oops. I did it again
I really wish these blogs had an option to set the publish status to immediately instead of it defaulting to unplublished. I've been posting all week but stupid me forgot to change the status again.
Sorry!!
I made the BEST dinner last night. I've been trying to calculate the calories in this salad but cant find a way to do it. I've been craving macaroni salad but cant justify the mayonnaise in my head. There are so many calories in mayo and I dont think the fat free stuff has any taste. So here's what I did. Keep in mind that I'm feeding teenagers so I had to make a lot.
2 boxes of Ronzoni Rigatoni (the regular kind, the whole wheat pasta was more expensive and I couldnt afford it)
1 pint of cherry tomatoes (sliced in half)
2 green peppers (chopped)
1 bottle of Kens Lite Creamy Caesar dressing.
Mix all of that up and put it in the fridge to get cold.
Then I took 1 pound of boneless chicken breasts. Sliced each breast in half (to make the chicken thinner) and marinated it in 1/2 cup of fat free italian dressing for about an hour. I cooked the chicken outside on the bbq grill, chopped it into chunks and mixed it into my pasta salad. THE KIDS LOVED IT! I cant imagine it having too many calories but OMG it was even better today for lunch.
My mother and her friend stopped by last night. Her friend has lost over 80 pounds. I should have been inspired by this. Instead I was sad. She looks horrible. Her skin is sagging everywhere. Folds and folds of it, her cheeks are hanging down almost into her neck, her arms and legs are so droopy and wrinkled you can barely make out her knees and ankles. I can only imagine her midsection. I found myself wondering which looks worse. To be fat and overweight or to have all of that skin hanging from your body. I know that's wrong but I couldnt help thinking it and I'm probably going straight to hell for not being able to stop thinking about it.
Am I wrong for being afraid of it? I mean, is this a real concern for people?
