The World of Ms Pinkbiik

Just whatever, whenever, wherever....

Whats cooking ???

Tonight, I made something light. I am so beyond recovery for this week but I will do my best to be good this coming week. Going on vacation will not be a reason why I can't stay on track. Full determination is all I need.

Stay on topic... RIGHT?! What's cooking? I have been meaning to make this easy meal but really haven't had the chance. It was last week Wednesday night but I kept eating out for dinner because of my laziness. Tonight is different. Here is the ingredients Morning Star veggie burger, 1/2cup of rice, a cup of spinach a spray of Smart Balance, garlic and mushroom. Instead of microwaving the veggie burger, I grilled it on my grill pan. While on a small skillet I sauteed half of my spinach with mushroom and garlic. The left over fresh spinach will be spread on your plate like a cover then place the sauteed veggie and the veggie burger on top.

so yummm

Wheat Bread with Omega

It has been awhile now that I have been bringing my own breakfast. This way I control and now how much of the ingredients I use. I have been trying all sorts of bread and found that one that keeps me full till 1230 in the afternoon.

I call it the MsPinkBiik Breakfast with Omega Bread. We were grocery shopping when my fiance found this loaf of Wegman Bread with Omega on it. He believes I should try it and cut down on my white bread. So I went ahead and got it. It is thicker than any other bread. If I get my normal Pepperidge Lite bread I would be using 2 slices equivalent to a slice and 1/2 of this bread made by Wegmans in points. But the density and taste of my new fav bread is AWESOME. I have a better picture which I have yet to upload. This should do for now.

what a disaster?!

I have been good counting my points. Keeping track of everything I eat. My precious kid even helps me by keeping fatty foods away from me. (He is my angel). Today is a special day. Something very important between me and my fiance. Unfortunately, my precious son is spending the night with his dad so it was just me and Mr. Ungoy who went to dine out.

We decided to go to Barnacle Ben's. It is a seafood restaurant in New Jersey. It is one of our many favorite restaurants and this place happens to be where Mr Ungoy and I had our first date. He have tried everything on the menu and their specials. None of which failed us.

Why is it a disaster? It is about my diet. I am clueless on how to count the nutritional information they have on the food I got! Of course, they serve you bread which I was really good by having half of a piece. I did a guesstimate of 160 calories on a piece. So I count it as a point for 1/2. Add the spread, a promise butter that I could not promise not to have. That's another point. It was time to decide what I want for dinner. Since it is what I want and not the smart choice I could have done, I selected Mussels in Marinara sauce as an appetizer, a salad with Balsamic Vinaigrette on the side( used 2 tbsp) and for the main meal I had Jumbo lump crab meat cooked in oil and garlic sitting on a linguine with white sauce (had 1/2 of the serving). Tell me how will I surpass this dilemma.

To be on the safe side, I calculated my meal at 25points!!! That is just my dinner! Oh well... Need to get working on my AP's now .....

What's for Dinner?

I was contemplating on what to have for dinner. Veggie Burger sounds very yummy but my taste buds were looking for something else. As soon as I got home, I pulled out my frozen shrimp (devined), garlic, onion, tomato, mushroom and brococoli. My cooking skills are not that great. I cook base on what my taste buds are craving and not what I know to cook. Stir fry is always the easiest but I used the Olive Oil Spray just to coat the pan so its not greasy. I added a piece of Longanisa (philippine sausage) for additional taste.

Weigh In Week # 18

Hi all! How did everyone do on their weigh in so far? Do I seem to be writing in a good mood? First, let me tell you that this is the first where I did 33 AP for the week which made me so proud of me. Yey me! (from sweet life of zack and cody). On Monday evening, instead of going to the gym. I went for a walk/jog with my kiddo around our neighborhood. One thing I notice is the difference when I walk/jog this time. I am not out of breath! The goodness of having extra air due to me not smoking. Another achievement for me.

I really wanted to be good. I really wanted to make a change on how I live my life. I wanted to be healthy and fit when my future husband and I decide to add another Biik in our family. It will come and I know it will.

Everyone Cheers! I am now 3 lbs away from my 10% goal.

Start Weight: 185lbs
Prior Week : 172lbs
This Week : 169lbs
LOSS OF 3LBS!!!!
Goal : 150lbs

comparison....

Yesterday was a very moody day. I was very blue for no apparent reason. I went to work just like I would every other day but this day was different. There was a feeling of a cloud hoovering over me. Later that day, my son's school called and he had another accident at school. He collided with another kid and fell hurting his wrist. Luckily, there's no fracture.

I know that i am so out of context but here is the real reason of my blog. I love pictures and I love taking pictures of the people around me and of myself. Call me vain if you wish but I like to see me. I have avoided the cameras the a couple months after my mother and sister arrive. They are such great cooks and I ate constantly not caring. But after my engagement, I started to realize it was not flattering anymore. Have you seen my engagement video? If not click here. Not only that, my sister posted some photos she took while we were looking around the PSPG vessel at the waterfront.



Hideous! I looked pregnant. I can't imagine I let myself go like this again. I swear that this will not happen again. Even if I decided to have more children. Food will not take over my life because now I decide that I am going to Eat to live and not live to EAT.

In my struggle, I feel success so far. This is me over the weekend when My precious and Mr. Ungoy went to play golf.




I was 190lbs when I got engaged. Then I dropped 5lbs by cutting down on my rice intake. Then joined weight watchers and is now down to 172lbs. Tomorrow is my Weigh In. I will keep you guys informed on how it went.
