Its been a while since I reported on our weight loss journey ~ everything is going great! Greg is at 43 pounds and I just hit 30 this morning! Yippee ~~~~ confetti, streamers, balloons, & coke zero!!!!!!!
News Flash Update ~ there is a dress I wanted to wear for Allens wedding...its been hanging in my closet for several years and I just didn't want to get rid of it even though it didn't fit ~ but now it does! I am doing a happy dance!
Its been interesting to use Pinterest to find no/low carb ideas for dinners. I will go ahead and confess ~ we do eat at least one meal a day. We just weren't happy with no food, but there are tons of ideas out there and some have been downright tasty!
We all love pasta at this house and that's a huge no-no. I found an alternative recipe to use and we tried it Monday night. This recipe called for using broccoli slaw instead of noodles. Their instructions were to spray a skillet with non stick cooking spray, add the slaw, and 1/4 cup water and sauté until the water was evaporated ~ then top with your spaghetti sauce and serve. I used 1/2 cup water because a 1/4 just didn't look like much. Greg liked it ~ it was ok to me. But part of the ok was from the broccoli still having a crunch to it. Next time, I am going to boil it. Honestly, the broccoli didn't seem to change the taste of the sauce too much. So that was a success!
We've got some other ideas for things to try that I will report on later!
Hope everyone has an awesome weekend!
Its just 22 days till our next family wedding!
