44 DAYS!

My Whole30 turned Whole60 is the BEST thing ever. I am ONE freaking pound away from my 80 pound goal. I CAN'T EVEN! My hope is that tomorrow morning I will weigh in and it's gone. I feel like maybe the sky will open and all the angels will sing.

As usual here is the food I have made the last week.


Pork loin with apples, onions, cranberries, and a touch of balsamic vinegar and water

I served it with roasted brussel sprouts 


This was Danielle's crock pot fix. She made sweet potato chili and it was awesome. 


Egg Roll bowls! So easy - just 1 lb ground beef and 1 bag of coleslaw mix. 


Beef and broccoli with sautéed onions. The "sauce" I made was coconut aminos, mustard, vinegar, and chili paste. 


Spinach eggs, and bacon MMMMM my favorite breakfast 


Sweet potato chili with avocado, an applegate farms hot dog, and kombucha


This was FANTASTIC 
I baked onions and cut up cabbage tossed in a little oil, salt and pepper, with buffalo andouille 



This is the andouille I found at Drug Emporium in Longview 



Grapes, pickles, and broccoli salad (just a bag of broccoli salad mix with primal kitchens mayo, vinegar, and curry powder, with raisins and pecans tossed in) 



Pumpkin curry! 
Pumpkin puree, coconut milk, curry paste, onions, peppers, and chicken all cooked down in the crock pot. I topped it with toasted coconut and pepitas. 


Aidells chicken apple sausage, onions, and spinach topped with Ghee fried eggs and a side of cantaloupe and bananas. 



Applegate farms hot dogs and leftover broccoli salad 


spinach eggs and strawberries 


Spaghetti squash topped with baked chicken and a little of tessemaes bbq sauce 




I only have 16 days left, but with food this yummy I really think I will just eat whole30 until Thanksgiving. I am going to try to make most of my food Paleo over the holiday so that I don't gain any weight back. I can already see 2016 is gonna be the best year EVER.

FITSPO

So maybe I have been under a rock but I just heard about this whole "thinspo" ban from pinterest, tumblr, instagram etc. I was never into "thinspo" because I don't want to look like a stick. Example of thinspo BUT NOW they are talking about if fitspo is also a negative thing. Example of fitspo  There are mixed emotions about fitspo. I personally think that it is beneficial to me. I don't beat myself up and it doesn't make me have an unhealthy view of my body or make me do crazy things like starve myself. It motivates me to go to the gym which I need to be doing. This is from the new york times about fitspo being the new thinspo " But in our rush to focus on health -- or at least the perceived appearance of health -- we’re simply setting up a new idealized figure to chase after, and not necessarily one that is any better for us. What kind of monster is against health? This kind, I suppose. While I mightily dig the notion of ind...

Crossfit and a sex doll.

I have been working out pretty consistently and have been weightlifting for a while, but I decided that I wanted to do something more. I have been thinking about trying CrossFit but I am scared to do it alone. I mentioned the idea to my husband and he said he was interested in trying it too. I am really interested in lifting heavy and getting more physical strength.  I am really proud that I have lost over 100 pounds, but I will say my body isn't exactly how I imagined it would be. I pretty much feel like this...  It's weird how your body just kind of deflates. My skin is weird. I am not really comfortable with my arms or thighs - hello short and tank top season. I also hoped my stomach would go away and while it is smaller it's just a smaller deflated version of what it was. I was morbidly obese and had a child. My stomach will probably never be viewed by anyone and that is fine, but when you look at this as motivation  and then you get...

Health and Beauty

This morning after my multi hour internet health blog and pinterest binge I was wondering should I be taking supplements? My husband drinks protein powder after he works out but he is big and not trying lose weight but build muscle. I want to build muscle too because ultimately I want to actually have a fit body not just lose weight. I wonder if I am supposed to lose the fat first and do weights obviously while I am losing weight but then once I get most of the fat gone and want to be a more serious muscle builder THEN take supplements? I don't even know if I want to take supplements. For some reason I feel like taking pills and powders is unhealthy. Maybe because I have a past with the whole diet pills, meal replacements etc. I don't think those work and I think they are a waste of my time and money. I want to do something that is good and right for my body. I want to eat FOOD not take short cuts that eventually fail me. There isn't a magic powder or pill thats going to ...
