Gettin’ Back in the Greens

I am more than okay with some Thanksgiving indulgence. I spend most of the year watching pretty closely what I eat and how much I exercise. While I don’t intend on ruining my hard work over the holidays, I also don’t intend on skipping out on my favorite indulgences.

But my body was craving salad tonight.

And scallops:

With some leftovers.

This picture is a double after picture. After because the food’s already been eaten, and after because it was taken with my new lens! I still have a lot more learning to do, but I’m so excited for it.

Check out the detail this baby can get!

Non-Scale Victories

Today, my mom and I drove past a Wendy’s as we pulled out of the Target parking lot. I remember, just two years ago, feigning extreme hunger so that we HAD to stop there. Today? I got a little nauseous looking at it. (I also have a serious headache from all the sugary goodies I’ve had in the past few days.)

Healthy is my new normal, so I don’t realize often how much I’ve changed, until I realize little things like this.

I came home and went for leftovers. The green beans were a last minute addition when I realized there was nothing green on the plate.

I’M SO EXCITED IT’S CHRISTMAS SEASON. E-mail me at theodora AT theodorablanchfield dot com if you’d like to be on my Christmas card list 😉

What about you? Any recent non-scale victories?
