Back a few months ago, I couldn’t get though a night of TV without chomping on snacks, sometimes all night long.
But now, I sometimes have to force myself to eat an evening snack, just so I can eat all my calories (it’s important to eat all your allotted calories for the day)
Does that sound [...]

Hunger Isn’t As Big of an Issue Anymore
Turkey Meatloaf
I was planning on making pasta with turkey tomato sauce, but figured I might make a meatloaf instead. That way I could take the leftovers and easily make the pasta tomato sauce tomorrow night.
I searched on the Epicurious iPhone app for ground turkey recipes, and found what looked like a good one.

Bell & Evans breaded chicken
Yum, picked up a package of Bell & Evans frozen breaded chicken, and I baked one piece for dinner tonight (Mike went to the ball game). Oh it was just yummy, not at all like other typical frozen breaded chicken burgers!
Bell & Evans patties are made with natural chicken, raised without antibiotics. The patties are [...]
It’ll fill you up
I just had the craziest memory flashback!
My mom never let us have any drinks during meals, even water! She’d say “it’ll fill you up!” Well funny, isn’t that the point of water with meals or in between meals? To make you not over eat?
It’s a funny memory!
Birthday Dinner
Well tomorrow is my 47th birthday. sigh. I have decided not to get too depressed about it. I figure that I have 3 more years until I am 50 and if I can get healthy and reach my goals by then, well I will have nothing to be upset about!
But I am giving into temptations [...]
One more Pound!
Well, I was figuring that I was in a slump. I reached a plateau and I wouldn’t be able to lose any more weight! sigh.
It’s been 15 days since my last weight loss blog post (at 10 lbs total) and I kept weighing myself hoping for a little more. I wasn’t necessarily getting “discouraged” [...]
Tilapia with peppers, onions, tomatoes
Made a delicious dinner tonight, tilapia baked with peppers, onions, & cherry tomatoes on top. No oil used, even when I cooked the veggies on the stove first. The tomatoes helped give it some liquid.
I had something similar on vacation in Franconia, NH, except they topped fish with just roasted peppers. It just yummy, so [...]
Kymaro Body Shaper
Come on ladies, are you really that stupid to believe ads like the Kymaro Body Shaper?
I am sorry, but just looking at the infomercial, it looks like this product is a piece of scammy crap!
For one thing, the ads shout don’t bother with exercise, just put on one of these and you will look slimmer [...]
Junk Junk Nothing But Junk
My husband went to a vending show the other day, and came home with a huge bag of snacks.
The only good thing about this was the bag itself. It was a large mesh bag that could be used for grocery shopping! LOL
In the old days, I would have been thrilled! I would have ate the [...]
Today Was a Good Day
I drove my bike to the library, about a mile away. It was a flat easy ride, and I tried to pedal most of the way.
I got a menu from a new Asian restaurant, so I figured we would treat ourselves. It was fabulous. I got Japanese hibachi chicken with veggies and brown rice, [...]
