Trim Healthy Mama Week Three in Review

Well, it's been three weeks since I started Trim Healthy Mama (THM).  It seems to get easier as the weeks go by.  The only real issue is trying to find tasty desserts and muffins.  While I'm not the best baker in town, I do like to try my hand at it.  It's just been tough trying to find recipes that the family will enjoy.  Caleb, who is my willing guinea pig, will eat just about anything.  He's been funny about trying the new recipes...saying that some taste better than my old versions.  I, myself, find that shocking and hard to believe, because the old version was so darn yummy.  But -- I just keep telling him that the longer I do this, the better I'll get at tweaking and finding just the right recipes for us.

Here's what I ate during the past week.

Now, for the results from the scale...
Week 1 loss:  5.2 lbs
Week 2 loss:  1.6 lbs
Week 3 loss:  0.4 lbs (I'm not sure how accurate this is b/c the scale was being finicky)
TOTAL weight loss so far:  7.2

Like I mentioned last week, it's not just about the scale.  I am still noticing that inches are going away, but I won't measure until the 15th of this month.  As always, if you're interested in learning more about THM or want to order any of the products, I'd appreciate if you clicked through my affiliate link.  It won't affect your purchase, but it does offer me a small kickback for sharing more about THM.  Feel free to ask any questions in the comments.  I'd love to help you start this journey if you're interested.
