Healthy Lunch

Hey,

When previously trying to lose weight and get healthy, I would prep all of my meals for the week. This was great because I never had to worry what I ate day to day. The only issue was the week I was too busy to find time to set aside for meal prep, I would end up eating out everyday. This time around, I am not putting pressure on myself to do one or the other. 

I prepped today's lunch last night so I could get those extra minutes of sleep for a Monday morning. I decide to use the left over steak from dinner and make a salad. I also packed up my snacks and breakfast. 

After prepping everything, I weighed out all my food on my food scale. I added it into My Fitness Pal to ensure I was keeping with my daily calories. This has really helped me to know what I want for dinner and plan accordingly. 

The salad turned out perfect (although the steak was overdone but that was my issue from last night)! Very excited to be staying motivated and preparing meals :)

Welcome Back

Hey Everyone,

I have decided to start my blog back up to help me hit my goals from 2015 and beyond. I want to use this as a motivation for me and a way to track my life (like a diary). I have recently started a new Instagram focusing on my weight loss and getting myself to a healthy place. It has really been helpful to keep me accountable and share my journey. Here are come shots from my Instagram.

                          

I not only want to make 2015 the best year ever but I want to make smart choices to change my future. 2014 was a hard year for me emotionally and I think I began to give up on a lot of aspects of my life. During 2014, my job was draining and caused me to feel defeated. I applied for, what felt like, 1000s of jobs and didn't get an interview for a single one. I felt lost and with nowhere to go. Although, I am still in the same job, I have changed my focus back to working on my cakes and myself. I need to take control of my life and move into a positive direction. 

Thank you for joining my adventure and I hope your 2015 is everything you want it to be.

Stephanie
