For the Sake of Pretty

gotta find foods that you love to eat so that you’ll never leave them from your standard diet!

my friends have definitely noticed the difference in my eating/cooking habits, and they always ask me why..
but i tell them that i’m so happy i changed because I LOVE eating healthy! I’ve discovered natures sugars, and now i crave healthy fruits for that fix. citrus for tart cravings. i pop veggie strips (bell peppers, carrots, spinach) like they’re chips or something!
i just found foods that i love eating that aren’t going to wreck my progress (and trust me, it’s been a long road.)
no self-sabotage here!
cheers to healthy eating you guys! (:

so i ended up being 1 pound away from my prom goal..

but all in all, it was 14 pounds lost! (and since i re-wore my jr. prom dress to my friend’s prom this year, you can DEFINITELY see more arm definition/toning, and i just look healthier!)

can’t wait to keep hauling ass this summer. this is only the beginning(:

3 lbs away from my prom goal? woo!

i can do it! this long 5 day weekend is all about intense cardio sweat sessions and loading on the veggies.

I CAN DO THIS. (165 here i come, then it’s only 5 more lbs to 160! ahh!)

wrote in my food diary today: PROM MOTIVATION.

guys, my dress just came in.. it’s more beautiful than the pictures online give it credit for. my boobs look amazing. now i’m working on my back and arms. (i’m so lucky to have a flat, smooth back, but i want some more definition, but my arms definitely need some toning.)

oh, and i lost another 2 pounds! OMG MAJOR MOTIVATION. here’s how i stay strong:

cook salmon ahead of time.
separate 4 oz sections and package spinach salads for the next three lunches.
cut and bag bell peppers
cook weeks worth of brown rice (quinoa for next week)

it’s all about pre-planning!
