Tuesday - BOTT Cardio & Cafe

It feels SO GOOD to reach a goal!!!!!  

I think one thing I've learned is tha as much as I hate lessons in patience - I need to have a goal to keep me focused on what I need to be doing.  Somehow, it adds a little excitement to my life (as you can see, it takes so little to excite me LOL)  Right now my goal is to meke it uniil Saurday without gaining even though I will be eating out everday day between now and then.

But, the most exciting thing is my cosmetic surgery consultation tomorrow.  I'm pogo stick excited about that!!!!!!

Good Morning everyone. Happy, I am so "happy" for you, what a wonderful accomplishment to reach your goal weight! Yesterday was a good day, my Denver Broncos remain undefeated after last nights game. My husband & I had agreed to take custody of my friends son two weeks ago while she went to rehab. Well, we finally got her into a facility yesterday and I believe it is day one of her getting well and re-establishing her relationship with her son.

Calories were a bit high today so I will skip the after dinner snack if I am full from dinner. Hope eveyone has a fantastic day!

Caramel apple oatmeal?? How are you making it! It sounds perfect for this time of year!

1 packet Cinnamon Weight Control Oatmeal
1/4 Dry TVP (Textured vegetable protein)
1 C. Light soy milk
1/2 C. No sugar added applesauce
2 T. Davinci Sugar Free caramel flavored syrup
Drizzle of SF Caramel **** cream topping)

Cook oatmeal, TVP and soy milk to desired consistency (I cook it until all the liquid is cooked in as it will get creamier when you add the applesauce and syrup). Remove from heat, mix in applesauce and caramel flavored syrup. Drizzle with SF caramel.  It is yummy on a cold day and keeps me full for the entire morning.

I found the recipe from a lady on the Graduates board and tweaked it to my liking.  Hope you enjoy.

What amount of dry TVP?  1/4 of tsp, Tbs, cup????  Would that be equal to Unjury's unflavored protein powder?  How many calories in TVP amount?

I am so sorry, it is a 1/4 Cup of TVP. It has 80 calories per 1/4 cup.

OK - thanks  Looks as though it is equal to 1 scoop of Unjury which is 100 cal

That spunds so yummy - can hardly wait to find out how to make it.
