Five Products I Am Loving

I think the biggest thing to my success with losing weight and sticking to it has been my desire to try new products and find new products. I am not one to make the same thing every day or stick to the same items and meals, I need variety and that is what I look for at the grocery store.

Here are 5 items I am glad I found and really loving lately:



This brand of ice cream is truly fantastic and award winning in my book. They have a huge variety of different flavors, I have tried the Chocolate Peanut Butter and this one Vanilla Maple. If you check them out online they have some many different kinds, they also have a store locator's, so you can try to find which retailers sell it. I found this one at Publix, a grocery store around here. A serving is 1/2 cup which is only 1pp, BUT the whole pint is 4 pp!! Yeah the whole thing is only 4pp!! Not that I suggest eating the whole thing, but I mean if you had a night where you may want too, this should be the first thing you grab.


Here are the stats for the ice cream!


I LOVE the Laughing Cow brand, the wedges have been a huge part of my success. I love cheese, I love cheese and crackers, I love just eating cheese, so these wedges are perfect for those cravings I might be having. I put the wedges in my Egg Mugs I make, I use them on sandwiches, on homemade pizza, or just with some reduced fat crackers. My boyfriend even loves them, oooo also they go great on apples. This is the newest flavor to their line of Wedges. It is yummy and very creamy. I put it in with my eggs and gave it a nice creamy texture and taste. Laughing Cow also makes BabyBell cheese rounds, which are fantastic. Make sure to try all these cheese varieties, there is a flavor you are sure to love.


This item can only be found at Weight Watcher store locations, but if you have one in your area that your a part of, pick this up. It has a nice lemon kick and the couscous is filling. The chicken is mixed it and when all heated up it is actually a bit creamy. It was quick and easy and perfect for at work. The picture doesn't do it justice, I sprinkled in some cayenne pepper, to give it some heat. I hope these stay around for a while at the locations.


These can only be found at WW locations also, put since your there to get the last item, get these too! I have loved these since last year and forgot about them and how much I love them. They are a fun size shaped and perfect for that sweet tooth craving you may be experiencing. It tastes like vanilla cake with icing and even sprinkles. I throw these into my purse while at the movies and for a mid afternoon sweet treat.


And of course I love my QuestBars!!! I mean I am obsessed with them. This one is the newest of the bars, Double Chocolate Chunk. It tastes like a combination of a Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and a Chocolate Brownie, as if the two of them had a baby, this is what it would be...

I got mine at GNC and they were running a special of buy 3, get the 4th free, which always seems to be a special they are having. This one might be my new favorite, I cant wait to heat it up too. Look at those chunks of chocolate chips!! See I have a big obsession with them.

Eat up and Enjoy!!

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look

Let's Go To The Movies....And EAT at Cobb Theaters Tyrone

Image
As part of the Tampa Bay Bloggers, I was given access and a gift card to tour the new Cobb Theatre at the Tyrone Square Mall for social share and blog post, all opinions and reviews are my own. I have lived in the St. Petersburg Area for almost 7 years now and worked at the Tyrone Square Mall for 6.5. In those 6.5 years, I anxiously waited for the mall to get a movie theatre and the time has finally come and this is not just any run of the mill movie theatre, this one is luxury and spacious and a whole experience on its own. Nanci, over at This Crazy Life of Mine , also a Tampa Bay Blogger and more importantly one of my besties, and I have partnered with our blog post about the Cobb Experience. She was in attendance also and there is so much to tell you, we decided to break it up into TWO part posts, linking to the two of our blogs together. I am going to give you the details on the food experience at Cobb, believe me it is more than just soda, candy and popcorn and Nanci is going
