Well Monday I went to my first weigh in in about a month. I knew I had gained, because I had not been keeping track. I only gained 1.6 lbs. I was very proud and impressed with myself. As I mentioned before though, I am more than ready to get back on track!
I have not tried the recipe, but I can't wait til I do!
