They are adorable! And they turn Mr.R into a puddle which I also adore. 

 

I’ve been practicing a bit for my plan 😂 I’m thinking the veggie at every meal will be more challenging then I thought mainly because I forget haha.

I made a huge wok of noodles tonight haha 😂 the sauce needs some work and I need more veggies because all the ones I added disappeared. 
 

Me.R got me an iPad as a surprise. It’s an us thing but he says a mostly me thing. It’s funny because I’ve actually wanted one for awhile 😅 so I could get procreate and he actually had no idea.

Welp I got tired of my hair and figured its been a very long time since I got my hair cut professionally lol so I am going to get a hair cut and get my eyebrows waxed. Thats happening in maybe 40 minutes. 

Haha I am so nervous. So I am not a super self conscious person and I think its manly because I never really see myself candidly. BUT 1 thing I absolutely hate is seeing myself at the hair dresser with the cape and my hair super wet and flat because my head looks like a pumpkin. Not sure why it bugs me so much lol but it does. Hopefully the after will be great. I will post a before and after

Cant wait to see Rookie xxx

If it helps, I've never seen another person at the hairdresser with wet hair and thought "man, their head for sure looks like a pumpkin" 🤣 

 

heyyyyy so I had a look at your thread FINALLY and as always I'm mindblown to read so much familiar stuff around here. About the challenge being some blog of failures or just social stuff and the weight loss and waiting for a new challenge and life throwing curveballs and so on. so jelly of your ipad with procreate btw! OMG AND THE PUPPIES. Wish I could get one, they're adorable. It's so mind-boggling that these little still unaware potatoes grow up to have their own distinct personalities and characteristics and will be great companions that hopefully go on many adventures. 

 

right, about the veggies, no idea if that is an option for you but I am lazy and I often eat veggies in a way that I just wash them, cut them in small pieces and put them under the rest of my meal. I also do this with salad when I am too lazy to prepare a dressing which is most of the time. My main dish for a while would be freshly cut veggies, raw, in a bowl, and red lentils or rice or whatever else meal on top. I like to dig them out. They get a bit warmer and they make the whole meal taste fresh and more interesting. I also like the mix of texture with the processed foods and the raw veggies and use to go for zucchini, bell pepper, sometimes cucumber or brakaly (depends on the season, I try to keep this in mind more). Many vegetables you can simply throw in the oven as well but I prefer to eat them raw.

Right!? I cannot wait to see their little personalities come through.

 

I will say I really don't mind sharing my failures and I like "journaling" here lol but I worry people are like "ew why are you even here lol do more" . I know that is probably not the case though and I am sure most can relate in some fashion of thinking they should do more or better.

Every time I try something new that has more veggies I take a mental note lol I just blank when it comes to veggies. For me it is so easy to just meat, potato and corn on the cob it lol. I need to put conscious effort into adding veggies. BUT I know I love raw veggies which are easy. I know I don't love salad unless its loaded and even then I can maybe only have a salad once a week... or every 2 weeks... or month. And I love cabbage and its so easy to add into literally everything. I like roasted cauliflower and am happy to add that in with pasta. At least its not one of those things where I am like "Ew veggies..." its just that I don't think to add them haha.

true. often I look at our salad (I mean literal lettuce), or when we had a green smoothie with kale earlier, and think: phew. at least I don't have to care for veggies now with the meal.
we often buy mixed frozen vegetables and just heat them in a pan, some of them are really good. no added sauces or anything. doesn't feel like "real vegetables" but better than nothing, I guess
