LaTonga's Weight Loss Journey

As a parent, I TRY to instill  the best values in my daughter. The other night we were in Kroger and she wanted to purchase a Naked protein smoothie. I had seen the drinks in the grocery stores before ,but had never purchased one. I generally would ask my daughter  about the sugar content of the item however, I was in a hurry and really wanted to get home to rest. Well,we purchased the drink and when I arrived home, I looked at the sugar content... Wow!!! 42 grams of sugar!! Ugh, it is loaded with natural sugars.  I used this opportunity as a teaching point to remind her to read labels. Would this be a healthy snack? Of course not? She could have eaten a single candy bar or 2 to have the equivalent  amount of sugar.  The one thing that I am so grateful for from my weight loss experience journey is the reading of labels to limit the amount of sugar and to better educate myself and my family. When you know bettet, do better!

Lord I love some hash!!! My mom made hash for Christmas! You haven't experienced good bbq until you taste my mom's!

I found these two recipes on the web several months ago. I had saved them on my Facebook time line but didn't try them out until this past weekend,   Boy have I been missing out! I will admit it !!! (Sigh..yes I will) I have been eating out too much because I have been off of work.  Being a single mom, I must always TRY to  plan and prepare. On weekends, I will generally cook for the up coming week. These two dishes are easy and quick to prepare.  Introducing chicken crust pizza and cheese burger pie to you-Both my daughter and I enjoyed the dishes and I am going to add them to my recipes of low carb dishes. 

I will return to work on tomorrow. I got my food prep on lock! Eggs, eggs, AND mo eggs!! Breakfast is prepped for the week!
