Finally a day off!


Yes i finally get a day off. For the most part i plan on vegging out :)

Yesterday i learnt a lesson, that sometimes you have to be satisfied with the things you like. You know how much i love my oatmeal protein pancakes, well i decided i'd love to have light fluffy ones instead. So what did dufus do?? Went and bought pancake mix that you just add water to. I carefully read the nutritionals and thought "not bad".
So i carefully measured out 1 serving. Lets stop there because honestly there was enough to maybe make one pancake!!!!! I have a good appetite that wouldn't feed a bird. So i add another 1/2 serving. When i went to eat them they were the thickness of two tortilla stacked on top of each other :( I ate them but i don't think i'll be making them again anytime soon :) Plus they left me craving carbs for most of the day.

So today i get to eat my ham, scalloped potatoes, cream egg and have a glass of wine. Happy Easter :)

Happy Easter to you ! Pancakes of any form make me crave carbs all day for some reason. Whimpy ones are kind of like waving a red flag at a bull !

Sucks about the pancakes.

Any carbs in the morning tend to make me crave more carbs. Oatmeal gives me the worst cravings of them all!

Those pancakes sound very interesting! I use a mix on occasion, but usually do my own. I have to make a LOT of pancakes to feed everyone so it takes a long time.

Enjoy your day off!

Y E S...carbs in the morning are a setup for carb craving all day! If I am going to do some (gluten free, coconut oiled) french toast, I always have some turkey bacon or eggs on the side to stabilize my blood sugar.

hey, nothing ventured, nothing gained right? now you satisfied your curiousity/craving for "regular" pancakes and know they are not worth it.

This happens to me too when I eat regular pancakes! I need more and more to fill up.

I hope you enjoyed that egg!
