Yes I can!!!

Buzzin's

Attitude and belief in yourself is what makes us do or not do. Pass or fail.  Succeed or not.  Desire is important too, but if you repeatedly  tell yourself I don't think I can, but I'll try...right there you are giving yourself a crutch and an OK to fail. You have to believe you can.  You are not perfect, are you?  So some weeks are near awesome and others are not so swell. But you know you CAN  do it.  Look at want you have accomplished in your life.   YOU did it.  You may have had help but it was YOU that reached the goal.  In your weight loss journey it so important to realize this it is a lifestyle change.  No getting your weight off and going back to what you  did before. Nope.  It is up to you to believe you can do this...one small step at a time...then get started.  Or continue toward your goal.   We are ll in this together.  And together we CAN do it!   T*A*I*S!  Are you with me?

S*O*U*P

I know I sound like a broken record but you MUST PLAN!!!  No way around it if you really want to be successful.   Plan meals, snacks, activity and exercise and time for yourself.  Yes, time for yourself  is very important.  But getting back to meal planning...if you have something planned for dinner you will feel better about the day or the week if you plan that far ahead. Things can still go South on you but for those occasions I still have a plan ..S*O*U*P!  I always have a pot of some kind of soup in the fridge ready for that last minute dinner, or gotta have a snack time.  Mostly I just clean out the fridge and Voila!  S*O*U*P!  Right  now I have a  pot of it on the stove...it has leftover chicken, some onions I had chopped for hot dogs, a green pepper that was a bit wrinkly, some chopped baby carrots (always have those on hand with dip for a snack) leftover corn, a 32 ounce box of chicken broth and 3 Tbsp  (one package) dry Ranch dressing.  There you are...S*O*U*P! (Oh, here is my acronym for S*O*U*P...Stay On Ur Plan! )  Sometimes I want my  S*O*U*P thick and I do not want to add any PPVs  I just take about 1/2 of the  S*O*U*P and zap it in the blender and add it back to the pot.  Perfect!  What have you got in your fridge that will make a great soup?  If  you fixed it in the first place and then kept the left overs you like whatever it is. So it will be delicious in your soup. Get a pot going now!  T*A*I*S!

Crock Pot Taco Chicken  You can also shred this and put in Taco shells or wrap in lettuce leaves as lettuce wraps.  >^.^<

Take a look at the new Eat Out and Shop companion books.  The Eat Out one has soooo many new restaurants and foods.  So much Info for PLANNING  your eating out occasions!  The Shop one is a perfect companion to PLANNING our meals and shopping list!  Buy both and it is $19.95...regularly $11.95 each!  What a deal! 

 I keep the Eat one  in my car for the grandkids to look at and pick where we are going to eat.  Then I tell them how many PPVs I want to spend and they find me something to eat at that restaurant.  Family Fun! And they are learning as well.

I'm in charge of MY SPACE!

The PointsPlus program tells you how to eat and make better choices. The new 360* Program helps you live  your life ON PLAN!  So cool. We are concentrating on tracking, routines and spaces.   This week we are talking about creating a friendly fridge. Open the door and look in with the idea of HEALTHY.  With that in mind what would you keep and what would you throw out?  Or move?  I have a 3 door fridge with freezer on bottom. I am right handed and I always open the right door first... And maybe not even open the left one.  So I keep the questionable foods or the grandkids things on the left side. Reasoning being if I don't see it my mind doesn't get fixated on it.  I'm one of those that  once I see it it's a done deal...gobble gobble gobble...well, usually. So if I don't see it I am sooooo much better.  Keep the veggies and low PPV snacks in front and at the ready.  Cuz if you're like me I am going to eat something.  I just have to be mindful of the choice. If you want to lose weight AND keep it off you have given up the luxury of never thinking about what you are
eating.  And it starts with what you have in your Spaces. So give them a check this week...especially
your fridge.  Make it your  friend!   T*A*I*S!

Here are a few ideas using  some Weight Watchers products:

Garden Veggie Omelette-  I fix it in the morning and eat half of it ( even for me 1/2 is plenty with all the protein in it!).   I put the rest in the fridge and at lunch I mix a tablespoon or so of fat free mayo or salad dressing and have an egg salad sandwich!  Delish!

Popped Cinnamon Crisps -  put in a bowl and add milk and eat like cereal. Yummo!

Give these ideas a try and let me know what  you think!  

Mini bars and smoothies and  Popped Crisps on sale.  Have you tied the new Celebration Cake mini bar?  Woozie!  Sooooo good...  T*A*I*S!
