I apologize for lack of blogging. Soo much is going on between a sick
Fiancé , Wedding planning and our Wedding social. I am honestly losing my mind.
I was able to get some of the projects I had set for myself done…..such as my centerpiece mock-up #2
Centerpiece mock-up #2
- Tall round vase, 6mm black ribbon wrapped around the top twice, fogged glass stones and 4 large silk roses with one small in the middle.
I love it!!! What do you think?
I follow lots of foodie blogs, I have mentioned some before and a constant theme in many of them has been something called Banana Soft Serve ….. and seriously? This has changed EVERYTHING. The blog post I found this on called it “This Post Will Change Your Life” and it has.
Whats crumbled in that is The Ultimate Vegan Oatmeal Raisin Cookies from Oh She Glows!
These cookies are sooo good. I put them in everything, I crumbled them also in greek yogurt for breakfast. I love love love them!

The lighting is a bit dark on these, late night baking! I need to make a light box

I can’t wait till things calm down a bit so I can create some new recipes and not so much borrowed. But all these have been so good!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
I have been debating this for a few weeks now, I am at my ideal weight and have surpassed my goal. I am healthy, happy and enjoying my new lifestyle. When I started my weight loss, my goal was 130lbs. I am now 120lbs. So then why am I still dieting? Let’s be serious? Enough is enough. Dieting is a horrible word, no one likes it and I hate it.
I am ending it, and trust me dieting…..I don’t want to be friends, in fact I don’t ever want to see you again.

| It’s official I have removed you as a Facebook friend LOL |
Now that is done and the awkwardness is fading. Let’s discus what my new goals are:
- Continue eating healthy, but increase my calorie intake- I know my body now, I know what amount I can and can’t eat
- Keep working out and getting in top shape – still need to look fab for my wedding
- Be happy and not feel deprived – self explanatory for anyone who has been on a diet
I am really happy about this decision. I will continue to eat healthy and maintain what I have accomplished. I honestly feel so much better! With the wedding coming in just a little more then 6months and my wedding social just around the corner, this is one less stress and I wont miss it.
Last night’s workout was my back. Each exercise is 3 set’s of 12 reps.
- Pull up on assisted machine
- Row on machine
- DB Swiss ball raise
I then followed up with 20min on the stepper at resistance 6.
Now for the best part, my post-workout drink….The Green Monster as seen on Oh She Glows. She has many different versions. Mine was close to the the Classic Green Monster with a small handful of blueberries added.
The major modification I did was instead of chocolate nut butter or wheatgrass I used a scoop of my ISOFLEX Peanut Butter Chocolate protein powder. The result. AMAZING! I even had my fiance try some and he loved it. So check out Angela at Oh She Glows she rocks!
