. I want to lose weight and be healthy and I need to stick to this choice. Who cares if no one else understands it or likes it. This is what I want and only I can make that happen. Here is to a real fresh start and a new lifestyle. No more cheating.
My husband made me a great spicy black bean dip and it is delicious alone or on a brown rice tortilla with a little salsa. I will have to post the recipe and pictures soon.
