Um…I think we have graduated to maybe saying “I only like cottage cheese prepared certain ways…” Just sayin’! LOL.

Awesome that you found a few good recipes. I love just hollowing out an apple and putting some sweetener and apple pie spice in there and baking it. Then I fill it with either sweetened cottage cheese (which I don’t think you’d…[Read more]

Woot! You are so motivated. 🙂

Vacation, yay!

I think your goal sounds good. I understand it to be:

1. Make the best choices you can while on vacay.
2. Avoid dairy and wheat when possible.

I’d just empower you to be your own advocate on #2 and remember that restaurants and hotels are not called the HOSPITALITY industry for nothing. Their job is to please you! So make sure you…[Read more]

As I posted earlier this week, I did get my pledge of doing a high intensity workout done.

Ok my life is too damned hectic!

So I woke up, went to work. During my lunch break I walked about a mile to go pick up stuff for my daughter for a retreat she’s attending for the weekend. Walked back.

Oh, and to add to that, I did get my high intensity workout done yesterday. I also got a lecture from my son about spending an hour and a half on the treadmill doing it. Told me it would be overdoing it for him to do that workout for that long. I’m happy to say that I am not anywhere near as sore as I was afraid I would be!

Yes! My cookbooks came and I have been using them! (l made Butterfinger protein ice-cream for my husband as a surprise for after dinner tonight. I can’t ever make that shake without doubling it or I barely get any!)

I have eaten healthy all week although I have been eating more than I should be.

Mid-week sweep! How’s it going? I have a feeling you’re doing awesome, but I just need you to verify that lol 😉

Mid-week sweep! How’s it going with your menu? Do you feel yourself coming out of your rut?

How are things going for you? Have you been avoiding that wheat and dairy? Like I said, let me know if you need help brainstorming recipe substitutions. I’m here for you!

Mid-week sweep! How’s the vacay going? You staying on track?

Can’t wait to hear all about it when you get back.

Mid-week sweep! You doing ok over here? I’ve seen you checking in but I know it’s a stressful week.

Did you get your cookbooks? I hope you did!

Mid-week sweep!

You doing ok over here? Are you beating down the carb monster???
