30 Days of Brave Challenge

30 Days of Brave Challenge
I can’t say enough good things about these Lavash wraps.  The texture, how easy they are to turn into wraps without tearing, how filling – I can’t wait to try making a pizza with one on my baking steel. I found them on the same aisle as the bread and tortillas at Walmart.  Although I will say that they are out of them a lot,...

East Carolina BBQ Sauce

East Carolina BBQ Sauce
Going into this weekend, I had a couple of events that I knew could throw me off my plan, but that I semi planned for.  The first one was a birthday party on Saturday – I enjoyed two beers and half a sandwich, and managed to avoid the cheese tray and the ice cream cookie dessert. On Sunday, my twin sister and I met up...

Premier Protein–Your New BFF for Weight Loss

Premier Protein–Your New BFF for Weight Loss
Premier Protein my friends is your new BFF for Weight Loss.  I get a lot of requests each week to partner with certain products, links to articles, advertising – most of which I just immediately delete after receiving them because I am not going to promote anything that I don’t already use, or think that other people will find value with. I am happy to...

Weekly WI +1.8

Weekly WI +1.8
With my attitude adjustment, my mind set suddenly shifted and I had the perfect Weight Watchers day, despite a gain of 1.8.  I passed by all the pastries at the farmers market and bought more of my favorite mushrooms.  I packed an egg white omelette with 2 tablespoons real bacon bits and Trader Joe’s lite mozzarella (4) topped with 1/3 cup canned potatoes that I...

Attitude Adjustment

Attitude Adjustment
Last night I was reading through some of my old blog posts while the construction crew were working.  I was told unequivocally that I was not to help. And not surprisingly, I read several posts where I put myself down because either I had an impromptu dinner out and didn’t make the best choice.  Or I hadn’t been to the gym in a week. If...

Being diabetic, I go to the doctor twice a year.  Once a year with the endocrinologist and once with the nurse practitioner.  Yesterday’s appointment was with the nurse. I missed my last appointment because I just started working downtown so couldn’t take the day off.  My last appointment was a year ago. Of course the first thing they do is weigh you. I got on...

Under Construction 

Under Construction 
I have the day off from work today for my six month diabetes doctor appointment.  It was nice to sleep in a bit and make breakfast tacos. On Sunday I was walking in my back door, and my stained carpet stairs finally got to me and I pulled it out.  While the kadults were at work.  I am impulsive like that.   This is what...

Vanilla Coffee Banana Protein Pancakes

Vanilla Coffee Banana Protein Pancakes
I have five words to say about this weekend.  I ate all the food.  I didn’t eat a lot of one thing (i.e. deep dish pizza by myself), but I ate a lot of little things.  I didn’t track all my food. I woke up with a taste for apple fritters, but cooler heads prevailed and I made a hash waffle.  This time topped it...

Just a little bit of . . . Effort

Just a little bit of . . .  Effort
I am loving these Lavash wraps.  And I just found a Pinterest board with all the things you can do with them – can’t wait to try these!  Two smart points for the whole thing – only 18 grams of carbs, 1o net carbs.  They are soft, slightly chewy and delish, and make my egg white/cheese/romaine breakfast burrito only 5 smart points. Work was busy...
