Happy Mothersday

First of all... Happy Mothersday to all the amazing Moms out there. For having the toughest job but yet most rewarding and most important as well :). Never a dull moment and lots of fun and joyful days behind us and ahead of us :)... 

Big news this week... I changed my diet. It was quite a spontaneous thing but I totally fell in love with it and the results are AMAZING. Alone in the first 5 days (the cleaning phase) I lost 5 lbs and 3.5 % body fat!!! And I'm not big I would say so that's a huge number. I feel great and I really look forward to each new meal that I get to explore and try. I have to cook two meals now because my family wouldn't touch these meals except Dustin :). He enjoys my new breakfast meals that I make for him too and once he finishes school he'll try out more of the plans recipe as well. It's a bit tricky because you have to eat every 4 hrs and even I am not able to manage it because I'm mostly not at home hat the 'eating time slots' so I got creative and started preparing my lunch before heading out for the day and eat when I'm out and about but the healthy option. 

Here is a Walnut Lentil Salad, that was super delicious and so filling, I couldn't even eat the whole plate at one time!!!

My coffee is made with only half a teaspoon of coconut oil (jup... weird but look how amazing it looks) and you mix it in a blender, add a bit of Almond milk, mix again and this amazing looking coffee comes out and I totally enjoy this fancy coffee. I had to admit. I was drinking A LOT OF COFFEE before starting this diet and I am only allowed to drink one 8oz coffee (this style) a day. No milk no creamer :(... but I totally enjoy my one (little bigger cup than 8oz) a day but I sure had some headaches from the caffeine withdraw during the days :(... now I'm fine

Apple Walnut Parfait (Dustin's favorite - to date)

 Egg Salad on Rye Crisp, oh yum...

Oh, look at this cutiepie... my adorable son... isn't he a handsome fellow! He loves playing play-doh

His snow man!

Spinach Scramble, umm that was good too. Even Frank came downstairs and asked what the yummy smell was but he wouldn't eat it though *lol*

Meanwhile this is what my family eats. Loaded Ziti, lots of Mozzarella Cheese and Ricotta... I have the feeling that my smell senses have increased even though they've been always really good but wow... I was just smelling this amazing dish and I felt like I ate a piece *lol*... only me *lol*...

Well, I really enjoy this new journey and the reward is so rewarding that it's hard to say no to it anyway :). Now I'm off to a Sunday Funday I guess... just chilling and seeing what they day will bring. We got a huge trampoline for the kids, hopefully I'll be able to assemble it later today so the kids can start enjoying it and burn out some energy... 

Have a wonderful day y'all :)
