Weekly Weigh In: Decided to do it

I know I canceled the Tuesday weigh in because I was in Orlando and couldn't get to my regular one, but we had gotten back early on Wednesday, so to keep with routine and my sanity, I went and weighed in.

I was not expecting anything because we were out of our element for the weekend and the day yesterday. And I don't know what was going on but I was starving! I mean I could eat anything and everything in sight. I was making the best choices possible, but I can tell my stomach is starving a lot.

It is so hard to find a really good rhythm and way to figuring out what works best for you. I have a lot of running coming up this weekend and I am eating a lot more than I normally do, but I know I need too, to keep my energy up and moving, if I want to succeed. So I am listening and feeling my hungry and eating more, which you know what is working well for me.

To my very much surprise, I lost .6! Not a whole lot of a loss like I was hoping, but if that isn't exciting enough for me, I don't know what is. I was able to go on a mini vacation, enjoy myself and still lose weight because I am doing it the right way.

Now my focus for the rest of the weekend, is to just fuel and refuel my body right, give it back what it needs and what I took from it. I am so excited for this weekend I could go and run now lol.

So I am happy to report I lost a little weight and moving in the right direction. Now this Tuesday might be different, because after every long run I do, I always seem to gain, but I am getting so much more out of it!

Have a great Thursday night!

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
