Cheddar Bay Biscuits

I haven't been on in a while.. I apologize for that.. But, I'd like to share with you all one of my favorite recipes.. Cheddar Bay Biscuits.. Like the ones from Red Lobster.

They are tried and true, and DELICIOUS. This recipe yields quite a few.. About 18 or so biscuits so I'd budget for that.... Unless you REALLY like these biscuits.. Then make the whole thing (like I do..)

The recipe can be found here. I happened to just come across this one day, and they are actually dead on as far as tasting just like the Red Lobster biscuits.

So yummy! Enjoy!

Weight Loss Update

FIVE POUNDS LOST!

I'm so excited! I'm actually getting somewhere on this "diet" which is basically just me eating right and exercising. I'm excited to see what I can accomplish this year, and the food choices I'm making are actually delicious! I though I would be starving, but I'm actually eating all day long! It's crazy! Some of my favorite food choices:

Chicken Breasts (Organic!)
Ground Turkey (Organic, 97/3)
Cauliflower (Organic, sauteed in a pan!)
Brown rice (Organic!)
Strawberries (Organic! [they are only around 50 calories for a whole cup!] )
Kiwi (Only about 50 calories each, also!!)
RICE CAKES (You can eat a lot of these for only a small amount of calories! And they fill you up until your next meal!)
Avocados (High in calories, about 230 for a normal size, but great if you're behind on calories for the day, and they are delicious and good for you!)
Baby Carrots (Make sure they are organic, or cut your own into sticks! Easy!)

These are currently my favorite foods and what I live on. I also cut out soda (even diet soda) completely from my diet, which I'm sure has also helped cut down the bloating..

I will keep you up to date on my progress! Thank you for the support!! =)
