The 17 Day Diet- Day 8

Another creative day! This morning I went crazy with the fruits. I ate some of the green apple slices and peanut butter from Traders Joe and a black plum. Yum. I paired that with chamomile tea and almond silk milk. Still, I wanted to take advantage of the fruits before 2 o'clock rule so I thought I'd get creative. I Googled (instead of Binged like my lame sister--Binged, really...) some recipes for a Peanut Butter smoothie. I found one, but it was with bananas, because peanut butter goes well with bananas, BUT  I can't eat bananas, so I was like THAT SHIT IS BANANAS, B-A-N-A-N-A-S! And decided to substitute it with strawberries. The recipe goes as follows: 2 (I made it 3) tablespoons of  creamy peanut butter (I used the Traders Joe one); 1 tablespoon of honey; 1 cup of milk (I used fat free); 3 strawberries. It makes about 1 1/2 cups of smoothie. First you add the peanut butter, honey, and strawberries in the blender and blend them for a bit. Then you add the milk and blend until it's frothy. You then serve and enjoy! I gotta say, the taste was a little weird at first! I think that peanut butter and strawberries are only allowed to mix when the strawberries are in jam form. Still, it was good. I was pretty proud of my creative epicness haha. Afterwards, I went with my dad grocery shopping so I could have something healthy to eat for once! I got eggs (omelet time), gum (for those gnawing stomach feelings), carrots (they prevent aging!), and post it notes (for inspirational "You'll be skinny one day!" notes. Once I got back home, my mom prepared me a salad with carrots, lettuce, mozzarella cheese pieces and lots of lime. I had that with the same chicken I had yesterday, so it made for a super good and filling meal. Plus my usual tea. I don't know how my bladders are handling all this liquid. No exercise for today, but it's OK. Maybe tomorrow? But I don't know...my weight loss has been stalling around 124 lbs, not a lot of weight loss going on...Let's hope my calorie counter wasn't right in saying that my weight loss would be stalled if I eat less than 1, 200 calories a day O.o

PS: Happy (?) 10 year anniversary of the 9/11 attacks...never forget.

Today's weight: 124.9 lbs
