2.5 pounds gone!

Well, it's been another 2 weeks and I lost 2.5 pounds! That's a total of 9.5 pounds since I started nutrisystem. I'm happy that I'm losing, even though I think it's a small amount. I have been walking more last week and getting motivated to exercise. Lately, if I don't think I have time to exercise, I will go shopping, but before I actually go shopping, I'll park my car in the parking lot and walk 20 minutes. After I do my walking, I will do my shopping.

Trader Joe's Reduced Guilt Pizza

There has been a lot of talk on the Trader Joe's Reduced Guilt Pizza. I guess a lot of people sub this pizza for their nutrisystem dinners. So, I decided to try it. It was pretty good. I added artichokes and sliced tomatoes and I was happy with the taste. I also tried a 150 calorie pizza from whole foods, but didn't like it that much. Not much taste to it. The trader joe's reduced guilt pizza is much better!

BBQ Sauce with Pork Wrap

I was really scared to try this. Some negative reviews on the nutrisystem board, but it was really good. I sauteed some bell peppers and onions, mixed in the bbq pork wrap, put it in a tortilla with a dab of ff sour cream. It was pretty good. The only problem I had with this is that it fell apart! Next time, I want to try to make it like an open face pizza. A lot of people on the nutrisystem boards recommend this!

3 pounds gone!

I haven't weighed myself in about two weeks, but I lost 3 pounds (7 pounds since I started the nutrisystem). I was hoping for at least 4 pounds, but I haven't exercised much. My weight is getting less, so that's all that matters to me. I just need to get to the gym more often!

Spinach & Cheese Stuffed Shells (frozen)

I wanted to tell you guys a funny story. The other day, I took my nutrisystem dinner (Spinach & Cheese Stuffed Shells) to my massage class the other night. When we all had our break, I cooked it in the microwave and started eating it. Everybody asked what smelled so good! Of course, they all saw me eating my spinach & cheese stuffed shells. My massage instructor said, "I don't get it. How can something smell so good?" I thought that was funny and wanted to share that with you. It was pretty tasty and one of my favorite frozen meals.

Sloppy Joe Review

I had the sloppy joes yesterday. I sauteed some onions and bell peppers and added that to the sloppy joe mix with 1 oz. of wheat pasta. It looked really good, but it didn't taste that good! In fact, I couldn't finish it. My stomach hurt a little after eating it. I went on the boards and asked about the sloppy joes and somebody commented that they also had the sloppy joes and had severe gas cramps. I didn't have any gas cramps, just my stomach hurt. But, the next day I had a lot of gas! I won't be ordering these again!!

Day 26 - Breakfast

I once saw a blog about making fruity crepes using the nutrisystem package pancake mix. I wanted to try them so bad! It looked so good. For some reason, I could not flip the crepe. It was just too mushy. I made rasberry pancakes instead and they were aweseome! This is what I did:

1. I made pancakes like normal.
2. I added 1 cup of rasberries, a little water, and 1 tsp of splenda into a sauce pan. Cooked on medium heat until it looked saucy.
3. Put the rasberry and sauce on the pancake with a drop of ff cool whip.

Here is the blog about how to make fruity crepes. Maybe you will have better luck than I did:
