Tackling the lbs Visitors bring!

Recently I had some friends come to town lets say I weighed 130lbs (I dont)  but when they left I weighed 137! You say, "how could that happen, they were only here for 4 days?" So I had to kick my butt into gear and get rid of it.  Three weeks later it is gone! Now you might be asking, "how did you do that?"

A ton of work and focus!! That is how you get anything done- duh.

One of the reasons this could have happened was a new yogurt place called Fro Yo and unfortunately, it has also moved to my neighborhood in a very convenient place to my home.  Instead of giving in like the hundreds of people I see walking around with their cute little cups full of goodness I decided to kick my habit and create my own fruity version that will keep my ass looking oh so cute in my new jeans.  While I havent yet created over a dozen flavors and toppings that Fro Yo carries I promise this is just as good and even a bit rewarding. 


Greek Yogurt Smoothie #1
1 cup Greek yogurt  (lots of protein and good fat)
2 tablespoons heavy cream (makes it rich)
1/4 cup orange seltzer water (liquid so your blender doesn't get mad)
1 cup frozen berries of your choice (use less if you are really watching your carbs, they can add up)
2 packets of Splenda, Just like Sugar, or Fiberfit

-Throw it all together. Blend. Eat.

This is my favorite at the moment when you want something a bit more sinful...yum!

Greek Yogurt Smoothie #2   
1 cup Greek yogurt  (lots of protein and good fat)
2 tablespoons heavy cream (makes it rich)
3 tablespoons of cup cherry seltzer water (liquid so your blender doesn't get mad)
1 cup frozen cherries
2 heavy sprinkles of cinnamon (more or less to your taste)
2 packets of Splenda, Just like Sugar, or Fiberfit

-Throw it all together. Blend. Eat

Save Fro Yo for when you want a really great cheat!

Now I am off to NC, the hardest place in the world to stay on track......
