Tracy

Hey Tracy!! I left a comment in your journal. I hope you won't mind. :) I've never had a frozen grape. I'm almost scared to try them.. do they turn to mush or are they like popsicles?? I still haven't tried the popcorn. I need to wait until someone is here to eat it with me. Otherwise, I'll eat the whole fattening bag of it!!! hehe :D

I know popcorn has a lot of fiber, but it also has a lot of calories, unless you pop it fresh without butter in the corn popper. I have to buy the microwave kind. :p

Have a fabulous day!

Hey Happy!!

I will go check my journal..i need to vent!!

The grapes are crunky and sweet or tart depending on what kind. You eat them right away so no mush..but they are really cold so they are perfect on a hot July day!!

IS that apple one microwave??i do not believe i have made regular popcorn since microwave came out!!:lol: I bet..reg. is really good. Oh no..thank goodness i have no reg. I share my bag with my kids becasue i sure could eat a whole bag no prblems so i hear ya!!
I need some chicken ideas...any good low fat chicken breast ideas??

Hope to chat wiht all of you soon!!

emma :wave:

Hey Y'all!!
 

Yes, the apple popcorn is microwave. It's GOOOOD, too! I ate about 4 or 5 cups yesterday. :rolleyes: It's 40 calories a cup.
There's also a "Sweet 'n Buttery" popcorn made by Orville Rechenbacher that is really good too. It taste almost like caramel corn and it's 45 calories a cup. I can eat my weight in it :tape:

I make chicken probably different from most people. I usually fry chicken for my husband. I'll usually bake mine. I put Italian salad dressing, honey and mustard, B-B-Q Sauce, or those little packets of dressing on it. You know the Hidden Valley Ranch dressing in the little packets??? All of those are fat free. There's also a oven baked fried chicken. It's low-cal. You roll it in pancake mix. (Like Bisquick). Chicken salads are also really good for you.
That's about all I can think of right now.

Welshbird, CONGRATS! on your weight loss. :hat: You've been working harder than me, because I haven't lost a pounds in probably 2 months. :stress: How'd you do it?????

Hey ladies!!!!


WHOHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE on that weight loss!! I bet your new dress is gona look sooooooooooooo good on you!!! Yep..it will be a great weekend for you emma!! And you deserve it!! I hope you have a wonderful time!!!

Thankd you so much for the chcikent ideas. I have never put the dry packets of hidden valley on so i will try it!! Also when you microwave the orville caramel (my FAV!!) does it coat all of it??How does that work?? I love caramel corn!! oh man!!! I did the italian for the first time..and it was good!!

All for now...got to finish my uniforms for my kids!!

Have a great day!!!

Tracy

I think she's going to look really great, too!!
You're certainly welcome for the chicken ideas. I love fried chicken, but I'm beginning to like it different ways now. Don't use too much of the Hidden Valley because it makes it kinda "pasty" tasting.. just a few sprinkles should do it. I really like the Italian dressing on it too.. kinda like a marinade that you cook it in. There's a lot of things on the ketchup/mustard/b-b-q sauce/steak sauce aisle in the grocery store that would be good on chicken, I think.... Of course, when it comes to food I can eat practically anything and love every minute of it.. :D

I'm not sure about the caramel corn. I've had the apple/cinnamon and the sweet 'n buttery. The sweet n' buttery tastes A LOT like caramel to me. It's some of the best popcorn ever. If a lot of people aren't around I will eat the whole bag no matter how much self control I've gained over the past few months. hehe :)

howdyyy!!

Ok my next grocery trip is not till sunday..how will i last. All i could think about yesterday was that popcorn!!!

I have tried A-1 new steadk marinade and loved it. I wonder if it would do ok on chicken??

Again major thank yous for the ideas!!! My dinners have been blah!!lol

Tarcy

Well, when you get some be sure there's someone there to eat it with you. :D You might wind up eating the whole bag, like me!! :o
Okay..now I'm sorta craving it so I better shut up. :lol:

OK..i am running for the pickles..lol


garlic ones..now NO ONE will want to be around me!!:D

Re: Hey All
 

Ohh, yea, I tried the Cola cake. It really was good.. and moist! I thought it was better than the original because it was a little healthier for me. Which makes anything better, in my opinion. :)
I LOVE cake!!
Aren't kids a joy!! They are a lot of work, but it's totally worth it. I also have a really hard time when there's junk food in the house. I don't have AOL but I use ICQ. I don't get in the chat.. there's never anyone there. :?:

--I know what you mean about not losing ANY weight. Even though you're trying. I haven't lost in 2 months! :( It's SO disappointing. Please don't give up. I love talking to you on this forum. Don't leave me here all alone. ;) Don't be frustrated, it happens.

hiya happyhousewife.

it is frustrating when you dont lose, isnt it?!! i didnt lose any weight for 2 months either but her i am starting to lose it again. they actually say that its good for your body to have a break in weight loss cos its more likely to stay off. i know thats no consellation but its true. so just think once you do start losing again, it more than likely will stay off, for good! im not about to give up on what i have achieved so far, and i hop that your not either. keep it goin, youll start to see the results before long. its so hard too lose the weight but sooo easy to put the weight back on!!!!!!! its one **** ofa vicious circle but youve got to keep strong otherwise we'll be doin it all over again. i really dont fancy doin that! do you?!!

know what you mean about the chat!! i often go in but theres never ne1 in there either. nevermind, we may get to chat someday. speak to you all soon

emma

HEYOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

I am sorry about the pants..but honestly..they are all different sizes!! Every designer has a different size depending on whom is their target buyer is. Some make theri stuff too big (and we know those..because i have a closet full) some target only skinny teenage girls..so have heart..Emma..it might just have been the couple things you tried on!!


Happy how are things for you?? what has been going on?? M mother sent me a HUGE box of omaha stuff..lol. ok..how can you make filet mignon bacon rapped..um..diet??lol This stuff is so good..you do not need ANYTHING on it..and it cuts like butter!!

Thanks MUM!!!

Have a great day...
