Can I lose, please?!

so....so far with my new "incorporated vegan" food regime, i haven't lost a pound. after analyzing what was preventing me from losing lbs. , i came to the conclusion that the vegan desserts were to blame (see top pic and you'll see why). so i broke up with the desserts (temporarily) and focused more on fruits, veggies and nuts. and guess what? in 2 days, i lost 3.5 lbs. yippee!!the coolest thing about all this, is that i now love eating more vegan stuff! i'm not ordering food from leaf for a while just to see if i can make myself vegan food.... on my own. and i'm proud to say that i do! :)
