I stepped on the scale this morning and I officially have 10 pounds to loose (I had 10.5 initially, but didn't include that:). So, I lost .5pounds which makes starting this more rewarding. I'm just glad that the numbers are not going up.

Welcome to the site, I hope you find the motivation to lose your extra weight. Just from a former breast-feeding mother, my weight loss occured after I stopped breast-feeding. Kind of like it was keeping the extra weight around for reserve. Just a thought.

Profile Information

About Me:
I gave birth to my son exactly three months ago. I am breastfeeding and thought that the extra weight from my pregnancy would fall off with breastfeeding and it is NOT! I am stuck with an extra 10pounds and I feel trapped inside a fat body! I am so thankful for my baby and know I shouldn't worry about the weight, but to feel better about everything, I just need to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight.
Plan of Choice:
Weight Watchers
Workout Philosophy:
I'm a walk-a-holic, I'm a Running Fanatic, I love lifting weights

Chocolate Chip Cookies

I may have to try these soon! I got this recipe from the Hungry Girl cookbook/website. I love it! I it all fun ideas on how to make fun/yummy food more healthy like brownies, cookies, onion rings, etc.

Chippity Do Dah!
There is a time and place for everything, people. And the time is NOW for chocolate chip cookies at the HG HQ!!! We've developed a recipe for extra-soft, chocolate-chip-packed cookies, each with a POINTS® value of 1*. Our doughy double C creation is actually more like a hybrid of cookies, soft snack bars, and muffins! And unlike some other cookie recipes that yield four dozen cookies and require several baking pans (who needs FOUR DOZEN cookies?!?), our recipe makes exactly eight chunky soft cookies for your chewing pleasure! What are you waiting for? Grab the chocolate chips and flour... STAT!

Ingredients:
3/4 cup whole-wheat flour
1/2 cup Splenda No Calorie Sweetener (granulated)
6 tbsp. unsweetened applesauce
1/4 cup canned pure pumpkin
1/4 cup fat-free liquid egg substitute (like Egg Beaters)
2 1/2 tbsp. mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
2 tbsp. brown sugar, not packed
3/4 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/8 tsp. salt

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a mixing bowl, combine all dry ingredients except for the chocolate chips (flour, Splenda, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt). Mix well. In a separate bowl, mix together all wet ingredients (applesauce, pumpkin, egg substitute, and vanilla extract). Add this mixture to the dry ingredients, and stir until completely blended. Then, fold in the chocolate chips. Spray a large baking pan with nonstick spray, and spoon batter into 8 evenly spaced circles. Place pan in the oven for about 10 minutes (until cookies appear done and feel firm). Remove pan from the oven and allow cookies to cool slightly. For best results, enjoy while the cookies are still warm and the chips are still melty! MAKES 8 SERVINGS
