Hey there lena, thanks for the well wishes, i had a fun Birthday party, drank a bit too much red wine, but i didnt go crazy with it or anything. (mainly because, as i get older, my bouncing back ability, seems to just not work..lol. I remember when i could party and then go to work the next morning feeling great...Years and years ago..lol

Anyways..mango salsa...is very easy but keep in mind i dont know exact measurements because i kind of wing it..lol
-1 mango peeled and diced (you can use canned if you need to)
-1/2 each red and yellow bell pepper (you can use any color other than green)
-1/2 cup each:diced cucumber and white or purple onion (the white is a bit sweeter and the purple can at times be harsh..it depends on your taste
-handfull of coarsly chopped cilantro
-salt and pepper to taste
I sometimes add some seasonings such as granulated garlic, bit of cayanne pepper..depends on my mood.
Sometimes ill add the juice of half a lime if i have it
Its really a userfriendly salsa, you can do whatever you like to it.

If you want to make regular salsa then omit the fruit and add 1 whole seeded and chopped tomato

Let it sit for at least 1/2 an hour to let the flavors mix
I hope you like it
Michelle :)

SO..its time for some postive changes in my lil world.
I dont want to be huge at 40!!! Im so tired of feeling sore, tired and sweaty. ...Plus, im feeling the need to look good...what the hell! lets go for it all...lol.

*sautee veggies for only a couple minutes, add broth, bring to a boil turn off heat and add cooked prawns and cilantro to heat through. put raw pea sprouts in bowl and then pour soup over top.
2 Glasses of water
Went to a late movie, shared a small popcorn with Dan, and had a diet coke

Glad to hear all went well and yes tallying them all up really helps - it is a pain in the ass but it works - when I am to busy to post them here - I write them down - maybe a little obsessive but I keep a diet and exercise journal both on paper and on the comp...Have a good day Chicky

Well it is finally the end of my week. WHEW!!! Ive had a hard time really making good food choices this week, my mind set just wasnt there at all. The result was that i felt like absolute crap, upset stomach, cramps, headaches...pretty much how ive spent most of my life feeling. I didnt realize that feeling like that wasnt normal, until i started to eat better. Well the good thing is that i do know the difference now, and i really hate feeling crappy. So I do eventually get tired of the self abuse and get back on track. Im going away with my boyfriend for the weekend and we talked about NOT eating like crazy people, just cuz we are going to be away. Not that we cant have a treat, we just cant use the weekend as an excuse to pig out. Im glad he understands. I think the challange in the 200 plus club came at a really good time for me. I know i really need that type of motivation right now.
