Guest Post by Brandi from DietsInReview.com
Uncategorized (1)
I'm in New York for the weekend but here's a guest post from Brandi Koskie, the senior editor at DietsInReview.com, a diet review and healthy living resource online. The more than 540 reviews of diet and weight loss programs and products can help you find the right approach for you, the daily Diet Blog provides fitness and nutritional tips, interviews and current trends, and you'll find free healthy recipes that suit a low-carb, diabetic, Weight Watchers or vegetarian lifestyle. I’m always on the lookout for something new and interesting at the grocery store that has some nutritional value and offers a ...

I need the frequent shopper discount
Uncategorized (0)
I was 143.5 this morning so 1.5 down from yesterday. I'm almost out of quiche and thankfully I just ate the last of "America's Favorite Pork Chops" (NOT!) which means another stop at the grocery store to restock everything. I swear I go there every day! I think I'm going to do pork chops again because I've been having chicken for dinner (in my soup). I'm actually realllllly sick of chicken in general. Which doesn't leave me a ton of options since I don't really eat beef and half (like Easter-style ham) tends to bloat me. So maybe by the ...

America’s Favorite Pork Chops…I think not!
Uncategorized (2)
I just made a recipe that was called America's Favorite Pork Chops. It's simply an Italian dressing and worchestershire marinade and then you were supposed to grill the pork chops (but I just did them in the pan). They were just eh. Maybe grilled they would have been better, but I think it was actually the marinade I was a fan of. They're ok enough to eat during the week so I'm stuck with them for lunch for the next 2 days or so. I made a great quiche this morning with artichokes and cheddar cheese. I've got one recipe left ...

I finally got eatingwithamy.com set up the way I want it! It's anything and everything food-related: product reviews, gadgets, food news, etc. I'll have recipes up there too (but not all will be low carb so eat with caution LOL). Anyways, take a peek!

Finally Back Online!
Uncategorized (1)
After almost 4 days without power and almost 5 days with no TV or internet, I'm back online! What a doozy of a storm! It actually didn't bother me as much as I thought it would. I read some books I hadn't read before and reread some I had. I found some of my old stories and writings that I had started and never finished. I reviewed the recipes I had started for cookbook 2. I feel pretty productive. My neighbor chopped up the fallen trees into smaller pieces. I had to completely throw out everything in my fridge so I'm ...

Birthday Challenge - Day 1
Birthday Challenge, Uncategorized (3)
I'm not sure if I should call this the official day 1 of my birthday challenge. I didn't have any food at home so I ate out for breakfast and got a salad bar for lunch. Dinner was awesome! I did a stir-fry and topped it off with this sauce I found at the grocery store. It's called Makoto Vegetable Sauce (it also says White Sauce on the bottle). It tastes sort of like the pale orange sauce you get at japanese steakhouses. So yummy! It wasn't too bad in the carb department - only 1g per 2 tablespoons. It ...

If you can read this…

You probably aren't having problems, but if you know someone who has Suddenlink and couldn't access the web site at all (even just the main home page), it's because Suddenlink marked my site as porn! I think the problem is fixed - one of my members who has Suddenlink called because only my web site was blocked to them and she found out that my site had been marked as porn on their servers. She was able to get it unblocked. Another member emailed me about the same problem today but now they are able to access my site, so ...

Amy’s 10 Day Challenge - Day 8
10 Day Challenge, Uncategorized (2)
The good news: I'm 138. The bad news: I'm completely hungover. Let's just say 4 (or was it 5?) caipirinhas is a REALLY bad idea (especially when all you've add for dinner is trout and cauliflower mash). Low carb and free drinks do not work well together! My sister and I met a very nice couple at the bar but they kept buying us drinks! I had a ton of fun with my sis, but I totally overdid it so I attribute my stunning LOL 1.5 drop from yesterday to being massively pukey last night and totally dehydrated this morning. ...

Amy’s 10 Day Challenge - Day 3
10 Day Challenge, Uncategorized (0)
I woke up another .5 lb down - horay! I think this challenge isn't so much about the actual losing weight part but more proving to myself that if I actually make the effort, I CAN get back down to where I want to be. I have been half-assing it for too long, mainly because I wasn't unhappy with my weight and I've been pretty happy in maintenance. Honestly, in clothes I look almost the same at 140 as I do at 133 so it's just a numbers game. But, I always said 140 was my oh-crap weight and when I ...

Happy New Year!
Uncategorized (1)
Happy New Year everyone! The start of a new year is always a chance to make a new start. Let this be the year you accomplish whatever it is you set out to achieve! I said this in my journal on the forum, but I'll repeat it here. Instead of making resolutions this year, I'm making "I'm going to..." because resolutions are just a way of saying "I'm going to try to..." while "I'm going to..." means it is something that will get done! One of my "going to's" is that I am going to post in my blog ...
