mmm shrimp! what a great food. peeled and deviened. grilled with some seasoning is good with a side of brown rice or veggies.

I also like to take this shrimp cut it up with diced jalapenos and onions and add some V-8 plain or spicy and have a shrimp cocktail. The bad thing with this is I can eat it up with lots of chips... so maybe a low fat whole grain cracker instead?

I stepped on the scale this morning. well my morning/afternoon and I've reached my 10 lbs lost goal that I made for myself a couple months ago for the end of this year. I know it has to do with all the working I've been doing and walking, moving about. I've been pretty active and eating ok. I still am not limiting what I eat, just checking the ingredients, calories and making better choices and remembering portions. we'll see if it stays that way through the holidays. I'll try hard!

Tis the season to eat! All kinds of yummy delicious food is among us. There are recipes to cut out the calories and fat and sugar so check into that and also pace yourselves and remember portion control. Enjoy your Thanksgiving folks!
