CAMPING.....SO GOOD FOR OUR SOUL AND EATING LOW CARB

Well just to let you know my husband and I have never camped before. Well he has as a kid. As grown ups -so far has been pretty easy. We did have a few mishaps(parking in the the wrong lot# at the park-oops). Other than that-we are having a good time. Besides camping making you appreciate the little things in life...shower and running water in your own home,etc.....you appreciate the food the earth gives you. Making living a low carb lifestyle so easy to maintaine......NO JUNK.

Friday we had dinner at the camp ground. I made pork chops with a seasoning mix of chili pwdr, salt, pepper, onion pwdr, oregeno and ground mustard. For a side we had my yummy coleslaw. Saturday night we will have flank steak with a similar seasoning rub on the grill. I'm also going to chop up some red and yellow peppers along with an onion and grill it in a foil packet with some butter and seasoning. Oh yeah-and add a little shredded cheese at the end to keep it all happy! Sunday we have to pack up but we will have eggs and bacon in the morning with some good ole' coffee. Saturday we worked all day at our business so we at there and not at the campground.
I can't wait to get back there and breathe the FRESH air!

LAS VEGAS BABY-YES YOU CAN EAT GOOD!

Well most people think that when you go on vacation.....you can't eat good. Well I'm hear to prove you wrong. We are currently in Vegas and my husband and I have not had any problems. Really it's very simple. We've had steak and eggs for breakfast--hold the extras. We don't eat lunch because the breakfast was so big. So we have an early dinner.....If you eat at a buffet---so easy. Prime rib, sliced turkey, salad, veggies....need I say more. Tonight we had room service....HUGE cobb salads with diet coke. So good. We have been drinking lots of water and when we are at the pool--RUM AND DIET COKE. My husband has had some Tequila and diet coke. We did treat ourselves to some sugarfree ice cream. yummy! Other than that--no problems. VACATIONS ARE FOOL PROOF WITH THIS WOL--no excuses!!!!!!!!!!!!!
