Sometimes it’s difficult to take it one day at a time, because I think ‘today I’ve done well, but what if I screw up next week? That could be all my weight gained back.’
Then I realize that it’s all in my power. I won’t love my body overnight, but if I just take it one day at a time, or just one meal at a time, I will get there in no time.
For those of you panicking about weight loss, as if you’re never going to love your body, just slow down and breathe.
Take it one meal at a time, don’t panic about some dinner a week from now or anything like that. You’ll get there.

For anyone struggling with weight loss
The best part about weight loss is feeling it, finally, after being uncomfortable for so long. It’s running your hands over your hip bones, feeling your collarbone and sharp shoulders, the space between you and your clothing when you move. It’s sitting down without your stomach bulging. It’s walking without your thighs slamming together. It’s placing your hand to the side of your face and feeling that delicate cheekbone in your palm. Looking thin is great, but feeling thin is amazing.

i somehow managed to weigh in at 182 today despite eating like shit for the past few days?? i weighed 3 times to make sure and the number stayed the same, gonna fast until supper and see how that goes, fingers crossed
3 calorie mini mock Reese’s PB cups
2 TBS PB2 (50)
2 TBS unsweetened cocoa powder (20)
¼ cup cashew milk (6)
1 TBS non fat Greek yogurt (5)
1 TBS (adjust to taste) granulated sweetner (ex. Equal, Splenda) (0)
1 TBS water (0)
24 mini muffin liners
In a bowl, mix the PB2, water and ½ the amount of sweetner you’re using. The PB2 mix should be dough like.
In a separate bowl, mix the cocoa powder, yogurt, milk, and other half of sweetner.
Pour enough of the chocolate to cover the bottom, take a piece of the peanut butter and lay it on top. Drizzle more chocolate over it. Repeat 24 times to make 24 bite size pieces and freeze.
Note: I recommend using 2 muffin liners, they get a bit flimsy after being in the freezer so doubling up makes the cups easier to pull off.
These thaw out pretty quick as well.
trying to at least stay at or under 1000cals, i know its pathetic and i could do less but im currently at 440 and im gonna be forced to eat later tonight
weighed in this morning a pound lighter than yesterday, hopefully i can keep dropping like this.
