COPYCAT STARBUCKS BREAKFAST SANDWICH // 77 CENTS EACH! // 5SP ON WW PURPLE & BLUE
The turkey bacon egg and cheese breakfast sandwich from Starbucks is a favorite of mine for a quick on-the-go breakfast. But while it is WW Smartpoints, friendly, it isn’t exactly budget-friendly! So I made a few of these at home, and I was able to get SIX for the price I normally pay for just one!

“DIRTY” FOODS I STILL EAT (AND OTHER WEIGHT LOSS CONFESSIONS) // LOSING WEIGHT ON WW // WW PURPLE
I’ve made some efforts in the last year to pay attention to ingredients in my food, and “clean” things up a bit. Today, I’m confessing some things I still eat that are far from clean, and making that point that progress doesn’t have to be perfect.
Check out these channels as well who may posting their own “weight loss confessions” in the next day or two:
