OOO enchiladas. Been thinking about making some w/ low carb tortilla shells. What's not to love. Saucy, cheesy, meaty! lol0
-
I don't think I've ever eaten enchiladas. I don't like soggy bread stuffs so in my mind I think the sauce would make the tortilla too soggy so I stay away from them.0

@volgirl1322 I'm not a gingerbread fan either!!! if offered straight up gingerbread, I'd pass even if I'm hungry LMAO - but THIS....this is so good HE IS SO BIG!!!! My widdle baby is giant!
@LiLee2018 I bet that'd be AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGG - and a nice change of pace! Low carb can get a little monotonous for me LOL
@LadyBlanks They don't really get soggy in the way like sandwich bread would get soggy if you didn't eat it right away (which I also hate, BLECH) - if you're SUPER worried about it you can always use corn tortillas which are SUPER sturdy and you'd have to TRY to sog out LOL0 -
A delicious weekend feast.. yummo🤤🤤🤤 Never had enchiladas but I heard its yummy yum yum. 👍 OmQg, 25 cents per dish... Will never find it here😲☹️ Is the basket a new sleeping hideout for Bubs?0
-
LMAO JP - it's his TOYBOX but he takes all the toys out systematically to play with later and then plays IN the toy box LMAO0
-
Ah... I see😅 My cousin has a chihuahua and she a basket where she goes in to take a rest☺️0
-
LMAO, he used to perch in there for hours but now that he's filling out, he doesn't really fit in that one - there's a bigger one on the other side of the living room he still lays in In fact, I had to get a new carrier for him while I was at Mama's because the old one was getting too small...he could barely lay down, so we got a new one
I ate GREAT at Mama's!!! Again, she's on low carb so LOTS of good stuff!!! I had Reubens and antipasto salad both nights - Mama actually made gyros but dad came home from TX and didn't realize that I eat super late so he ate all the chicken before I was even THINKING about eating Mama cracked up and offered to make more but I just redid my dinner from the night before because it was so good Here's a pic to give ya an idea:
I had dessert both days too BUT I'm fasting today - so 2 full 48 hour fasts should at LEAST balance out my non-compliance so any holiday gains are minimal - and it's a doable plan so that's what I'm sticking to
Back home now til Monday when I head back for the holiday Had some more righteous couponing yest! 4 camisoles, 4 bags of cat treats, 2 electric toothbrushes, a bag of tide pods, a bottle of excedrin, crest whitestrips, 2 country crock tubs, and a full sized nivea lotion all for about $30 bucks out of pocket and I'll get like $10 delayed cash back too I'm having so much fun w this new hobby! Cooking, couponing, and Bubs - I've accepted that these are my "hobbies"
BOTD:
1 -
Bubs is so cute...sleepy head You food looks amazing! Good luck with your fast0
-
My sister in law used to do extreme couponing and she ended up with so much stuff
Awe Kitty0 -
Yeah Brenda, I don't get that hardcore LMAO - i use the KKL app and it does all the work for me, I just get 1 Sunday paper, use the digitals and printables, and match up whatever's free/makes me money or I actually NEED It's a lot of fun!! AND who doesn't love getting free stuff or saving money
Fast went GREAT - 2 full 48 hours fasts this week, but AF showing up means that I'm super bloated so the # on the scale is useless - I still weigh every day I just know it's not accurate. I ate over TDEE Tues and Weds and last night so hopefully the 3500-4000 cals I saved in fasting made up for it
YESTERDAY morning I got a text from my best friend that her BP was too high and they were INDUCING HER LABOR!!! She's 37 weeks so totally safe, and they JUST gave her pitocin so I'm waiting on the call to show up to see my new nephew!!!! SO EXCITED!!!
Last night I decided on Qdoba deconstructed nachos Also had some shortbread cookies w coffee about an hour or two before dinner, and finished up with this new off-brand halo top - I think it's Kroger's brand Simply Truth Low Cow? It was AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGG - BETTER than Halo Top!!! Which is incredible!!! AND they were 2/$5 and I normally pay $4 a piece for them! Kroger is my new ice cream stop apparently
Bubs freaked me out yesterday too!!! He was scooting his butt on the floor which usually means he got a turd stuck in his tail hair, and sure enough...so I went to remove it and there was a string attached that was still in his butt!!! I pulled a lil and he didn't like it but it started to come out easily. Either way, I FREAKED out and called the vet and they said to gently pull it out unless I feel resistance, but when I got off the phone and went to go remove it, he'd pooped it out Anyway, outside of that he was SUPER cuddly the last few days - here's lots of BOTD
So now just waiting on the call for BABY! ALSO found out my local place will be up for recreational sales by the 1st of the year for ma meds/enjoyment so only 1 more darn trip to Ann Arbor LOL
Have a great weekend kids!!

