Bummed I tell you bummed. I ordered this cute vegan shirt (cow-hugger) and it's too snug! They did warn that the sizes run small but you know I'm hard-headed and went ahead and ordered it. It's sitting on top of my dresser as motivation right now!

Hey! At least you have motivation!

Sometimes that's all we need :D

aww... sounds like an awesome shirt, though! I'm sure you'll be able to wear it soon. =)

At least today's breakfast was great :). Not only really yummy (whole/multigrain pancakes, fresh strawberries, Greek yogurt with a little maple syrup, vanilla & cinnamon in it), but easy too, because I had leftover pancakes frozen in the freezer.

Yesterday's breakfast was a disaster. Trader Joe's Super Firm tofu is too firm for scrambled eggs (ate them anyway, of course, and they'll be good in a warp today). I burnt my sweet potato fries and had to throw them out. Made toast instead, wondered why it was taking so long ... toaster wasn't plugged in. Other stuff I've repressed already.

Mmm, there's still yogurt in the bowl, must go lick it out ;).

Darby you are doing great with your weight loss!! 6 lbs! :cheer2: Kierr one pound! :cheer2:
JulieJ 1 1/2 lbs loss! :cheer2: Kindy 1 lb gone! :cheer2: Chickpea 1 1/2 lbs for you! :cheer2:

Everyones doing great, and if we have maintained, lost a little or lost a lot that is wonderfuL! If we have gained... maybe its our body just trying to slow us down :) We can do it!

1/2 pound loss for me :) I know I could be trying harder, but since I'm newly vegan I don't want to rush anything. Oh well, as long as I lose something! I might need to kick my butt soon, I ordered a corset to wear for halloween, and ordered Large, then after I ordered realized I might need a XL. So we'll see! FATCHICKBGONE glad your cute shirt is motivation, I might be in the same boat soon! ;)

So sorry about my tardiness! I am down 3lbs

I'm at 204.4 - BAH up front last week. Could I please just get below 200??? Please, pretty please? Seriously someone wire my mouth shut and strap me to a treadmill for a day or two - that's all it would take!

Thank you for your weigh-ins... we still have some others they need to weigh in as well! :)

BGONE.. You can make onederland I know you can!!

157.5 for me.

Hey Sheila! Thanks for your weigh in :) How have you been doing!!

mmm... i just got a recipe for vegan mac and cheese made w/ nutritional yeast. My co-worker was eating it for lunch the other day and it smelled sooo good, so I asked for the recipe. I can't wait to try it - but probably not till the weekend.

I've never used nutritional yeast, but thats sounds yummy :) Let us know how it turns out.

Hey there, I'm just checking in.

Heather-your t-shirt sounds cute! You'll be wearing it in no time!

Iris-I love vegan mac & cheese. I probably make it once a week. It's easy and delicious!

jillnicole-nutritional yeast is wonderful for making cheesy-type sauces. It's got B-vitamins in it too that vegans have a hard time getting, so it's good for us.

I've been awful these past few days. I haven't worked out and I definitely haven't been eating right. I'm scared to get on the scale on Friday!

On Saturday we're supposed to go to Boulder and have lunch. I get to decide where we eat and I'm having a tough time. There's a burger place that's all plant-based and organic. But I just found out there's a Chinese restaurant that has it's own vegan menu. There are about 28 vegetarian or veg-friendly restaurants in Boulder, according to HappyCow. In my crummy town there are 4 (and those only have one or two veg-options) which is strange because we have 2 colleges and kind of a hippie vibe in some parts of town.

Anyway, if I'm going out to eat on Saturday I need to go work out!

Have a great day!

ooops! Im very late, but Im now 230...down 8lbs!
