Really practicing some transitions in this session! It’s starting to become muscle memory at this point with a few of my moves, feels good. It’s an older vid because I started to get too pregnant around this time to be able to practice effectively.

I’m getting more and more into dancing! I slowed it down today and was focusing on footwork and transitions.

**Breakfast**: a big ol' breakfast wrap! Low carb wrap *(130cal)*, 3 egg whites *(51 cal*) with a melted wedge of laughing cow swiss in them (*30cal*), a sliced chicken sausage (*50cal*), about 1/2 oz jimmy dean sausage (*50cal*), topped with a splash of taco bell mils sauce *(0cal)* **Curry 1**: A vegan lentil curry on top of spiced cauliflower crumbles **Curry 2:** A japanese curry made with spiralized zucchini, onion, and some veggies from a stir fry mix I had **Snacks!:** Half a grocery store cookie, a sliced apple with PB2 dip, and a whole pint of arctic zero for dessert! **Not shown:** A little oatmeal, a scrambled egg, and a prune ;)

1130 calorie day! Breakfast - Open-faced breakfast sandwich! One big slice of sourdough, a fried egg, and a sliced up chicken sausage. Lunch - pizza! I used a 1/3 portion of the Skinnytaste pizza dough recipe and slathered that thing with a ton of toppings. Toppings include 1 oz cheese, 1 oz pork sausage, 1/2 serving turkey pepperoni, .75oz black olives, a chopped-up chicken sausage, some diced bell pepper and mushrooms and tomatoes and zucchini. **heaven**. Dinner - a big bowl of ramen I made using konyakku/shiritaki noodles and I billed it up using peas, corn, mushrooms, and zucchini. Snacks - Small garden salad, and a sliced apple with 50 cal of PB2 :)

Now and then I’ll put some time into making a batch of breakfast burritos and sandwiches, in case I’m in a hurry and want something and want to know the calories! • The breakfast sandwiches are made with those 100-cal English muffins, each one pre-toasted with a tsp. of butter. Then I’ll add a variation of homemade chicken breakfast sausage patties, egg whites, fried eggs, Canadian bacon, regular bacon, 1/2 cheese slice, and sometimes a hash brown patty. I’ll label the calories according to what’s inside. • The breakfast burritos are the same, but I use roasted potatoes, pork sausage, scrambled eggs, sautéed onions and bell peppers, taco sauce, salsa, beans, etc.

1325 calorie day that was filling and satisfying! I’m ONE pound away from my first big goal of 15lbs down. I can’t wait to post some progress pics • Brunch - 5 egg white omelette with some veg in there and a skinny cow wedge of Swiss, also 100g roasted potato and some sautéed zucchini. Such a filling breakfast! • Lunch - huge fresh salad, super filling and low cal. I use a few tsp of my fav Italian dressing and a few splashes of red wine vinegar. • Dinner - turkey sandwich in an ezikiel bread pita pocket. I use miracle whip light instead of mayo to save some calories. • snacks - buttery sourdough toast, snap peas, natto and rice, and a Fuji apple with a serving of PB2. • I love PB2, I just discovered it lately. I can have peanut butter again! Yay!

1300 cal a day feels so much better than 1200. According to online calculators my BMR is around 1300, maybe that’s why. **brunch** - big plate! A 5 egg white omelette with cauliflower and bell peppers in there and a slice of light laughing cow Swiss cheese. 100g roasted potatoes on the side, and some zucchini. **dinner** - ate light at a relatives house, chicken and salad and some rice and half an ear of corn. Had some blue tortilla chips too and chocolate. **snacks** - half a container of breyers ice cream, a buttery slice of sourdough toast, and a single serving bag of popcorn!

Breakfast - A tasty egg white omelette breakfast skillet! 5 egg whites with some cauliflower and bell peppers added for color and bulk. I cut up a zucchini for some breakfast veg and threw in 65g of leftover roasted baby potatoes • Lunch -A big-ass salad! Made it a sweet salad by dicing up 1/3 of an apple, using 1tbsp of a store-bough vinaigrette, and splashing on some red wine vinegar. Delicious. • Dinner -Turkey sandwiches! I like to add tomato, cucumber, lettuce and sprouts for crunch. I use light miracle whip to save calories, and add mustard. Yum. • Snacks - A big plate of weighed-out berries and a single-serve bag of popcorn! • Some calories not shown because I steal my kids jellybeans.

1401 calorie day! It’s a little over my 1200-1300 calorie daily goal but I don’t beat myself up over it. • Brunch - An egg white omelette (5 whites) with some veggies in there, big handful steamed asparagus, and 50g roasted potatoes • Snack - open-faced breakfast sandwich! Big slice of sourdough, 50g chicken sausage patty, and an egg • Dinner - single serving packet of ramen with a lot of bulky veg thrown in there • Snack - pita pocket sandwich with hummus and cucumbers/tomatoes • Snack - natto on a little rice. If you’ve never tried it I don’t recommend it at all, haha. Acquired taste! • Some calories not shown because I stole them off my toddlers plate! Like cherries and a piece of sushi

