hi! i'm lauren and this is my weight-loss tumblr :) 25 years old, 5'7
HW: 300 lbs (2005)
CW: 203 lbs
good days 2013: 57.6%
what i eat
my workouts
add me on myfitnesspal!
post workout meal:
whole wheat quinoa, broccoli, 3 egg whites, 1 light swiss wedge, basil & garlic
yum! all for just 260 calories and 19 grams protein :)
i was talking to my boyfriend and i realized if i really want to make noticeable progress by the cruise (38 days, BTW) i need to kick this diet into high-gear. im doing great with working out and i am eating healthy, but its not gonna be enough if i really want to see a big change. so today i am starting a new diet!
basically i wont focus so much on the calories as i will on what’s going in my body. i need to eat every 2 1/2-3 hours, to keep my metabolism going. each small meal needs to have a carb, a protein, and either fruit/veggies.
today:
im excited!!!!! but a little scared lol
@1 year agomy lunch!
avocado/cucumber rolls with low-sodium soy sauce, and a chicken teriyaki bowl. yummm.

my new go-to lunch: grilled chicken, brown rice, and spinach.
no sauce, no salt, no nothing.
and its actually really good :)
my lunch: the chicken italiano panini from bocca. its basically grilled chicken with provolone cheese and basil pesto… yummmmm!
i totally just wolfed that down! omg. if i was in a speed-eating race i wouldve won… oops
it looks reallyyyy bad for you haha but its not! they dont add any extra oil (besides the pesto sauce) and its just grilled chicken. the cheese looks like its taking it over but its just all in the front. swearrr
late-night snack: plain nonfat yogurt, back to nature pumpkin seed granola, a bit of cinnamon and low-sugar strawberry jam.
this morning when i was getting dressed i noticed my thighs look smaller!!! ALREADY! like, significantly. and its only been two weeks of weight-training! im so pumped.
47 days to the cruise… let’s hope everything keeps getting smaller! :)
@1 year ago with 4 notespre-workout snack!
two sliced anold double fiber whole wheat bread with peanut butter and honey, 1/2 banana and 2 egg whites
Healthy banana bread pancakes!

they tasted better than they looked lol
(i used applesauce instead of the butter in the recipe, and didnt make the vanilla glaze)
