Survival Mode Put Us Back to Zero
A lot of you came here many moons ago when I left Sparkpeople. I loved the community of that place and the support I got there. It was at the height of us being on our game. That motivation you have in the beginning when you're consistently rewarded with weight loss, smaller clothes, compliments to keep your motivation high and you somehow begin to step out of being invisible to the public to people smiling at you, opening doors or striking up conversation. You start to feel human. You don't have to worry about going to restaurants or 'fitting' somewhere. You can go to a wedding and see those God awful thin folding chairs and while you still don't like them, you're not concerned. Many of your worries that fit people never had to think of, have faded away. We started for the long haul in our 30's and that's when we had the most success, losing 226 and 190 lbs respectively. When we went on vacation, as long as we came back and got rig...
This is awesome. I loved it and can't wait to have it again soon. I highly recommend it!
ReplyDeleteGlad you liked it! I'll have to bust it out again for ya soon!
DeleteThis looks like something MY Mr. would appreciate. I was surprised that the soft-boiled eggs looked like they worked well in it, but my DH would probably want his hard-boiled. The habanero cheese is what grabbed my attention though.
ReplyDeleteThe soft boiled eggs made it creamy but still lots of good texture like a hard boiled.
DeleteThat looks delicious! I think you need to be my personal chef. :)
ReplyDeleteFor the right amount of green, you've got it! HA!
DeleteI can't wait to make this to break me out of my lunch rut! Thanks for posting it!
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome!
DeleteThat looks fantastic! I love egg salad!
ReplyDeleteI hope you love this one too! Something for the person that likes a little kick!
DeleteCant wait to try this when I get home. Thanks for all the tips Mrs!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy mama!
DeleteI seriously need to not read these things when I'm hungry!!! That looks SO good! :-)
ReplyDeleteMake some pronto! :)
DeleteBeautiful photo! I have that plate too. :) I've never tried sprouted bread before--does it taste like regular whole wheat bread or is it different?
ReplyDeleteI lurve that plate! If it wasn't so dang expensive to replace my whole set, I would!
DeleteI've had the Ezekiel brand before and found it to be a little dense for my taste but Trader Joe's Whole Wheat tastes almost the same as regular whole wheat bread. Sprouted is supposed to break down a little easier in your digestive system so I've recently made a point to start buying that over regular bread for that reason.
That looks really good. I'm thinking maybe lunch today. I've never seen habanero cheese around here, but I bet pepperjack would be pretty good too.
