Pumpkin muffins, Almond Pancakes, and WOW!

Good Morning all,

Well I have to say, those cookies I made the other day were a big hit with Hubby. He hasn't stopped eating them. I'm gonna have to make some more.

Yesterday I made the coconut flour pumpkin muffins from Amber's blog.

My batch made 12 and they were good but were definitely missing something. Not sweet enough.  I looked up coconut flour pumpkin recipes on the internet. What did we ever do w/o it before? So the next time I make them, I am gonna change it to 6 eggs w/no milk, and 1/4 cup of joseph's sugar free syrup, and 1/4 t of ground cloves. I think it will have more flavor that way. I put it on the recipes tab and post changes after I make them again.

This morning I made Almond flour Pancakes.

I am afraid I let them get too brown. The whole batch made 6 and I ate 3 w/butter and S/F syrup and some berries. All together my meal was S-5/C-1
I thought the taste was WAY different from the coconut flour ones. Very good! You should try them. (on recipe tab above).

You know what is funny about eating all this coconut and almond flour stuff? I feel like I am eat a lot but in actuality I am not. I love it!

Yesterday I was getting ready to get in the shower and I was letting the water get warm and in my birthday suit (of course). I was looking in the closet to find something to wear and took out a pair of my old pants. I kept in the back of the closet 1 pair to refer to for later. It was my favorite and most comfortable jeans from before. They were size 18's and always skin tight and I had to leave the button open at the top. Come - ON girls, you know!!

I put them on and could not believe my eyes.

This picture was looking down in the pants.

I tried to take my own pictures, but it didn't have the same effect that I saw myself. I could actually fit another me in there! Literally. I am not sure if you can see it or not? With my E.T's it was hard to hold my hands still.

Well anyway, it is so hard for me to realize that I was actually that big. The thigh and waist area was twice as big as I am now. My hubby said this morning, Do you remember when you were ever this small?? I think it was 28 years ago when my daughter was 5. WOW!!

I just want to say that I am a regular person that got lucky and found the perfect thing for me and lost 88 lbs. I feel and look like a whole different person.

I want to encourage all of you and let you know:

That if I Can DO IT - YOU CAN DO IT TOO :-)

Thanks for listening. I got lots of love for ya All. WWRD??

My thought for the day:

Common Sense

It is a thousand times better to have common sense without education than to have education without common sense. 

Keep on BFC ' n  :-)
