It's official, week 2. I really slacked in working out this week, and I was being pretty hard on myself about it, but it is very difficult when you work midnights to want or have the energy to work out.
I also have a confession... I did not follow weight watcher this week. In fact, I'm not sure if I will do it again. I have found something very similar but meets my needs. It is call the Eat Clean Diet.
This is what the Eat Clean Diet is:
Clean eating is NOT a diet
Clean eating is NOT a calorie restriction
Clean eating is NOT about meal frequency
Clean eating is NOT deprivation
Clean eating is NOT perfection
Clean Eating guidelines:
Avoid Processed foods
Avoid most refined foods
Avoid Artificial ingredients and preservatives
Avoid Alcohol
Avoid Soda Pop and Fruit Juices(added and natural sugars)
It is similar to Weight Watchers, but I can eat when I'm hungry, I don't have to completely freak out about grains/carbs, it has the same concepts, but it just seems more fitting and less "harsh" for me. I really liked not having to count my "Points" this week. I ate when I was hungry!!! I did not go grab a Big Mac, I was still making healthy food choices and watching what was in the product, but I was FULL!
And you know what the best part is.... I still LOST weight. Maybe not AS much as I would have liked to this week, but hey, everything takes time, and I am still getting used to my new food choices. (I also only worked out like maybe 2 times :-X).
Original Weight: 148.6 Lbs
This Week's Weight: 146.2 Lbs
Weight Loss Total: 2.4 Lbs!!!!!!!
It might not be as much weight loss as I would like, but it is still an accomplishment, and I am very happy!

Recipe.... Fail
Tonight I tried to make Cauliflower Pepperoni Pizza Casserole (recipe from skinnytaste.com, and I would have to say I was pretty darn excited about this recipe. It looked and smelled awesome. Until we tasted it. The cauliflower "crust" just was not very fitting for this dish. And nevertheless we probably wont be making this again...
