Well, only got a bit of baking done. I'm still trying to find "legal" recipes or change my faves to legal.
Now, someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure I've seen banana bread listed with a moderate GI. I have a great banana bread recipe and thought I'd make a bunch of them to give. I experimented yesterday and made them with ALL whole wheat flour (the recipe calls for white flour) and cut the sugar in half. They turned out really good. I'm going to try replacing the sugar with unsweetened apple sauce. I would think these changes would lower the GI a bit too.
I want to try MELF's recipe for Cranberry Nut muffins. They sound yummy. I'll have to keep scouring the recipe boards for more great stuff.
I DID eat way too much of my baking yesterday. I got all bloated and felt gross. But today is back OP and lots of water!
DEBELLI--I agree with GRACIOUS that we can think about Christmas cause we're finished with Thanksgiving. Also, the Christmas brainwashing starts before Halloween with TV ads and Christmas stuff in the stores The swimming--it's Ladies only. The bathing suit does show my rolls, but I don't care. Some women just wear leggings and t-shirts! HOORAY for your breakthru! You ate too much and/or off plan, but that's in the past and you went right back OP. That's the way to do it!
GRACIOUS--Saw all the snow you got on the news last night. Holy Cow! Is it still cold enough for it to stay? Supposed to be beautiful here! Around 16C/60F Hope you fell better soon.
DENISE--Glad you're feeling better.
MUSIC--Sorry to hear about your friends' house, but how wonderful they have such a great community to help them out. And then your car! Oh my gosh--are the kids ok? Pretty scary stuff. Glad she's got to pay for the damage.
JACKK--Have a GREAT holiday. Enjoy every minute!
TONI--You have a GREAT visit with your brother!
Gotta go. Sorry I didn't get to everyone. I have a feeling I'm missing someone else who is going away(GATOR??). Have a good trip too!
Bye for now!
