Weekly Weigh In: Slight Gain but Expected

It's Tuesday again, which means my weigh in day and meeting day. I actually got out of work on time this week, so I was able to attend my meeting and get there early to chat with my leader and the manager, whom I love and adore dearly. Seriously going to the meetings really make a huge difference, I know that no matter what there is always a huge support system available. Also they were handing out free Chili Lime multi crisps, which is a win because I LOVE them and I was hungry.

Due to the massive, horrible stomach bug I had last week, I knew I was going to have a gain, the weight I lost last Tuesday, had a lot to do with the stomach bug. But when I got on the scale, I gained 2.2, which I was so happy to see the whole 3.6 I was down last week wasn't all due to the stomach bug, finally I was overcoming a bit of my plateau. So even though it is a gain this week, I still have a lost in there. I am not in the 140's anymore, which I hate, but it makes me want to work harder to get there next week. 

This past year has been a big struggle around this weight and then plateau. I am having a hard time getting past these 3 pounds, but I am not giving up, I have a ways to go, but I know eventually it is all going to fall into place. I am really going to fit this week and concentrate and work hard to move that scale.

And pray for no more stomach bugs.

Last week 148.8
This week: 151
+2.2

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 ...

Chobani Flip: Key Lime Crumble

Image
First off I love yogurt!! I love low fat yogurt, flavored, Greek, plain, all kinds!! And I am always out looking for what is new and exciting in the yogurt world, I know I lead an exciting life!! So when these Chobani Flips came out, I was all about it. Unfortunately, I couldn't find them here in Florida right away, when I went home in March to New York, I was able to find them and I fell in love. There are probably at least 10 different kinds of flips, vanilla with oats, pineapple with coconut and walnuts, blueberries with chia seeds and walnuts, coconut with dark chocolate and toasted almonds, peach with dark chocolate chips and pistachios, and my favorite key lime with white chocolate chips and graham cracker pieces. The flip part of the yogurt is the cup is split up into to two sections. One section holds the Key Lime Low Fat Greek Yogurt and the other section holds the White Chocolate Pieces with Graham Cracker Pieces. You flip the fun side into the Key Lime yogurt and...
