Why I'm Breaking Up With Carbs...
My low carb journey to weight loss!I'm addicted to fried foods, and things smothered in chili and cheese! It doesn't help that I'm from TEXAS, home of the Fried everything! I'm 5'5 and my goal is to lose about 75lbs. AND I'm getting married next October and I want to look fabulous in a wedding dress!!I'm blogging the entire experience here. Now for most, this would be easy, buy some veggies, grill your chicken and beef for the week for lunch, dinner, etc. But here is the thing, I do NOT cook, ever! Which is probably the main reason why I'm where I'm at, I lived off of fast food, and I still do. I eat out every single day of the week, so it's a bit more challenging for me to be on this new low carb diet. Oh yeah, it's not a diet, it's a "lifestyle change". I have the help of my wonderful boyfriend who decided he'd join me on this journey. Hope you enjoy reading my blog! xoxo GinaFollow me on INSTAGRAM @breakingupwithcarbs, simple & easy choices whether you are at home, at a restaurant or in the drive thru!

One month later...
It's been about a month since my last post, so much has happened since then, on 6/23/12, I got engaged, and decided to celebrate with cookies n cream ice cream. Up until two weeks ago, I was doing good, but allowing myself to eat more carbs than usual, especially when we were celebrating our engagement. Two weeks ago, I decided that I'd carb out carelessly for two weeks straight. I did, and I feel yucky. Yesterday (Monday) marked day 1 back at it. Yesterday for lunch I had a taco salad, for dinner I had the inside of a grilled chicken sandwich from Wendy's and one of their delicious side caesar salads. Today I had the inside of a bacon ranch chicken quesadilla from Chilli's, 1/2 of a small bowl of chili and a side salad w/ranch. For dinner I had beef and chicken fajitas and charro beans with a little bit of guacamole. I'm excited to see how this will work this time around, now that I've "jump started" this diet again. And somehow I've managed to maintain 30lbs lost... even though I feel like I've gained at least 20. Strange, the only good about it, is my bra's fit again!! hahaha
