Ckn wrap….and let me tell you it is so good that it is sinful!  Ok so now Halloween is over, the time of year has struck where every one wants comfort food, and it just dawned on me!  Thanksgiving day is gonna be a bust this year! MY inlaws asked If we were coming for the big ol’ Turkey day like we do every year, and I said yes, then my father in law belted out yeah! Fried Turkey! Ok….now I am doing good on my diet and truth be told I haven’t had any fat fat fat foods since I started!  I am the type where if I get it, I want more, so If I don’t have it I am ok with it…well the only thing that is on my side here is the fact that his fried turkeys come out dry and well not as good as like a rotisserie turkey would.  So I have been contemplating how I would adjust to this big bust of a holiday coming up…well its really not that difficult, I am gonna have to buy a small turkey breast, and pop it into my rotisserie oven and make that!  So be it if he gets mad or his feelings get hurt!  I have worked to darn hard to get a. sick from the extreme fat and oil…and b. fat again!  Now I know one day won’t hurt some of you say but Oh yes It will! For me it will! I will want more more more!  So I will do that and I will have a ziploc bag of veggies for myself jam packed full, lol…quit laughing….and I will have 1 teaspoon of everything else! That will be plenty to fill me up….Oh yeah so back to the wrap thing…I put CRANBERRIES on my wrap and thats what got me going on the thanksgiving bit, and also (no this may sound gross but I have just discovered spinach as a food in general so I am adjusting to supplimenting it into my foods on a regular basis for the vitamins..)so spinach, cranberries, ckn with ff cheese, mushrooms and onions, and bell peppers, yellow, red peppers, all sau~ted and put on the wrap….First I layered the wrap with the cranberries, then the chkn with the cheese melted on top, next the spinach onions, peppers, and mushrooms on top and folded and mmmmmmmmmmmmmm It was so yummy, sweet too from the cranberries! Ok So I was starving!  I ate very little today and it seemed I waited way to long to eat again! But I am good now and the whole wrap meal, with a side of broccoli and cheese for one was only….540.calories, and ….8fatgrams ( the wraps alone was 4g)so see You were worried about me eatting that wrap…the yummy delicious wrap….Lol…try it I bet you’ll like it!   Oh yeah and the chkn with the cranberries taste like turkey…maybe I will forgo the turkey for a chkn breast…hmmmm just maybe…..

Carbonated water ~ie. the kind from walmart ~sams choice clear american water with no calories and no fat ….is that just like regular soda’s does anyone know where it will make you retain water? From the carbonation? I know its better than soda’s cause it has no caffeine…but the carbonation is what I was wondering about…???? Ok til next blog/rant and rave….Ciao!  Angie

How ‘Bout them Hot Rods! Great loss this week! Awesome teamwork! Angie

Ok Its past halloween now And I cant for the life of me figure out how to post the pictures on my page so I posted the pictures as before and after…lol….no I’m not a man now! lol…This is me and my husband on halloween as wonder Woman and Superman! We had fun and all we did was dress up and take the kids trick or treating! We had a blast though…not diet related but I thought ya’ll would get a kick out of seeing this….scroll down to the bottom of the page to see!

I have hit the 50lb club! And I got a Blue star! I am so excited! And happy! Who woulda ever thought when joining buddy slim that all the buddies would have such a positive impact on me! I look forward to every day checking in with my favorite buddies, and finding out how I can help motivate them and in turn how thay help to motivate me! I do so much love my buddies on here and they do make such a positive impact on me! I also love my Hot Rod team mates and they grow and continously change weekly! We are all here for a reason and I am glad that we are here to HELP each other and to aid each other in the weight loss struggle that we all have and our reason for joining here! Thanks for being here for me, thanks for the positive feedback, thanks for the advice, and thanks for these darn clothes fitting again! lol….last winter I can remember coming home from work and immediately putting sweat pants on or pajama pants on because anything else felt too binding like I was bloated every day!  It seemed as if while i was gaining weight I would just go and buy the bigger size pj’s so i would have something to wear each month! I would have like 3 pairs at any given time, then one would get snug and I’d buy another to replace it! It feels so good to actually wear jeans now and not feel as if they are binding and too tight, butt hanging out, or not being able to sit with them zipped!  I actually was so tired and cold….(thats another story…I am cold now all the time and I am gonna be in trouble this winter because I have shed all of my fat layers to keep me warm!) that I kept on my jeans last night to bed! I slept like a baby as if they were pj pants and they were very comfy! Not to mention i used to have to go to work with my 18w pants on with a rubber band postioned perfectly so that it would wrap around the button and back through the loop so they would still fit! That sucked! I am glad I gave up the extra weight, I am glad I started my dietting process, I am glad I lost 50 lbs, and I am glad I have clothes that fit now! I miss the junk, but I don’t miss what used to be in the trunk! lol…I had way to much Junk in the trunk! Lol…. 

Been busy, no diet pills, and lost almost 3 lbs!

Last week I was 171.8lbs, but 171 no less! Now this Friday I weighed in, and 169.0 lbs almost 3 lbs lost Wow! I am soooo siked! Ok so why am I so siked? Because I have been really working hard this week, keeping calories/fat low, and deteermined beyond anyones expectations! Not to mention I have stopped taking my diet pill, the dr cut me off, lol…but I had over a month perscription left cause I usually half them.Now it seems as though people are starting to hate on me know saying dont lose anymore weight! I have never had people say that to me before! I still view myself as a fat girl and I am still determined to lose the rest…(19lbs!)My first goal was 160 and It is creeping up ever so quickly, and my final gaol of 150 is looking pretty darm close by now.  I am so excited to put on my new clothes and find that they too dont fir, yet not in the usuall way(well usuall for me)…they are too big! I am beginning to get a sense of higher self esteem now too!  My mother in law who always commented on how FAT I was said yesterday wow you are looking good! So that was a positive comment! I have been very busy this week preparing for halloween, and then halloween, and work, and kids keep me busy too!  Tracy my HotRod exercise advisee exhausted me this week though, lol…still so mad at her for these darn sit-up cramps in my side from Monday!  I did the required and 25 more too, I can’t even believe that! And I walked a mile on Monday, Tuesday, and 1000 miles it seems on Halloween, and now my kids wanna go walking more!They are pushing me just as hard as my team!  My 4 yr old says now that mom is not fat any more! and my 10 year old thinks she is getting fat cause I am wearring smaller shirts that she could even wear if she wore them big!  Well I hope all my buddies are doing good! and I will ck in soon with you all!
