A Pocket Red Moleskin

Ask me anything   Suggest a Recipe   I’m not trying to be vain or anything here but….

This is a weight loss/diet blog. It’s not here for people who stumble on here to feel bad. It’s for me to help keep track of my progress and to share how I’m doing with everyone.


And if you are wondering about the title…I’m also tracking my progress and thoughts in a pocket size (well purse size) red moleskin. Something about the bright color keeps me motivated to fill it up.

Ab workouts….

I so need to find some good ones.  I feel like my legs are toning and losing weight because I go walking in the evening and upstairs/downstairs plenty at work but I need to start focusing on my core.  I’m carrying a small weight around as well to work on my arms as I walk but I need some good workouts for my abs.  

AAAAAAAAND, LET THE GOOGLING COMMENCE!

standingonthe-edge asked: Whoa thanks for replying so quickly! xD Seaweed? As in crispy seaweed or soggy seaweed? I never knew they could be eaten sans sushi xD Intriguing. I think I might just try the gronala + soybeans. Soy <3 Thanks again!


Answer:

Haha, no problem.  

Crispy seaweed sheets are good. You can buy it from Trader Joe’s (last I checked it was 99c a pack) or in bulk at Costco.  Seaweed salads (the “soggy kind”) are pretty delicious to!

standingonthe-edge asked: Hey, You are so awesome! Been following you for a while and you have such willpower and you text shines through the computer screen, or something... >.< I was wondering what you snack on? I'm trying to replace my unhealthy snacks with something healthier but I'm just not sure. Can you suggest anything that can be eaten in large amounts, or perhaps just time-consuming to eat but healthy? Maybe some salads i could try to make in bulk or something? Please, nothing with nuts or yoghurt. THANKS xx


Answer:

Aww, thanks! It means a lot, truly. 

As for some healthy snacks, have you tried seaweed?  They come in those little box packs and are supposed to be very good for you.  I’m a bit old school and buy the seaweed sheets for sushi from Asian supermarkets as I find they have less salt and only 10 calories a sheet.

Pomegranate seeds are awesome as well and full of antioxidants.  

 I also love granola and since it’s full of fiber you’ll feel full faster. You should try to make your own trail mix! If you don’t like nuts you can use dried fruit and soybeans.  My friend does that because she is such a picky eater.

You also can’t go wrong with a good old-fashioned apple! =] 

I’ve snacked on all these and <3 it.

Greek yogurt and pomegranate seeds form TJ&#8217;s and cocoa pomegranate trail mix from Archer Farms at Target&#8230;soooooo gooood

EDIT: The total calorie count for this lovely breakfast comes out to 228.5 calories.  Considering that this is an extremely filling breakfast full of fiber&#8230;this is pretty good. Always holds me over all the way through lunch and then longer&#8230;
