Hey Ms. Shell!!!  Hope you had a great weekend.  I've definitely been challenged this holiday season.  I am just trying to make the best choices I can while keeping things in the back of my mind that the new year is fast approaching.  I will be setting some new goals very soon.

B: Low carb breakfast wrap

S: coffee maybe (I need to stay away from the See's Candies!)

L: baked chicken that I brought from home

S: Quest Craving Peanut Butter Cup

D: tamales (yes, I need to be honest!)

Water: 3 cups so far

Vits: on track

Exercise: running around doing last minute shopping, ugh!  It's gonna be a crazy day!!!

Christmas Tamales!!!! Nothing better! Okay, red or green or mole????? Me, I'm a green or mole guy.

I power shopped yesterday. Did all my shopping in one fell swoop! Left the house early to get parking and shopped for basically 7 hours. IN. THE. RAIN. LOL! Had a blast actually.

See's candy is the devil! 210 calories for 3 little pieces. SUCKS! Be strong....... Merry Christmas, Jenn!

OMG ... every type of tamale will be made under the sun but wait, I don't think I have every tried mole tamales.  I must be missing out!!!

I love the pork ones that are being made today because they are very saucy & generous with the meat.  I cannot stand dry tamales with too much masa.  I might as well skip them completely!  Usually I prefer the green chile cheese ones since I'm a cheese freak.  There will also be chicken & sweet ones too but those don't usually tempt me.  I will be fine with one pork & one green chile cheese (that I will not eat all at once but it will be a long night) and then I can call it a day.  Tamales are those kinds of foods that I can get my fill on just once a year and move on.  No bringing home leftovers for me!!!

I also did all my X'mas shopping the past 2 days.  Yeah, it was fun though.  This has been a hectic year.  It took me forever to get into the holiday spirit but I will be in a better place next year. 

I will do my best to be strong.  I wanna feel fairly proud of myself.  So far I have been doing pretty decent.  I can still fit into my jeans just fine, yay!!!

Hope you & your family have a safe & happy holiday.  Love ya Devon & Merry Christmas!!!

Okay, the mole tamales were like this - shredded chicken and pork with pablano and chipolte with mole sauce mixed in. Then after they were steamed covered in a rich mole and cheese. TO.DIE. FOR!!!!!!!

Merry, merry to you, Jenn!!! Mwah!

Holy Moley (hee hee!)!!!!!!  Those sound delish!!!!!  Mole & cheese???  OMG, the best of both freaking worlds!!!!

MUAH!!!!

I freaking love Tamales. I have been to Mexico twice this year and couldn't find them once. I grew up in a town filled with migrant Mexican workers and I got to eat them a lot. Its been over 30 years since I had a real tamale. I freaking want one.

Awe, wish you could taste my family's.  They are the best!!

what is a low carb breakfast wrap... I cant get any of the good stuff you guys are always talking about since out choices are so limited here.... nice weather tho...

Hi there!  It was just breakfast wrap with low carb tortilla.  My dept. brought in breakfast items like scrambled eggs, shredded cheese, sausage crumbles.  I just made it myself!!!
