Down 3 lbs :)

Yay.  It's working.  Down 3 lbs since Tuesday.  So today is 243.  I totally forgot to weigh yesterday.  I'll post my weight on the days I actually remember to weigh before I eat breakfast :) 

I'm trying to not so much obsess on my weight as much as feel better, workout, and eat clean.  

Note to self -->

So far today I have burned 840 calories.  I skipped my oatmeal.  Instead I ate a small teeny tiny apple --a whole 53 calories.  Big mistake!  I was starving by lunch and added 500 some calories.  I skipped the carbs but still not feeling the best from the change up.  

So yesterday I made burrito bowls for dinner = Layered hamburger, corn, beans, salsa, chips, sour cream.  No chips or tortilla for this carb addict.  Haha!  I measure my success on that!

I made my own salsa, chips, & beans.

Recipe for salsa --> 1 can diced tomatoes, 1 can rotel, diced jalapeno, 1/2 limes juice, handful of cilantro, honey to taste (I use about 1/4 cup or so).  Blend in a food processor.  Easy, yummy, clean eating.

Recipes for chips -->  This one is SUPER complicated.  

Step 1 cut tortillas in triangles

Step 2 drizzle olive oil

Step 3 heres where it gets tricky....salt them lightly.

Step 4 oven 350 for I cant remember but right before burnt

Not clean eating so I will have to make my own tortillas and post a different recipe if I remember ;)

Recipe for slow cooker beans --> 

I LOVE re-fried beans but the canned stuff is full of LARD, yuck!

This is easier than the salsa and not as tricky as the chips.  

*2 cups dry pinto beans

*1 large onion, cut in half

*1 tbs cumin

*1 tbs garlic powder 

*1 tbs salt (I dont really salt things very much so you might need a bunch more in the end)

*6 cups water

Step 1 Place rinsed beans in slow cooker

Step 2 Place the two halves of onions on top

Step 3 Throw in all the spices (add anything you want--jalapenos, etc)

Step 4 Cover with the water, leave it on high for 8 hrs. 

Step 5 Mash, enjoy awesome clean eating beans.
