Cinnamon Sugar Banana Muffins

I know what you’re thinking…

This girl shares a LOT of banana recipes!

Okay, I’ll admit, I do share a lot of banana recipes. But when you have a family of five, four of them being males, you tend to go through a LOT of bananas! Therefore, I always have brown bananas at the end of the week, hence, all of the banana recipes

There are so many things you can make with bananas.

This time, I was looking for something a little bit different.

I remember being a kid and loving cinnamon toast. Heck, I still love it today, and so do my kids! So I thought, why not add a cinnamon topping to some basic banana muffins.

As it turns out, this was a fantastic idea.

These muffins are:

1. Extremely easy to make.
2. Very moist
3. Make the perfect snack for you and your kids…or husband, or friend, or anyone in your life!

I really hope you’ll give these a try! Don’t let those brown bananas go to waste!!

So my friend is always doing fitness stuff and he incented me to follow his recent challenge, I will edit a youtube link later so you can see details of my body.

Im doing the push-up challenge for 1 week now, and i really feel some strength gains in my upper body, but i feel a bit weak because of the lack of muscle regeneration and the lack of CARBS.... i miss the taste of cola..guess im a sugar addict!

Edit:: here is the video https://youtu.be/U15rgSt2RQk where you can see my body

NewsFlash: Hubby finally comments on weight loss

Oh yes. I did not see this one coming.

I hide a lot from the rest of the world, however much I can. I believe the more people I tell my goals to, the farther I am from it. CICO, measuring, etc. But since I share a room with my hubby :D , he's in on it. Not because I want to share (or that he wants to know), just because we are around each other a lot.

He knows I hide a weighing scale in my closet, he knows when I drink my secret protein shake after gym, he knows when I am checking myself out in the mirror, he knows when I am trying strange hair experiments - I am CG for a while now and fellow curlies will know what I am taking about.

I have lost 10kgs in the past 130 days (yay!). The changes were evident to my parents right away, my in laws soon after and pretty much everyone in the family said something when they saw me a wedding recently.

However, hubby has been quite mum. Which is good and bad. Good because he doesn't notice/comment on gains either. He isn't super observant and also I am super sensitive about my weight so early on in our relationship, it was pretty clear that anyone's weight is none of our business and I am not down to talk about sizes.

He commented about my arms being thin last week in the dark in bed, but that was about it- comments wise. We went to the beach on Saturday. As we were walking, he put his hands on my waist and said. Now I finally see it. You've lost weight! Look at this figure! as he ran his hands along both the sides of my torso, staring at it. I was like huh. Really? Thanks, being uber cool. But I was jumping inside. :D

Note: The clothes I wore to the beach were new (none of my pants stayed on anymore so I had bought a tshirt and a pair of pants to wear in public. :P ) So that might have had something to do with him noticing? IDK. It was pretty awesome though.

Have a great week starting/losing/maintaining, you guys! <3

Fell off the wagon, looking for support

Back in May, frustrated with my previous failed attempts at weight loss I started the Kaiser Medical Weight Management program, along with two dozen other people. I'm morbidly obese, an emotional eater and used to have binge eating issues. It's a 30 week program that starts with full meal replacement Optifast protein shakes and protein bars and teaches you to lose weight with SMART skills. There were a few meals where I ate out and ate food instead of the meal replacement, but I was able to go right back to the plan. Over the past few weeks we started transitioning back to food and I haven't followed the plan at all. I haven't been to the weekly meeting in a few weeks and I'm embarrassed to even go back. I feel like a failure. Yet every day I try to start over and just fail at tracking my food intake and eating healthy again. Any suggestions to get my butt in gear and get out of this loop would be appreciated.

REDDIT, I NEED YOUR HELP!! And I know we CAN do this together!!

Ok reddit. This may be a little long winded, but here is a backstory. I was close to 300 lbs in high school and hated every minute of it. Nothing was fun to me minus playing video games.

I went on a weight loss journey about 5 years ago and it ended up with me weighing about 195 at the end of it. I felt great, started to hook up with the girls I never thought I had a chance with.

Fast foward to today, I am in an awesome relationship, but I have gotten extremley comfortable. I make excuses on why to not go to the gym and all I do is work close to 40 to 50 hours a week and play videos/hang out with my girlfriend.

I need YOUR help to get me motivated again. My diet needs to change. I eat like complete shit. I need a workout routine or something that I can do that will be effective to losing weight. I stand for 8-10 hours a day so running is not necessarily something I have the desire to do anymore. That is how I lost all my weight to start.

Frame of reference I am back up to 260 again, and I really do want to make a change. I NEED this to stick, for myself, for my relationship, for my career and for my health. Reddit, lets kick some ass together!

Anyone else dislike comments about weight loss?

Maybe I'm in a minority, but I hate when people comment on my weight loss. Mainly I don't like when people I don't know and have never conversed with before/with whom I've never discussed my body/strangers make comments. I also don't like my family to comment because they've always been so judgemental about my weight and the "compliments" seem back handed. I consider my weight/body to be personal and I'm generally a reserved person, so I dislike the feeling that people are monitoring my body. Comments don't feel supportive or complimentary when they come from strangers or from people like my family who have been so rude about my weight.

I don't discuss weight loss with anyone except a few close friends, so I think it's weird when people comment. When people comment, I act really confused and make ot awkward for them so they drop it and don't do it again.

Is it just me?

TL;DR Anyone else hate it when people (or certain people) comment on weight loss?
