bekki1 · 02-22-2009, 05:21 PM

I was thinking something with turkey chunks, cheese, green chilis(or green enchilada sauce) onions and cilantro. What do you think? Or should I start slow? Making it tomorrow I hope or Tuesday.

iabowhunter · 02-22-2009, 05:31 PM

That is the beauty of building a fattie! You can put anything in it that you wish and make it your own. The one you described sounds pretty tasty! I wouldn't mind tring that one. I think the green enchilada sauce onions and cilantro will really set the whole thing off with flavor. I'll want to hear how it turns out for you.

monet0329 · 02-22-2009, 06:06 PM

Well heck.. I should have just came here first..

you got it too huh? it suxs..been feeling light headed since last weds..got very sick weds night..still not right...lol..thanks for the advice on the more fat intake...seems to be working..

Livywilltim-mom · 02-23-2009, 09:07 AM

Sweet Bekki,

I am sooooo sorry your weekend was a blow out...and now you are sick??? I am a firm believer in the Zicam that you spray into your mouth and throat...really shortens the duration of a virus.

The fattie sounds delish! I have to make one of those!

Consider your butt kicked

Hugs

bekki1 · 02-23-2009, 09:00 PM

Thanks Jamie, I burned 420 calories on Jillian Michaels Wii training. Did 40 minutes. Tomorrow I will do at least the same. After I was done I started thinking about how many calories I consume in a day. Dang!!! I am afraid to figure it out.

I have the crud that is going around. Not to hungry nor thirsty.

I am hitting the hay in a few minutes. the vaporizor will be my buddy again tonight and I guess Vix.

monet0329 · 02-24-2009, 07:43 AM

Good morning Bekki.. I hope your better this am..

No.. I never got around to making the fattie.

.. maybe one night this week.. we'll see..

Get well my friend..

bekki1 · 02-24-2009, 09:05 AM

I bought the new Jillian Michaels Wii fit game. It is hard to figure out what to do to make my girl actually work out.

Feeling a little bit better today. Did not eat much yesterday and afraid to weigh since I know its from being under the weather.

Stomached tuna salad and some mayo and turkey yesterday. About 4 cups of tea too.

speedymagee · 02-24-2009, 12:53 PM

Get better soon!

If you are sick you are sick, don't worry too much about food.

I have been using Fitday on and off for the past week to see how my cals/carb/protein/fat ratios are. EEEK!

Anyhow they have improved it lots in the last couple of years and it's pretty easy to use and most important...it's free! I don't use it daily because of time and also I am easily distracted, but you might like to give it a try.

Livywilltim-mom · 02-24-2009, 02:33 PM

Aw Bekki,

So sorry you weren't able to skip the cruddy virus! It sounds like you are taking care of yourself though...don't try to do too much working out...maybe just a little something.

Rest. Be kind to yourself!

Hugs

bekki1 · 02-24-2009, 06:07 PM

I can not believe I wasted $40 on Jillian Michales game for the Wii Fit. It skips or freezes. I think I am going to take it back or maybe sell it on ebay. I hear all the games from her do the same. very disappointed. Plus it is mostly running, I wanted more but could not find a place to rent it before I bought it.

I ate turkey chunks dipped in mayo today for lunch, hot tea and not sure what to make for dinner. I think I will look up a recipe on Linda Sues recipe Site for turkey.

Worked out for a lousy 20 minutes and burned 250 calories. that was ok I guess. Wish it was more but at least it was something.

bekki1 · 02-24-2009, 07:17 PM

For dinner I made Linda Sues "Green "Enchilada" Chicken Casserole". Although I did not have green salsa I use cilantro salsa and I mixed pepperjack with the montery jack. Smelled and tasted wonderful. Wanted to put a dollop of sour cream on top but was out. Maybe next time.
I got 15 cups of broth out of the turkey bones I boiled. Bagged the broth and froze in 5 cup increments for later use. Turkey broth gets used alot in my house, this was almost free, so why not boil them bones?
Dinner was amazing if I can say so again, can I?

Would be great as a filling in LC tortillas with lettuce and avocado and sour cream!!! Maybe next time?
I need to use up the rest of the turkey so I will look tonight for more recipes. I do not want to freeze it as I will forget and then it is a waste. Any ideas friends?

I want to try to use up the majority of food in the cupboards, freezer and fridge. I think I can go 2 or 3 weeks with the exceptions of HWC and eggs. I may be asking for recipes once my stock gets thin. I am a food junkie and buy on impulse and have alot to use up. I get that from my mom I think. Gotta love mom.

Heck if there is an earthquake you can all come here and I can fed you for awhile. I want to clear out my non LC food and feed my son, told him he was in for an adventure and what my plan was. He just

. Gotta

him too.

monet0329 · 02-24-2009, 07:50 PM

Your dinner sounds good.. but spicy.. I don't do spicy..

.. my hubs does though..lol..well my boys do as well.. so if they want spice.. they add it themselves..

..

I bet I could go a couple of weeks of no heavy grocery shoppin like you..lol..I told dh last week that I was sending him.. so he would just get the basics.. milk.. eggs.. creamer..bread and be done.. but no.. I went and spent another 100..

.. I just see a sale and stock up..

.. he says I don't save money that way.. cause I just buy more..

.. but I do in the long run.. and when I do have him go to the store.. I will say.. now see how much I saved THIS week..

.. yeah.. I'ma dork

..

have sweet dreams..
