I’m starting to see results. I’m so glad I decided to give myself some grace and just keep going. Sometimes I get discouraged after two weeks and just quit. Even though I haven’t been working as hard I’m still trying. I know I will have some challenges this week. My daughter’s birthday is this week. She wants to go out for hamburgers and frozen yogurt. Plus I am making Princess Leia and Chewbacca cupcakes for her Star Wars party. I will really have to watch my sugar intake. Well, I know I can start every day on the right foot.

If MyFitnessPal is correct that whole smoothie is just under 300 calories. The whole thing! That is quite a lot of smoothie. I’m full.