I posted yesterday about making an enormous Skinnytaste dough pizza for lunch. Well, I wasn’t *planning* on making pizza again for dinner but after texting my husband a photo of how my first pizza turned out, he frantically demanded I make pizza for dinner too. Haha I was more than happy to oblige! • Lunch - Skinnytaste dough pizza (280 cal dough plus all my own toppings) • Dinner - Skinnytaste dough pizza again! With less mozzarella and more meat this time, though. I added turkey pepperoni and my own chicken breakfast sausage and olives. Yum! • Snacks - 200g strawberries with a little cool whip, a bag of “skinny girl” single-serving popcorn bags, and finished it off with some sour gummy bears :)

I made this for lunch, from scratch! 440 calories is SUPER LOW for a freaking pizza. You can go find a single slice of pizza for 440 cal at most chains! Dough: The pizza dough is a recipe from Skinnytaste.com and was very simple to make! I used 1/2 portion of the Skinnytaste recipe, 280 cal • Cheese - 2 oz mozzarella (140 cal) chopped fine and sprinkled evenly • Other toppings - chopped cherry tomatoes and basic, negligible calories What a tasty lunch! I will be making this more often!

Full day of food! Well, almost. After I finished dinner tonight I decided I had not eaten enough calories for my activity level (5 mile hike and 10 miles of walking!) so I ate some more. • Breakfast - a tasty peach! • Lunch - hungry after a hike so I made 5-egg-white omelette with veggies, a big handful of steamed asparagus, and a few oz of leftover steak. • Snack! - I made mini pizzas out of mini corn tortillas, light sauce and cheese, turkey pepperoni and chicken sausage and olives. Tasty! • Snack! - Trout BLT on a sandwich thin (140 cal). I used miracle whip light instead of mayo to save calories. • Dinner! - spaghetti and meatballs using shiritaki/konjac/konyakku noodles. To boost my calories some more I ate strawberries and cool whip, a single-serving bag of popcorn, and my kids leftover spaghetti. Oh and some gummy bears :) that brought me to about 1500 cal for the day, still a big deficit!

This day was going along GREAT until I botched it by eating over 400 cals worth of food from my toddlers plate. A 1500 cal day is still a good day for me though, I won’t complain too much! • The cold spaghetti and restaurant meatballs weren’t worth it, and the syrup-covered two silver dollar pancakes weren’t worth it either. • I have a new goal for the coming week: don’t eat of the baby’s plate. My stomach is not a trash can, just throw the unrated food out! • Breakfast - a delicious peach! • Brunch - restaurant veggie salad with dressing on the side, and a side of grilled chicken. I also got a small bowl of mixed berries. I ate my kids unrated syrupy pancakes and bacon here, ugh! • Dinner - half a personal sized frozen cheese pizza here (320 cal) and I added some toppings of my own. I added .5 oz of turkey pepperoni, some black olives, some chicken sausage from an unrated breakfast patty, and some chopped cherry tomatoes. Yum! Made a really big side of chopped cucumber and tomato with some feta cheese, Italian herbs, red wine vinegar and balsamic. • late snack - the remaining side salad from dinner and my kids leftover spaghetti and meatballs that totally wasn’t worth it!

Hey guys, here is another full day of food! A few calories not shown because they were bites taken from my toddlers plate **Snacks!**- I worked today so had a bunch of snack food to keep my occupied :) I had a baggie of snap peas, a single serving container of 0% Greek yogurt, and a whole pint of halo top! **Dinner** - Trout BLTs with a side salad! I’ve been posting those a lot lately because I’ve been using up a few leftover trout fillets. I used a “sandwich thin” bread I found in the bread isle, 2 pieces is only 150 cal and it was pretty tasty. I’ve also been using lite miracle whip instead of mayo to save some calories. For the side salad I have an Italian vinaigrette which is 40 cal/tbsp And is pretty good. **Umm, 2nd dinner** - I was still hungry so I made a bowl of ramen! Single serving baggie of ramen (200 cal), and I add a handful of frozen peas and broccoli florets, some spiraled zucchini for bulk, some enoki mushrooms, and a teaspoon of chicken bouillon. I figure all of that adds about 40 calories. **Dessert** - root beer float! Half a serving of Brewers Delights vanilla ice cream (55 cal or so) with diet root beer. Yum!!

I made a thing! It’s a public service announcement, really. You can make weaved bacon patties for only 90 calories a piece! These “patties” were so scrumptious and only 90 calories each - here is how I made them. -Find thin-cut bacon at your grocery, I use one that is 60 cal per 2 slices. -Open it up and cut the whole slab in half - “Weave” together 6 of the halves, 3 going horizontal and 3 going vertical -Bake in the oven on a cookie sheet for 15 mins or until they’re at the desired crispness. I use a 400F temperature. -if you have some sort of metal grate, like a cooling rack, that fits in your pan, you can lay that on top while it bakes to hold the bacon down nice and flat. These made some greatly great and fun BLTs! Hmm, I bet I could make a keto sandwich using these things as the “bread” - maybe next time!

Ezikiel brand pita pockets (100 cal) with 1 tbsp hummus each, stuffed full of cucumber and sliced cherry tomato and a big sprinkle of feta cheese Meal 2 - 1/2 of a frozen “smart flour” brand margharita pizza (300 cal) and a huge helping of snap peas Meal 3 - taco night!
