Good afternoon hope everyone is having a great week. Today is Tuesday and I have walked 2 days in a row. I am at 6200 steps now at 2:00 pm GO GIRL.

Another find is Better Home and Garden Fast and Healthy. Again at Walgreens  $9.99 These recipes have all the values to plug into your app. This one offered so much i am having a hard time deciding what to include.

Whats not to like chocolate, peanut butter and banana in oats , Tea'd Up Cocktails page 17 for my drinkers. I am going no further get read it modify it to fit your program.

The third one has no values listed but the recipes can be modified. It is the Centennial Kitchen Instant Pot Recipes  again at Walgreens.

Todays recipes are salad dressings. I hate the stuff on the shelves. I will eat almost anything but there is something not right with these bottled dressings, so here goes.

Good Morning Monday


I hope you had a great weekend, good food , busy activities and being with who you love.

I had dinner with my friend Juliana at her restaurant last night and as we discussed foods and what our bodies need she made the most profound statement ,  she said " I am the caretaker of my body and I should take the best of care of it inside and out". THINK about that round, it around in your head the next time you stuff it with no benefit stuff. WOW my friend, it was a profound night. She feels the same way about the ground she has been given where she lives, she takes care of her home inside and out. What a smart woman.

I guess you are asking yourself what I ate at the restaurant, the same thing I eat every sunday night when I am not traveling, an egg roll and a soup.

This weeks recipes are as follows:

Skinnytaste

Bagels 3 points
Bacon Egg and Avocado Breakfast Sandwich 6 point
Skinny Low York Egg Salad 1 point


Diethood

Ground Turkey Black Bean Enchiladas  7 points
Cilantro Vinaigrette Coleslaw 2 points
Light Creamy Chicken Tortilla Soup 4 points

Eat The Grains

Paleo Buffalo Ranch Chicken Salad 9 points

WW

Spring Chicken Salad 4 points
Shrimp Taco Toasadas 3 points
Ham and Cheese Omelet 3 points


I hope you find some new things to cook and enjoy your journey in life.

Interesting Information:

The Times Picayune August 8th in Nola section had a very good readable articles  titled "Being Overweight Is More Dangerous Than You Think"

They listed Cancer as number one. There are 13 cancers associated with excess weight. Inflammation, reflux and heartburn are also linked. (Downer)

Mood, which includes depression and other mental health are associated with excessive weight.(Downer)

Sleep Apnea which can make it harder to lose weight because the body has to work harder and doesn't have the chance it needs to repair itself. (Downer)

They suggest 3 things the same 3 things we have heard from Laurie on Wednesday morning, #1 Be Mindful, give yourself a break, pay attention to your WHY. Ask yourself Am I hungry?, Bored with life? Unhappy with my situation ? Hate my Job? We eat to stay alive and be healthy.

#2Eliminate added sugars, when we eat sugars we crave more sugars. They are sneaky, honey, agave, coconut sugars organic cane syrup, molasses, maple syrup and all other those chemical names from the factories. Some is okay but they are in everything.

#3Include physical activities, try walk and talk with a friend, reset your daily routines , this is the one i am working to achieve. after 75 years of no activities this is new to me. I have a bounce in my walk these days. Just Amazing and it it is all to my WW family and Leaders and Go FREESTYLE.



New Recipe:  Ruben Lettuce Wrap 4 points per roll.


4 cabbage leaves softened
2 Tbs spoons of FF Thousand Island Dressing
4 slices low fat swiss cheese
24 thin slices of turkey pastrami
2 cups shredded cabbage

divide all into 4 servings wrap them up in the cabbage leaves.
