Day 2 R1

Ummm down 2.7lbs since yesterday!! WHATTT!! I really already love so many things about this weight loss/wellness program w Restoration Wellness. One thing is weighing myself daily lol Many programs discourage this but I like how it gives me an overall picture instead of a once a week pic. Also I get to text/communicate w my wellness coach daily. Previously I lost 150lbs on Jenny Craig but I had to eat all frozen foods w a lot of chemicals, fillers, etc. Tasted ok but not great. I got to see my coach 1x weekly but honestly most of them never did JC and I knew more than them about weight loss biology etc. I have already learned like 3 new things this week about weight loss that I did not know. And I am clearly not new to the weight loss rodeo lol This is the first time though in my whole life-decades of weight loss-that I feel like I’m pursuing health and wellness. Not just chasing a number on a scale. Pictured: breakfast.

Challenges

Prob one of the toughest part of Restoration Wellness program the past two weeks has been time management for meal Prep. So this week my goal is to focus on that. More meal Prep and less coming home so late bc football in Buffalo or bc of being at rehearsal for my shows and having to still make a whole dinner and then eating late. It’s messing w me making sure I’m done eating 3 hours before bed. So even though I have had a hard time w this, I’m still losing weight and doing great on the plan. But it’s important to fine tune things and be 100%!!! Work in progress over here. Meal prepped this morning for lunch and dinner 💪🏽

CousCous Lasagna

I've had this recipe hanging around since I was doing WW Core last year, and never got around to making it. Keith and Mairi both adore couscous, and we are trying to be more meatless, so tonight was the night. It was delish! I'm back on JC so I just had a couple try it bites, but for such a simple recipe, it blended together fabulously! It would taste good with some chicken in it too though :D CousCous Lasagna 1C couscous 1 1/2C boiling broth 1/2t salt 1T EVOO lg diced onion 3 garlic cloves minced 28oz can diced tomatoes, drained (reserve 1/3C of the juice) 1t dried basil 5C finely chopped spinach pepper 1C mozz. cheese Combine couscous and broth let stand 5 minutes preheat oven to 375 saute onion and garlic in EVOO add tomatoes, cook 10m stir mix into couscous add reserved juice, basil, pepper and spinach mix til combined spread half in a 9x13 pan sprinkle mozz top with more couscous cover and bake 30m
