There are two loves I can think of at the moment. pumpkin and technology. I have a great calorie counter on my Itouch. No looking up how many calories in each food. no wheel to turn to see how many calories. No book to flip through. Yup, I am that old. It is easy peasy. I look up the food and hit "add to log" and bam calorie counting done. I am trying to get a deficit of 300-500 calories per week. this way I will lost 2 pounds a week. Not only is this safer and makes weight loss more effective but I am breast feeding and if you lose more than that breast milk can become toxic to the baby. Yup, I did not know that either. Let me just day that just because one breast feeds does not mean they will lose the weight faster. I don't fall into any typical category for anything so that does not apply to me/. So if you are reading this and wondering if you are the only person on the planet who breast feeds and does not lose the weight. you are not alone. I also do not lose it once I quit either. I have to work at it.
My other love is pumpkin. Pumpkin creamer, pumpkin pie, pumpkin pancakes, and the smell of pumpkin candles. I have discovered putting pumpkin in my oatmeal. OH MY WORD!! yumminess. It is also good for you. A little cinnamon and honey. Good to go. Which by the way I use honey to use for sweetener. it may have more calories but it is "God made" so way better than the refined or what I like to call "cancer in a packet".
Today brings Zumba. I will yell at the TV because it has been months since I have done it.
