Sinus Infections Are The Worst

Ugghhh having a bad morning. I woke up around 6:30 AM and had a huge headache, I thought it was really nothing and tried to go back to sleep. Woke up at again at 8:30 AM and it was still killing me, worse now. I finally found something I could take, some Advil Sinus medicine and went back to sleep. I couldn't even keep my eyes open, the pillow felt like bricks and my nose was killing me. Once it calmed down, I fell back asleep. I woke up later than I should, but luckily the pain wasn't as strong anymore.

I hate sinus pressure and headaches. I have never experienced them before in my whole life, except a couple years ago. They come every now and again, but they really hurt. I am hoping if I keep up with the medicine today, it will go away and never come back. I am working tonight 1:15-9:15.

Last night following the Simple Start plan I had skinless roasted turkey breast, with frozen mixed veggies and a sweet potato and a scoop of Fat Free Cottage Cheese. Also had a side salad with tomatoes with fat free shredded cheese and fat free dressing For my indulgence left of two points, I had a mini WW bar, so yummy. And because I ran earlier I was still a bit hungry I choose a snack on the Simple Start plan of Fat Free Ricotta Cheese with fresh pineapple, it is really quite good.

This morning I had a bowl of unsweetened shredded wheat cereal with banana, strawberries and blueberries and fat free milk and of course my coffee with Splenda and fat free milk. For my lunch I made a huge bowl of lettuce, tomatoes, fat free feta cheese and fat free dressing and chick peas. It looks so pretty and delicious. I'll post a picture of it later.

 Packed a fruit salad to go alone with it and my water. I am going to throw in a light yogurt and for some crunch a 2pp Weight Watcher snack pack.

I am really liking this Simple Start, it is really easy and I am feeling quite full and satisfied. Weight Watchers is allowing new members to try it for free for the first two weeks.

Give it a try!!

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

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

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
