And now I’m back.  I’ve been struggling a lot lately with feeling like I’m working so hard and I’m not losing weight.  Then I question whether I’m really feeding myself sane portions and I question what I eat.  I think it really helps for me to write down and take pictures of what I eat so that I have PROOF that I’m eating like a sane person.  So here goes.

I already forgot to take a picture of my piece of toast that I had before taking Lu to daycare but it looked just like this:

I’m working from home today and I decided to go to Target in the time I usually take for commute. I got to Target before the doors opened!!  I just had to get some toiletries there but I also scored some cute rain boots:

And some new Chucks for Lu:

As I was checking out, the cashier asked me if I had an coupons.  Sadly, I said no.  One of my goals when I move to Boise is to be MUCH better at coupons.  I’m really horrible at it right now and I could be saving SO.MUCH.MONEY.

When I got home from Target I made some oatmeal:

-1/2 cup GF oats
-1 cup homemade almond milk
-dash of salt and cinnamon
-2 tsp maple syrup
-1 TBSP homemade almond butter

I figure getting back to showing what I eat will show people that being Gluten Free ISN’T awful.

And?  If I get funny looks for taking picture of my food at work?  I’ll just tell them I’m working on my photography skills and to SUCK IT!

It turns out that I was only able to eat about half of the oatmeal.  Here’s what was left in the bowl:

Ahhh…it feels good to be back 🙂
