before and after pics.

as you all know i have been gone at least a month. well around march 4 or 5th, i was in san jose for about 4 days. i then came back to orange county and while my mom was on vacation, i didn't do any exercising. i lost a total of 2 or 3 pounds. when my mom came back, i took another week off and lost another 2 or 3 pounds. but if you are wondering what i looked like when i was at my heaviest, here it is:



and here i am a couple of nights ago:



this past week, i went to the gym 3 times. here are a couple of eats from the past week:

those are a couple of eats from the past week. i don't know what i am doing tonight but the tournament is on!! i don't want to say this but i really really really think that kentucky is going to win the thing!

hello everybody!!!

i just wanted to make a quick post while steve martin and alec baldwin make fun of the precious cast. today i went to starbizzle to start of the day and it was exactly what i needed. i ordered a venti lced latte and put in one sweet'n'low pack.

demonstration:


then for lunch i had a tomato tart from pascal's in newport. yum to the o. no pictures of that. for snacks i had flour tortillas from anchos in riverside and they have the best tortillas in southern california. they.are.awesome.

for din din i had cereal because i am SERIOUSLY watching my weight. and i am down to 35 pounds from what i weighed in college. it's going to be a tough road.

also on the tpic of non food, i recently bought a "gold" ipod nano. 16gb. here is a lovely pic of the awesome thing:




and recently i have been looking for music to fill it up with. i found the vs pink spring break 2010 playlist and it's filled with amazing artists i have never heard of. i also found au revoir simone from homegirl can eat's blog or her recent post. and just random other music by pete tong. he is seriously amazing. also last weekend we went to lb steak on santana row and we had an amazing meal. i suggest all of those who live in the area, go their immediately. here is a pic from the night:



enjoy the oscar's!!
