So, I'm just starting the third week and I am already feeling a difference. It's so rewarding. I forgot how great it feels to work out and eat well. I'm not eating as much raw as I'd like because we are cleaning out the pantry right now, but I'm already more than half way to my first goal.
I try to measure stuff but sometimes I don't. I also work really hard to have a lot of smaller meals throughout the day because my number one problem is not eating enough meals and making up for it with huge portion sizes.

So my latest obsession is sweet potato tapioca pudding. It's something I just sorta made up. Some of Era's students gave him a box of sweet potatoes and limas (a cross between oranges and lemons). I had a monster sweet potater and was fiending for something dessert like. I used minute tapioca (fat free), almond milk, cinnamon, ginger, and 1/2 a huge baked sweet potato. I'll put up a recipe when I make it again.
Well, I just finished my workout for the day so I've got a date with Netflix. Werd to the nerd.

I keep a food diary too on sparkpeople, because I'm dieting. But i admit I tend to lapse at the weekend!!
Awesome, Mo! Keep up the good work!

Wow, congratulations on keeping up with the food journal. I usually last a pathetic 3 days if I try really really hard. You are doing so well! Keep it up!
Very balanced meals! You and I both love our English Breakfast Tea! :)
They say that it takes the brain approximately 21 days to create a new habit, so it looks like your journal-keeping is here to stay! :)
That tapioca pudding sounds delicious! I keep starting and stopping a food journal, too, but I keep letting things get in the way. You're inspiring me to start doing it again!
