Losingmore

Yes, the November skies have arrived.  The really dark ones that look like they are full of that four letter word…snow!  Yikes!  This is only the beginning.  I heard that some of the area forecasters are calling for a cold but dry winter, and that would be really fine by me.  Cold I can take.  Snow I can not!  There is supposed to be a warm up ( to the 60’s) this weekend though, and we still have leaf duty and winter storing to do, so I am planning on getting that done….plus, we need to winterize fertilize the lawn before it snows!

Yesterday was a good day!  Got my exercise in, ate within my pts.  Stayed in all day.  It seemed so cold out, I never even went and got the mail from the box.  Today I need to venture out to the grocery store though.

I reworked my ticker on the side, to reflect my WW weigh ins.  About 4 ish pounds to go to get to my 5% loss.

I remade a good pork dish I usually make.  I will post here incase anyone is interested.  It worked out to 5pts for 4 oz of pork and 1/8 of the sauce.

Pork Tenderloin with Mushrooms

Cut approx. 3 # of pork tenderloin into 1 inch pcs and flatten out a bit.  Season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tbs olive oil in a lg nonstick pan and brown the pork on both sides.  ( you may need to do it in two batches) Remove pork from the pan and keep in a warm oven.  ( the pork does not necessarily need to be cooked through at this point, as it will finish cooking in the warm oven and the sauce)  Add 8 oz sliced fresh mushrooms to pan.  Saute for about 5 min.  Add 1/2 cup white wine to pan to deglaze the brown bits.  Let it come to a boil and reduce by about half.  Whisk in one can of Healthy Request Cream of Mushroom soup.  If it is too thick,  loosen it with a bit of water or FF chicken broth.  Let it get bubbly.  Add the pork medallions back in with the juices that have accumulated in the dish that they were in in the oven.  Sprinkle with about a Tbs of fresh chopped parsley.   Serves 8.

It was decadently good.

So I guess I need to get my butt rolling if I want to get some stuff done today.  Make it a great day all!
