Pizzer!

September 20, 2007

So remember my realization about how brushing my teeth means I don’t want to snack (shocking, right!?) Well it worked today, big time. I brushed at 3pm because I wanted to munch and wasn’t hungry and I didn’t get hungry until 5:00!!! And I didn’t even have that big of a lunch. Because I knew I was having homemade pizza in an hour, I resisted snacking (and hummus still wasn’t that appealing with toothpaste taste) so I skipped my snack. Oh my gosh, I didn’t die of hunger without a snack! Go me!!

So of course what did I celebrate with? A beer. But I only had 2/3 of it and gave the rest to the husband. Nice choice. (90 calories vs. 150)

Husband worked on the homemade dough (his specialty – you could just buy it refrigerated at the store. I hear Trader Joe’s is really good) and roasted some grape tomatoes and zucchini in the oven for the toppings. Note his pretty wedding ring!!

Pizza toppings included:

  • Cherry tomatoes
  • 5 slices zucchini
  • Leftover homemade tomato sauce mixed with some spaghetti squash (about 50 cals)
  • 1/2 cup low-fat mozzarella cheese
  • Fresh basil from the garden

I have to say though, it wasn’t as good as when we grilled the crust. So I think we’ll go back to that next time.
Pizza calories: ~510 (I could have done with half the cheese, but I knew I had the room for it)

Wednesday calories: 1629.

-500 through workout and 35 minutes walking.

Net= 1129 (Too low – and I’m a little bit hungry)

…………………….Which is why I decided to make tapioca!



This will add another 100 to my day and get in a serving of dairy and a bit more protein.

And I am totally making another Banana Foster Pancake tomorrow!

Before


Summer 2004 around 150 pounds

In A Nutshell

I’ve lost over 30 pounds and did it the best way possible: hard work!

I am maintaining a 30+ pound weight loss at around 120 lbs. After putting on about 25 lbs in college due to foot surgery that kept me from running and out-of-control portions of “healthy” food, by graduation I was ready to take control of my life and make health my top priority.

My husband, then fiancé, and I spent a year cooking healthy meals and exercising everyday. He lost 30 pounds in 3 months; it took me a year and a half.

Now, -30ish lbs later, I’m the healthiest - and happiest - I’ve ever been.

Highest Weight: 151, December 2005
Goal: 120, March 2007
