Stinkin brownies

I've made it through 5 days of the 30 day shred and still going strong! I've gone all week (yeah I know its only Thursday) eating really well too! I'm feeling really good and I seem to have gained some will power! I also have moved past my mug brownie addiction. Although just typing those words made me drool a little. Not gonna lie. Dang it, I wish I hadn't found those on pinterest. It was all fine and dandy until I popped the ingredients into weight watchers recipe builder to see how many points they are. Um. NOT cool Pinterest. Not Coool. They basically are over half of your daily allowed points. I'm not even going to link the recipe for you, because that would be evil. They take 120 seconds to  make and became Jed and I's favorite after-the-kids-have-went-to-bed-treat. Basically a brownie cooked in a coffee mug with ice cream on top. To-die-for. At least we think so. And seven pounds later, so did my spare tire. Not even kidding here people. I was obsessed. I'd try to go a day without having one, and then they are all I could think about. HAD TO HAVE ONE! Crazy. So it's been about 10 days since I've had one and I think I've got myself under control. Until Jed says, "hey, you should make us one of those brownie things." Oh, SURE OK! Wait, NOOOOOO.

Anyway I'm down 3 pounds in the last 4 days, so I'm pretty excited to see some results on the scale. It helps tremendously that Jed is on a healthy eating kick too and doesn't request naughty stuff for super. It's so much easier when everyone is on board. We're doing a lot of lean meats/chicken and veggies, veggies, veggies. I eat a lot of fruit during the day, so I need those veggies in the evening. We also are trying to go almost carb free in the evening too, or at least bread free. One day at time. We WILL win this battle!
