Sorry I haven't updated in awhile....not enough time in the frickin' day.
By the time I get home from work, and start supper, and catch up facefreakinbook, it's 8:00!! And I KNOW that's one obstacle in my weight-loss goal.
I just HATE this....my work schedule conflicts with one thing which conflicts with another and on and on....
Been thinking - SERIOUSLY - about looking for another job. I LOVE my job - REALLY I DO - but I get taken advantage of. And the sad part is....I let it happen. But when I've spoken up previously and it falls on deaf ears....I kinda give up.
.................ANYWAY......................
Staying FAITHFUL to my nutritional regimen.....STILL no bread, red meat, potatoes, or any added sugars!! Actually, I don't really miss those things. Sure....it would be NICE to have greasy hamburger juices running through my goatee, but it's not anything I have really CRAVED.....YET!!
Gonna do some "experimenting" with some low-cal, low-fat, low-carb meals....will update!!
Hey, y'all! I'm Sam and this is my good buddy, Merle! Welcome to our little corner of the web. And Merle says "HEY!"

Guess What?
Once again, while showering, I got the urge to weigh myself. Granted, I ALWAYS weigh myself on Mondays - that was the deal. But I never really restricted myself as to the number of times I weighed myself in between. Sooooo....twice now, I have had a strong urge to jump on the scales and today was no let-down either...
Since 01/03/11....I have LOST 10 pounds!! Lost 'em...yep...I don't know where they're at and I don't really care!
30 more lbs. in 341 days??? PIECE UH CAKE!!!
(I say that now.....will regret it later)

If I Buy An Island...
I'm naming it "Isle d'Tilapia"...I LOVE THAT FISH!!!
Experimenting around with some more filets I had in the freezer. Nice thing about these....they're individually shrunk-wrapped-frozen..have NO additives....only 100 cal. each.
I was still wanting to mess around with my fish taco recipe, ....and since I ENJOYED them so much last night... , I thought now would be a good time. I was happy with the slaw last night, so the only thing I did tonight, was grate some more cucumber into it and I added some extra lime juice.
The tilapia? I HEAVILY seasoned them with cumin and lime juice. I "wanted" to toss some cilantro into the mix - PERFECT with lime - but I decided against it. I've only got a limited "supply" of ingredients....
By the way...those tortilla shells - the low-fat ones? They're GREAT!!!
As for work? Was a very "strange" day....people acting all weird! Yes, weirder than usual!! Very stressful.....but tomorrow is another day.
Keep POSITIVE!!

Fish Tah-Koes? FABULOUS!!!
Here we go! They were, actually, VERY GOOD!!
This is what I did:
Bake 1 frozen tilapia per tortilla shell in 400 deg. oven for 15 min. Season with cumin and lime juice.
While that's baking, mix 2 cups pre-cut slaw mix with 2 TBSP. slaw dressing ("low-fat" was only 20 calories less than regular) and the juice of 1/8 lime - wedged. I also grated about an inch of fresh cucumber into the slaw.
Slice off one THIN slice of red onion and cut in half (1-1/2 per tortilla). 1 minute before the fish is done, heat each tortilla shell in a lightly sprayed HOT pan for about 15 sec. per side - I like 'em golden.
When the fish is done, let it rest for a minute and "shred" with a fork - leave good-sized pieces. Put slaw on 1/2 of tortilla shell, then, 1/2 of the onion. Finally, place tilapia on tortilla. Fold over, get PLENTY of napkins, and DEVOUR!!!
