Life Changers


I have some new favorites that you should probably know about too. 



My Fitness Pal should be renamed My Fitness BFF forever and ever and ever! Eva introduced me to it and now I'm completely obsessed. It's like Facebook for fatties. Best thing ever. I have had the hardest time motivating myself to lose the baby weight and MFP gave me the kick in the butt I need. It's so fun to interact with friends on it and I love seeing how many calories I have left throughout the day. I've never done anything except EXTREME diets so it feels crazy to be able to eat whatever I want. I'm free! I've only been doing it for 6 days but I've lost 5.1 pounds. My favorite part is that at the end of every day, it predicts what you will weigh in 5 weeks based on what you ate that day. Talk about lighting a fire under your butt! Preston joined too and so did both of my parents. We love it. Preston kills me though. I swear he just thinks about losing weight and his brain convinces his body to do it. Men. Oh, and I also love looking at people's before and afters on the message boards. How nerdy do I sound? I can truly spend an hour looking at the pics and getting motivated! So...seriously....join. And add me as your friend!


 And speaking of dieting, have you tried Trader joe's Cookie Butter? Stop the bus. It's the best thing ever. It's the consistency of peanut butter but gingerbready, nutty cookie deliciousness. It has 90 calories per tablespoon so I break out my little measuring spoons and eat it with some carrots. I know what you're thinking but I would eat anything with cookie butter on it. 


For a girl who used to spend $42 on foundation (true story,) this stuff is Heaven sent! It's so smooth and looks so natural. My skin is naturally super pink and this has the perfect amount of coverage.

Facebook for Fatties - that's flipping AWESOME. I swear, when I was using MFP back in September no one else was, and now that I'm all fat and happy and pregnant everyone and their mother is on there!
