Stuffed Red peppers

I made stuffed red peppers tonight.  I liked that they were stuffed with loads of veggies and ground turkey.  I think the recipe is pretty forgiving for amounts but if I had it to do over again I would add more seasoning. (That is was the reviews said and I thought I was adding more seasoning but I would do EVEN MORE.)   I made mine with red peppers, topped with a little parmesan cheese, and served over some whole wheat pasta.  I omitted the extra peppers in the stuffing because I didn't have any, added carrots etc.  I read the reviews and used what I had.  Like I said, it's pretty forgiving.  I was very satisfied afterward and probably didn't even need the pasta.  A great way to get lots of veggies in.  (Hubby even said it was a great summer dish.)

Playing Dress-up

I have had the goal to fit into my wedding dress again.  I felt like I was pretty close so I decided to take it out and try it on again, hoping I would be able to zip it up.

I put it on this morning and it looked better today (without a girdle) than it did on my wedding day (with a girdle!)  I was pretty excited about that so I took some pictures and decided to post them.





I have also wanted to have each post be positive and something significant.  I haven't felt like I had much to offer lately because I have been struggling with the new season and schedule change.  I have learned so much about nutrition and pushing myself in a true workout.  With school ending and seasons changing I have found that I need to reevaluate.  I have a new season in which to evaluate my new life and to really focus on my goals and my plans.


I will continue to post as I figure these things out for myself.  How do your workout schedules change during the summertime?
