Oop

I fell off my diet a... good bit. I'll be getting back on track soon. No worries.

Spring Break

I gained 5 pounds over break, darn you Whataburger. But I'm back in Athens and back on track to lose it again.

LightLife Smart BBQ

In that last post I mentioned I was going to try out this BBQ again, and I did. Fortunately it didn't cause my stomach to be upset like it was last time. But the taste didn't really get any better. Just like the veggie dogs, you can tell it's really trying, but it's just not there. An immediate improvement would be changing the sauce. Throw some Sweet Baby Rays in there, dudes. The "meat" doesn't have the a fantastic texture. Like the flavor, it tries to be meat, but it's just different. But it tastes okay. Just not great. The smell on the other hand. That needs to get worked on. It smells bad. Straight up nasty. It was 18 degrees outside when I made it and I STILL opened my window up. Had to take out my trash because that one bag of BBQ was making my entire room stink. But that's about all I have to say about it. Will I buy it again? No. I will try another brand if I can find one, but I will not purchase this particular product a second time. Can I recommend it? Only if you're really, really hungry. And even then....

Veggie Burger

I had some veggie burgers a while back. I can't remember which brand so I can't give them a proper review until then. But I can tell you that I WILL be buying more next time I'm at the store.

Oh, and I tried some veggie BBQ. Verdict is still out on that one. I'm not sure if it caused my stomach to be really upset or not. I have a second batch of it that I'll have to try sometime after I'm done with classes this week.

6 pounds

My pants are starting to get looser, thankfully it's only a couple weeks before the quarter ends and I'll be able to swap out a few pairs of jeans over break. I *think* I'm starting to look thinner as well. Hurrah!

5 Pounds

I've lost 5 pounds so far. I'm 1/6th of the way there. In another 5 pounds I get to have DP Dough! YEAH. That's exciting.

More Energy

I've noticed I have more energy these days. It's almost irritating, because for the longest time one of the things my mom has been telling me to try to get me to eat healthier is that "you'll have more energy!". She's right. Again. I don't know why I doubt her on things. (Except chain mail.) But the important thing is that I'm more energetic. I feel good. I hardly eat a single time a week at the dining halls these days. I just feel better. The time it takes me to walk to my classes uptown have been cut in half. Such craziness. But it's nice to start seeing things in everyday life changing because of my eating habits.
