Change

My husband and I have been trying to lose weight. C is down 25 pounds. I am down 10. It sucks. Our "eating lifestyle" changed the beginning of February. Every morning since then he has gotten on the scale and pronounced, "I'm down (insert 1/2+ lb here)." I try to weight myself after he leaves. Because I know he will always be encouraging and ask, but I know about those 2 cookies I ate yesterday. (Its down from 6, so thats a start!)

So in my quest to balance delicious goodies with watching calories and fat, I have of course, turned to pinterest. Because anyone knows that you can slap a pretty picture on the internet of some delicious treat and say, "Healthy! Hardly no calories! No fat!" Well, this is my mission to actually find the needle the in haystack. And then proceed to tell everyone about it. So far, my track record isn't looking to good. But heres that journey. First try: COOKIE DOUGH GREEK YOGURT

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt. Cookie Dough Greek Yogurt - add 1 tbsp pnut butter, 1 tbsp sweetener, 1 tbsp mini chips, and 1/4 tsp vanilla to Greek yogurt.

Now, I know you are also looking at this and saying, "Wow! That looks delicious AND easy! I can do that!" Because that is exactly what I said. 

Its a LIE. All a lie. Don't waste your time. Now, this isn't the exact one I used. I deleted it. In anger. But it was pretty close. And I don't know if I did something wrong (but lets be honest, not a lot to screw up here) but it was not good. Not TERRIBLE. But I didn't eat it. And I wouldn't feed it to my dog or anything. Its super popular on pinterest. I'm guess thats because not many have acutally tried to make it. But now you know. Your welcome. =)

Next time I will try the cookies using 3 simple ingredients: bananas, instant oats, and chocolate chips.
