    Take care

    I just put mine on Obesity Help a few days ago. It took me a month to get up the nerve.

    You are beautiful, no matter what!

    P.S. What program did you use to put all three together? I need to do that.

    The "before" pics are really important. I was a wreck when I initially posted by hospital pic, but now I'm totally at peace with it. I take a look every now and then just to get a little perspective. I will not ever forget. I must not ever forget.

    These are perfect "before" photos. They will mean a lot to you in the future. Way down the road you may find yourself upset by them or greatly encouraged. My old photos upset me but it's important to see where I've come from.

Donna's Copycat Fuji Apple Chicken Salad Recipe

Image
So I went to Panera Bread the other day and enjoyed their Fuji Apple Chicken salad. I have to say it was yummy. But after I went to the website and read the nutritional content I was less than pleased. A 500+ Calorie salad and a ton of ingredient names in the dressing I can't even pronounce. Although one that I can pronounce is Propelyn Glycol, which is found in lighter fluid. Uh, yeah... I don't think so.

So I took it upon myself to make a similar salad.

Salad Fixin's
Romain Lettuce (they used mixed Spring Greens)
Red Onion
Pecans (just a few per salad)
Tomatoes
Dried Apple Chips
Gorgonzola Cheese (just enough)
Rotisserie Chicken (Breast only No Skin)

Donna's Fake Fuji Apple Dressing (6 servings)
2 T. Olive Oil
1 T. White Balsamic Vinegar
1 T. Apple Cider Vinegar
1 T. Garlic Powder
1 T. Onion Powder
1 1/2 t. Dijon Mustard
3 T. Organic Frozen Applejuice Concentrate

Busy, Busy, Busy!

I'm alive, just been real busy and haven't had much time to write anything meaningful, or even meaningless in my blog. LOL

On the post-op front things have been going well, albeit slow. That's okay though. My measurements are showing progress and that's what's important.
Work has been crazy-nuts, but I am making my way through. Next week I'm off to Salt Lake City for training. I'm excited because I'm going to try skiing for the first time while I am there!
Here are some more progress pics. I'm 11 1/2 weeks out today and down 55 lbs. I am, however, going to start to weigh monthly. I think it will be healthier for me mentally. For my updated measurements, click here.
