Weight Loss Journey – Day 43

Yesterday was a lazy day for me and I also ate a lot more than I typically do!  It still amazes me how a person can gain 2.5 lbs overnight.  Still not giving up because I am on the right track and today was a new day. Weigh In:  165.1 This time last week:  163.8…

Cold Pasta Salad with Tomatoes and Onions

You can either use regular store bought italian dressing, or you can make your own, which I did include the recipe below.  Ingredients shown in picture does not have everything – it’s missing the pasta used, tomatoes, onions and other spices for the italian dressing recipe because I ended up combining two different recipes together…

Weight Loss Journey – Day 41

Weight Loss Journey – Day 39

I’m writing this one a bit early because of some events happening later today and not sure when I’ll be able to make the time to finish this post. As a heads up, I’ll be continuing my weight loss journey blog posts up until the end of this month.  At that time, I’ll be taking…

Weight Loss Journey – Day 38

My average is still less than last week, so I’m doing OK on the weight, even though I do weigh more than yesterday.  In this morning’s workout, Harley Pasternak mentioned to ‘Graze, not Gorge’.  I have not been very good about eating a healthy snack in between meals, so I did that today – one…

Chicken, Shrimp, Kielbasa Alfredo Pasta

I am a huge alfredo fan – however, I am not a fan of the canned sauces.  The more you add to the sauce, the more preparation you need – keep that in mind!  For this recipe, I only did a single batch of sauce and split it amongst the two noodles separately once they…

Weight Loss Journey – Day 37

When I weighed myself this morning, the recording actually went through from yesterday, which I was a pound off.  I was actually 163.8 – not 164.8!  Correction has been made on that post. As a heads up, I’ll be continuing my weight loss journey blog posts up until the end of this month.  At that…
