Evillaugh I got snarked at yesterday when I suggested that my nephew who puked on BT was the reason behind BT's vomiting overnight the next night. "It's just an ear infection. It's not related at all."

Yeah. Same nephew puked again at 4 this morning and his sister puked around 9 this morning. My mom is green around the gills and in bed at 7:30pm with body aches, nausea and weakness.

Completely unrelated, I'm sure.

Stopped by the store on the way home from Zumba to get 2 big tubs of Clorox wipes. I've got a TON of cleaning to do.

I am. I went and spent a couple hours at the hospital with her after I got off work and she's talking and responding pretty okay. She was at the doctors office when it happened so I think that helped a lot with the response. She has an MRI and some other tests in the morning.

I'm sorry to hear that hug

One of the ladies I play trivia with..she had a stroke a few years ago. Then about a week ago she had the same symptoms of a stroke (slurred speech, paralysis, etc). Anyway her fiance rushed her to the hospital and they said it wasn't a stroke but something that had the same symptoms of a stroke. They kept her for a couple days and then she went home and she seems fine now. I don't really know what that is, I didn't know there were stroke like non-strokes.

I hope your grandma has a quick recovery with few lasting effects hug

And yeah, being a grown up sucks big time sometimes. This past week or so I've realized that curling up in a fetal position doesn't equate not being a grown up. Damn it, lol.

So for the past few weeks I've been switching up my diet some. I made

this [skinnytaste.com]

this [theskinnyconfidential.com] (which was actually VERY good and I thought I hated cauliflower, lol)

this [thetastefullife.com] I'm not kidding guys...I thought this was so extremely amazing and only took like five minutes to make.

this [skinnytaste.com] peanut butter pie is my faaaaaaaaaaaavorite pie

this [skinnytaste.com] I didn't put the chocolate shavings on top though because I didn't want to

this [skinnytaste.com]

this [skinnytaste.com] I put cous cous in it and I think I'll leave that out next time

and some other stuff like the mexican taco dip and rotini with marinara and fat free regatta cheese and Parmesan. I even made Kale chips for the first time, and while it's not the same as say Pringles, lol they were actually pretty good and very crunchy. I liked them.

So I was worried after eating this stuff the scale was gonna go back up cause it was all really good.

Anyway even with all those pies and cakes and pasta and stuff I lost four pounds last week! I'm getting such a kick out of this. I've been using things like brown rice pasta instead of regular/wheat pasta, switching stuff to healthier versions of stuff I normally like. Like the mashed cauliflower wasn't a dead ringer for mashed potatoes but it was close enough that I wouldn't have any issue substituting that most of the time.

When I first decided to diet I was toying with different places, Weight Watchers, Atkins, etc. Then I thought I couldn't count point for everything like with Weight Watchers, not for the rest of my life. I couldn't get rid of most breads, potatoes, etc like with Atkins, not for the rest of my life. So I kind of started my own thing and now I'm eating stuff like peanut butter pie and sausage pasta or whatever and I'm still losing weight cause of tweeking the recipes. Well that and I don't eat the whole peanut butter pie or fill my plate to the brim with food, lol. I really like this and I actually enjoy the food more than I did when I wasn't dieting, lol.

That said, Saturday is my cheat day and I'll eat the fark outta heath bars, pizza and cheeseburgers or whatever that day laugh out loud

Btw...the pineapple angel food cake I would TOTALLY recommend. I even texted Bertha because I couldn't contain my excitement about how good it was laugh out loud

And in case anyone cares what the food looks like laugh out loud

1.) Pineapple Angel food cake
2.) The cheesy jalapeno bacon chicken and mashed cauliflower
3.) Peanut Butter Pie
4.) Turkey Sausage and wilted spinach and peppers pasta (That's in the pan, that's not my plate all filled up like that, lol).
5.) I forget exactly what this was. It was good though. Chicken and some kind of pasta.
6.) Tortilla crusted Tilapia over brown rice bowtie pasta with olive oil, peppers, broccoli and Parmesan
7.) Banana cream pie
