Hello, it's been a while but I'm back. Struggling to get these last 25 lbs off but I'll get there. I relocated from MD to Tampa FL last month and left the husband behind. WOOT! lol.  It's been tough, but will be worth it, in the meantime I've let my diet slack a bit. I typically eat protein first but I've let chocolate creep back in.  So today:

EAS carb control protein shake
1/2 Eggo waffle with SF syrup
1 cup chili with cheese
3 small bites banana bread with walnuts
Parmesan crusted talapia
