No Carb No Gain

Holla! Kristie P here :) So, I fell off the healthy bandwagon thanks to the family fun weekend at our lake house and fast food drive thrus (damn you Wendy's fries!!!). We drove back on Monday so that was a bad day, proceeded to have Chinese food for lunch and friend chicken for dinner. Heart attack...party of 1??

sooo....I'm pulling myself up by my bootstraps and have prescribed myself a strict no carb diet--Gisele Noel style. I'm not doing it for poundage lost, more to help "cleanse" myself and get my wacky carb cravings back in check. Wednesday and Thursday were great days and I've become super creative with my carb-less snacks! AND both days I was under my 1400 calorie target without even adding exercise in!

Green tea and an apple for Breakfast--120 calories

Bigasssalad with Taco Bell sauce to taste like the real thing!--200 calories

Baby carrots and the Laughing cow cheese--55 calories!

Healthy chicken salad--210 calories

The Healthy Chicken Salad was inspired by the recipe I found on Pinterest. I used leftover chicken from chicken fajitas and added some spicy garlic hot sauce to "give it a little kick!" a la Emeril. Those crockpot fajitas gave me 3 meals: Chicken fajitas, bigasssalad and healthy chicken salad---how's that for some creativity??

Just as I was feeling down on myself for my crazy binge fest, I looked at my license

Yup, that was me in May of 2011. My weight says 150 but I'm pretty sure I was tipping 180 at that point. I don't get to renew until 2015 BUT that gives me 2 more years to get my weight down to 125 so I can change it for good on that useless piece of plastic ID.

Have a great weekend! I'm off to check out all the great giveaways going on out there!!
