Have you been wondering where I have been?
Of course I’ve been working on all sorts of goodies for Eli’s Lids.
(Exciting!!)
But mostly I have been starving.
Yes, starving.
It’s no secret I haven’t lost my baby weight from my last two littles.
People who meet me in person, usually do a double take, because I only post skinny pictures of myself on the blog (It’s my blog, I’ll do what I want to) it’s kinda funny.
Anyway, I started logging calories on an AWESOME app called My Fitness Pal. It’s FREE and very eye opening about what I was actually eating.
Who knew almonds were 640 calories per cup??
Not this gal who was snacking on about 2 cups a day… that’s 3/4 of what I should be eating the whole day!!!
I’ve been doing it for 30 days and I’ve lost 6.5 pounds.
See…
I can now button my fatty fat fat jeans with minimal muffin top.
A Mini Muffin Top!
I’m not perfect and I cheat. A lot. See today’s entry below. (Guess it’s salad and air for dinner.) But I’m still losing because I’m eating less than I was before. A lot less.
One of the best parts about My Fitness Pal is that you can friend other peeps who are suffering doing it too and chat/encourage each other.

But don’t follow me if you don’t want to hear LOTS and LOTS of complaining about how starving and cranky I am.
Because that’s all I ever post about.

This app sounds awesome! I’m going to check it out. I would like for my muffin top to be more mini in size. 🙂 I’m certain that the “healthy” way I am eating is probably not so healthy. And I probably cut out the bag of Trader Joe’s Kettle Corn…

Working so hard! I think in another 5 lbs other people will really start to notice. (I hope!)
rachael says

Eli's Lids says
I was shocked.
Abbey says
Ooooo, I’m in! I could stand to lose my not so mini post baby muffin top too! Can we complain together?
Congrats on your house. Where did you guys buy one at?
Eli's Lids says
In Trabuco Canyon! Love love love it. But there is a lot of work to be done. So glad you joined in the weight loss fun!
