I can’t think of another title, so good morning it is! I had so much on the DVR last night that I couldn’t blog last night – I had to catch up on my shows! 😀
Breakfast was:
- 1.5 ounce multi grain bread
- 1.5 ounce steak
- 1/2 ounce shredded mozzarella
- 1 large egg
- 1/3 cup sugar free apple pie filling (weird, I know, but so good! – only 30 calories and 7 carbs!)
I played the mystery soup game again today for lunch – I actually thought it was my acorn squash bisque, but it turned out to be Wisconsin cheese soup I made last January! OMG, so good!
With Tabasco of course! I made a spinach, strawberry salad with light balsamic on the side to round out my lunch:
I realized yesterday that I had received my 10,000 comment, and who should it be but Christina at Dinners at Christina’s! The coincidence is that tonight I made her Dad’s homemade sweet sausage that she so graciously gave to us at our blogger meet up. Oh my lord, the smell on the grill was amazing!
It was all linked together, but I cut it into individual links for easier grilling.
Tony wondered if I had invited people over for dinner! I decided to cook them all to make classic Cheezy Beef and Sausage sandwiches, and whatever is left is going into a lasagna!
Can you see the caraway seeds? Christina, be sure to tell your Dad these were awesome!!
My plate was 5 ounces cooked pasta, handful baby spinach, one link sausage (not sure on the calories, but guessed at about 230 and 24 fat?), and a tablespoon of shredded parmesan.
Stats for Wednesday:
- 1405 calories

- 45 minute walk at lunch
- 38% calories from fat
BIGGEST LOSER SPOILER ALERT!
So you know how I didn’t record the first hour of Biggest Loser? My wonderful husband found the episode on our t.v., and I paid .99 cents to watch it commercial free – how cool was that!
Love that Tracy is back on the show and she was able to lose 10 pounds with limited access to exercise – still want to know exactly what happened to her, I mean I know she’s overweight, but she’s only 37 years old!
And Coach Mo’s support to rally everyone together is a true inspiration! I hope he goes far in the show.
Shay’s breakthrough with Bob had me reaching for the Kleenex! I love how he kept saying “this is YOUR life!”
And what’s the deal with Amanda only losing 10 pounds in two weeks? I still think she has some issues she hasn’t addressed yet.
I kind of fast forwarded through the phone calls home, those always make me cry!
Alright I have to get ready for work now, see you later! And thanks again for all the birthday messages for my family these last three days! :D No more birthdays until October!
That breakfast looks amazing!
Oh! All of them look so yummie, would like to try the sweet sausages…
ahhhh I didn’t get the sweet sausages, but I tried some HOT ones and they are SERIOUSLY delicious!!! I also had them grilled on a BBQ grill, and honestly that is probably the best way to eat them.
I found the fennel seeds in there and that was the only spice i could identify. *sigh* I’m just not very good huh? 😛
Psst – they’re fennel seeds! 😉 Thanks for the shoutout! Glad I could be your 10,000th comment and happy you enjoyed the sausages!! I can’t wait to see them end up in lasagna – that’s a new one!
Mmm love that steak egg sammie! I made myself a bacon egg sammie yesterday and thought of you — “I’m having a Biz kinda breakfast!” haha
Thanks for letting me know! 😀
Thank you for the comment on my blog…love the food pics! I’ll definitely be back, lol! 🙂
Thanks for your advice on the bread crust! I love to bake bread, but it doesn’t always turn out perfectly 🙂 I’m definitely still learning and I always appreciate suggestions and comments! Your breakfast looks awesome by the way, even with the apple pie filling! haha
I love Coach Mo too! I hope he does well! I’m kind of annoyed at Shay. She needs to mind her own business and stop worrying about Julio. Sorry… my mini-rant is over. LOL!
I have a question for you… I’m fairly new to your blog so please excuse me if you have answered this before but what tool do you use to figure up calories?? I’m going to click the box below so I get follow-up comments e-mailed to me…. if you don’t mind commenting back….. I’d love to know what you use. I use a calorie counting application on my iPhone but I’d love to see what other people use. THANKS! Great post today!

I use http://www.calorieking.com. It’s free! I just weigh my food and type it in, so I think its pretty accurate.
Thanks for answering!! 😀

Hello. I just came across your blog. It has been fun reading so far. I look forward to reaind more! You are doing so great with what you are doing! keep it up!
I read somewhere that Tracey had heat stroke. She did great, losing 10 pounds – and yeah, what’s up with Amanda? Either she’s not eating enough (!!!) or something’s fishy.
I think I am officially sucked into the biggest loser, ahhhh!!! I watch it for the first time this week and I’ll admit, I was very entertained 🙂 It’s on my TiVo list now!
When you first listed your ingredients, I thought you ate the steak and apple pie filling TOGETHER. Guess not, lol. 🙂
