Slow again, and I thought I should post about the culinary creation from yesterday.

Okay, so I was craving Mac and Cheese and tried to make something similar. Turned out pretty good. So I'm gonna call this my McCheesy Creation.

Okay so I started out with cooking noodles. I used a whole wheat noodle, I believe they were of the Penne varitey, you know the ones that look like mini manicottis. Anyway, I cooked up what was probably two servings of these noodles which would come in totaling 6pts.

Then to create the cheesy goodness. This is were I could of used some help, but it worked out pretty good. Get the 2% milk shreaded cheddar cheese, use about 1/3 cup., which is like 2-3pt. 6 cubes of the laughing cow light swiss cheese - for 1 pt. 1 slice of the fat free kraft american cheese, this is 1 pt. Some fat free plus milk. I'm guessing I might of used 1/4 cup so that might be 1 pt. So that's 6 pts for the sauce.

Then to add some volume and nutrition to it. I microwaved a bag of chopped brocoli and cauliflower and threw that in with the cheese and noodles. Plus, cause I love onions and garlic. I sprinkled in garlic powder and chopped up an onion and threw that in with the cheese. Next time I do this cook onions first then throw cheese in and make the sauce. Then the noodles and veggies.

This creates like two servings at 6 pts. each. They are pretty heaping plates. Sprinkle with some Parmesan Cheese and it's pretty yummy.

Another slow day at work means I can make some time for a little post here. The long weekend was great. I wish it was longer, but all good things must come to an end. And I end mine with buying myself a new pair of boots and some bras that actually kind of fit. Needless to say, the weekend before I was measure and told I had even smaller boobs than I thought. Okay that's a lie, I figured I was that small, but I was holding on to the illusion that I wasn't.

But that is not what I came here today to right. Onyx and I were just talking while back about how we love mac and cheese, but since we've been on weight watchers we haven't come had any really cause of how bad it is. Well, I think I may of had a break through and I'm going to try my new recipe which I will share it if comes out.

If not I will describe the disaster in detail for your enjoyment pleasure. So in my head this will work. If good it will result in a pretty decent sized serving that will be approximately 5 pts. Not bad if you ask me. No I can't wait to try my new idea. Oh, I wish it was 5, so I could go home and try it. Only one hour and 45 minutes.

Alright so I have a bit of free time, so I thought why not update ya'll on what's happening. Saturday, I reached my goal weight, in fact I lost two more lbs. than my goal weight. I bought my self a cute little outfit to celebrate, but as sad as it sounds I think I may of gained back all the weight I lost last week. I won't say that for sure until I weigh in again on Sat., but It's no looking good the last three days I've weighed myself in the am and I weigh what I did at the previous weeks weigh in which is 5 more lbs. than I weighed on Sat. I'm kind of sad about that.

So that challenge is to not let this get me down and no let this be my excuse to pig out. I must be good. Damn. If I just lost a few more lbs. I wouldn't be so worried. How does one gain like 5 lbs in a day. Freaking bodies are weird. Maybe if I didn't stand on the scale every morning, I wouldn't be so obsesssed. Ugh.

Anyway, it might be the time of the month, that is causing this interesting developement with my weight. Every girl should understand what I'm saying here. Yeah. That could be it. So I'm thinking by Sat. This effect should be gone and I shouldn't have gained weight. That would be nice. Anyhow, I'm going to be doing one of the longer Taebo's tonight. I'm thinking an hour one should be good. Wishing now that I didn't skip my morning Taebo session on Monday, but I can't go back in time and fix that.

Well, I better get back to work. Laters.

I know this is crazy me posting the day after I already posted. What's up with that? Well, I have the time and I actually have something on my mind.

Yesterday, I needed to have some posters done and delievered to me so I could check them and Fedex them to the other office. After a few phone calls and pacing around like mad. The printer let me know that the person didn't deliever them because this particular person didn't think I worked here anymore. I'm like what. She was like yeah, I said yeah she does and that I just talked to you. Yeah of course I do. Anyway, why would that stop the delievery, we are a company and just cause one person is gone doesn't mean the company all of a sudden doesn't need the stuff they freaking ordered.

So things turned out fine. I go the posters at 5 checked them. They looked good, quickly printed out the fedex info and rushed it down to the fedex box. I waited for the guy cause it was too big for the box. He showed at exactly 5:15. It was great. I then went home feeling great. Posters. done and sent. check. Earlier meeting with one of the clients went well. Looks like my design, might be the winner. Which would be fanastic. All in all a good, week, as long as I don't pig out tomorrow I should be good on the weight front too.

Oh yeah and this morning I was mad at Billy, but I forgive him. I know he is just looking out for me, but on the new DVDs I got the 8 mins. workout was so not 8 mins. It was more like 20 mins.. Good thing I started working out about 10 mins early then I normally do. It was a good workout. I was like freak, the other 8 mins one is a lot easier, but maybe that is cause it was actually 8 mins.

I guess it's about that time again for me to post a little something. So this past weekend I bought up a bunch of books about cooking and a couple cook books. Lately I really enjoy cooking. It seems like when home I'm either doing Taebo or cooking. Okay I fit sleeping in there too. I get lots of sleep.

Anyway, I tried one of the new recipes. I kind of messed it up, but it wasn't bad. Probably would of been better had got the recipe right. So I mention to my mom, how now that I'm cooking and exercising and just being healthy that it has taken over my life. I seem to think about it more than my work. I feel almost like I'm negleting my job. I just do what I have to cause I'm too busy thinking about the next thing I might try to cook or doing my newest Taebo video.

She was all like you better like you job. You spent a lot of money on your education so you could get that job. Okay I know and I wasn't saying I don't like my job I do, but it just seems my focus has changed and it is just weird. I wasn't saying I wasn't going to stop doing what I do. I just think that it could be a possiblity someday that I do something that has more to do with food, fitness and stuff. People change careers all the time and I know that can only be done if you have the money and the connections to do it.

So as I ponder the next thing I'll be cooking, yummy buffalo chicken strips, I'll be waiting for the next project that needs to be designed.

So here I am again. Just typing whatever comes to mind. It's amazing to me how little I do and how I have nothing to talk about yet. I don't seem to have much spare time.

Anyway, lately I've been on doing stupid things. Three things to come to mind. Leaving key in door. Losing key. Burning hand on stove. All things which turned out okay, but could of been horrible. So we know someone is watching out for me.

Other than that, I went to dinner with my neighboor. He's really nice, but really weird at the same time. So weird was the whole thing that I don't know what to say, but I think I'll just stay away. I'll be nice and stuff, but he's definitely not for me.

Oh yeah, Saturday I went out dancing. That was fun. But that's when I lost my key. Ended up staying at my friend's place. We had a good time. Had burger and fries for lunch, Sunday before going home. Watched the movie "Art School Confindential." It was hilarious if like that kind of thing. If you went to art school, you would totally relate to this movie.

So I kind of blew it as far as eating goes this week. I was going to be good and try to lose those last couple lbs, but I really don't think I lost any weight this week. Oh well, there is always next week.

Well, I guess it is time to post again. Not much going on. It was great to get out of town for a couple days and see my dad, aunt and cousins. I pigged out like crazy, but as soon as I got back I got right back on track. Okay I waited until tues. to get back on track. Anyway, so far so good. Looks like this might of been a good week, but Sat. weight will determine that. I just have to be good the rest of the day. No big dinner to night, no crazy drinking, noda. Just exercise and eat a bit or veggies or something small early for dinner and that's it. That should make tomorrow a good day.

I guess we have a company lunch I better get going. Laters.
