Recipe Review
Week 33: Monday
Today’s
Recipe and Location: EZ
Pockets Apple Pies
Today
I depart from Ree’s cooking to try out the EZ Pockets pans. I decided to make
the easiest possible recipe to see how it works. I literally took a can of
apple pie filling, added some cinnamon, and scooped it into the store bought
pie crust and sealed it with the little roller in the box.

| This was easy sneezy and fast to make! Buy one! |
This
is so darn easy to make and it cooks in about 20 minutes. Just think, you could
make meat pies for dinner, egg dishes for breakfast, and pizza pockets for
lunch. This could all be accomplished in minutes. I plan to freeze the
leftovers, and see how they do in the freezer.
I
truly feel like I am cheating after cooking Ree’s amazing dishes, but a little
simplicity at times can be a blessing!
Random Reflections - Bucket List
After
I accomplish my bucket list goals of researching all of the towns in Kentucky,
and narrowing the list of possibilities, I want to spend a minimum of three
days in each town to discover what is the town is really like. I want to have
time to see if any of the towns are somewhere that I would like to spend the
rest of my life. I think this will be fun little weekend excursions.

week’s loss
78.2 lbs. lbs to go
Beginning
with a +4.6 deficit is a drag. Sunday and Monday were high calorie days because
I overate due to stress. I always get this way before the school year begins.
Sunday was really bad and each day after that became a little better. I stayed
at school late on Monday and Tuesday and didn’t exercise. That is not a wise
choice. I now finished my first week of school and need to get back to 1,600 and
1,700 calorie days.

My
step totals were pretty high, so I burned a lot of calories this week. This can
help balance out those poor choice days. This going backwards is really
annoying. I just need to focus on one day at a time this week.
Wants and Wishes
I
have a really fun family, and I would like to have some time alone with each
member of my family. I would like the time to really be able to talk and listen
to their thoughts and feelings and where they are right now. When we meet as a
family, there are so many people that you really don’t get to talk in depth
with any one person. This would be such as joy!
