Derailed

I got off track, but I started back on the 21st. All the measurements are the same. My weigh-ins are on Fridays. I have trouble staying off the scale though. It looks nice so far. I've been Vlogging on Youtube too. I think there is just too much pressure on getting subscribers. I'm here to lose weight and taking back the life that I've been missing out on.

I tried a recipe for Cantaloupe Soup. It was pretty tasty, but it was more of a smoothie than a soup.
Pretty simple. 1 cantaloupe + 2cups of OJ in a blender. then add cinnamon and a tablespoon of lime juice. I used a ice cream scoop to hollow out my cantaloupe rather than cutting because I love cantaloupe juice and it would reduce the amount that I would just be wasting on my cutting board. I personally would cut down on the amount of OJ, because it's a bit more sour than I would ideally like it to be.

Here is my food journal for the past couple of days.

I think I've done pretty well. Speghettios aren't exactly diet food, but I'm not going for a short term diet. I want to change my life! And I have to keep the foods I like to have in order to keep it long term. Moderation and Hydration are key.