SPEAKING OF WHICH!!! My nephew finally came yesterday!!! Going to meet him today!!! Super excited1 -
A baby boy Congrats!!!0
-
Congratulations Auntie Steph!
Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year to you and your family0 -
Hi Guys! Things have been crazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzy!!! The baby is ok, but they had to go back to the hospital because he was getting jaudiced and he was having trouble regulating his own blood sugar = hopefully they can come home today
I've eaten everything in sight for weeks! LMAO - I'm at 161 ish this morning - I think as I'm losing back into maintenance I'll go straight OMAD, maybe with a little full fasting thrown in - that seems totes doable for nowwwwww
I've been getting REAL hardcore with the couponing and coup groups yesterday I found a Keurig on walmart's app for 21 bucks!!! I had to go to a second walmart bc my first one was being a PIA but the 2nd one let me be great and buy 2 (that was all they had, or rest assured I'd have bought more)!!!! So I'll keep one and ebay the other for like 40 bucks to pay for my own and give someone else a great deal!!! Pic below It's a real fun hobby! AND saves me a ton of money!!!
Here's a catch up montage of BOTD:
Christmas Silliness:
Mama's so cool with her coups
All I do is nap nap nap no matter what (and WIN )
Don't clean my eyes mama! It makes me look like a pirate!
I'll catch up throughout the day loves!!!1 -
My first 2 babies had jaundice. They had to wear this light pack all day and night until it cleared up.
And congrats on scoring the keurigs!0 -
@LiLee2018 yes he's better now!!! Hopefully they get to come home today!!!
Happy Tuesday OMAD squad!!! Back on the wagon as of yesterday (minus a non fat peppermint mocha WHOOPS! I had a gift card, I couldn't resist LOL). Today will start TRUE OMAD though Maybe a fast thrown in now and again but otherwise straight OMAD til we're back down to 150ish on the regular I haven't actually done REAL traditional OMAD in a LONG time!!! LOL
Yesterday was cals ~ 1600 so not a huge deficit, although the coupon/clearance searching is at least getting me up and moving a little bit throughout the day! Had a salad with leftover ham (gotta use it somehow!), the mocha, a low cow ice cream, and a few pieces of candy.
Getting back into full time work mode, which is nice - I do love me a routine. My rep at my main lender branched off to join the broker world so I got to pick a new one (and by GOT I mean called every AVP I know from there until I got the one I wanted) so I'm stoked about that!!! Ready to hit the ground running in 2020
BOTD:
Mama, you can coupon 1-handed right?!!? Good, then HOLD MEEEEEEEEEEEE
Have a great day guys! I'll post my weight today when I get my a** to the shower LOL1 -
Hi Guys!!! Happy Friday!!!
Weight yest was down to 158.5 - I forgot how long it feels like it takes when you straight OMAD vs. all the big fasts!!! Oh well, it's a good exercise in my patience
The pace I'm trending at right now averaging 1000-1500 cals a day should have me losing a pound a week or so - aiming for 140's by end of Feb It'll probs be much sooner but we'll see!!!
I'm really getting obsessed with the couponing!!! It's so much fun, and saves me a ton of money (sometimes/eventually it'll actual MAKE me money when I start selling bundles )
Anyway, nothing fun to report over here! Just straight up OMAD! Been focusing on protein and veggies for main and then my normal desserty treats SPEAKING OF DESSERT!!! My Nightfood Ice Cream from Meijer was on sale for 2.99 and Ibotta is pretty consistently paying me back $2 a piece so I'm paying $0.99 Saving money AND eating healthy!!! So I got 4 transactions of 2 so I can make all $16 back
Dinner last night - pork tenderloin lettuce tacos:
BOTD - Bubs s couponing!!! I can't seem to take a picture for my sites without him inserting himself into the picture
PSA - pics below retail for $75+ - with my Ibotta cash back and price matching and coups, I paid $3.75 (75 cent was the dish soap, my coup didn't work...the other $3 was the cost after coups for the nuts)
ALSO the parentals made it down to TX for the Spring - this is them at their NEW YEARS PARTY
Onward and upward kids!!!

Oh hey y'all!!! Still here!!
Was at 157.7 this morning so still steady!!! I should be losing like half a pound a day down to like 153...after that it'll slow down and I'll probably hafta throw fasts in (I'm just speaking from my personal experience with my own body LOL)
ANYWAY I've been super busy for a couple reasons - yesterday I went over to go to my NEW NEPHEWs premie appt with Emmy Then spent the day with them spending some quality time which was really nice
ALSO, I'm bringing on another client in mtgs AND thinking about starting up a small income stream from this couponing thing LMAO - it's so fun and I'm doing it anyway *shrug*
