Success - For the First Time in a Long Time!
CHRISFROMCT



I weighed myself at mom-in-law's yesterday - I've lost 10 lbs!

That's not an amazing amount in and of itself, as I joined SparkPeople and began this quest 6 weeks ago. But....I feel that I am making more changes than just taking the pounds off; the sensible eating and getting healthier is becoming a little more natural.

Like most of us here, I've lost weight before, here and there - and it comes back because I feel so deprived and unable to change habits.

Right now I feel as though I am doing really well at making lifestyle changes and I think that's a huge part of the battle.

SparkPeople isn't just about "me me me." It's about supporting one another. I want to thank everyone who takes a moment to lend support to each other, whether it's by responding with a comment or just reading and thinking about the health of others, as well as their own.

Chef Meg's Zucchini Muffins

These muffins are very filling!

The whole wheat flour makes for a dense muffin, which I like. You only need to eat one! If you want a lighter muffin try using whole wheat pastry flour, which is more finely ground and available in the bulk bins at larger grocery stores.
