If you like Pina Coladas.....

Coconut shrimp. They were awesome. You must try this recipe and see what you’ve been missing.
¼C skim milk
3T flour
1T seasoning
20ish shrimp peeled and deveined
1C sweetened coconut
½ cornflakes
Mix milk and flour together dredge shrimp. Mix dry ingredients together and dip shrimp place on a cookie sheet and spray lightly with nonfat spray. Place in oven at 350 for about 10 minutes. I served with cocktail sauce.
They are about 2 points for 3. Although, if you eat 9 it totals around 7 points.(Dont ask me how I know this) Sometimes I love WW math!
Try to refrain from eating the entire batch. Please don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Also, I get asked all the time about what my daughter eats. It's simple. She eats every single thing that I make. I do not make special meals for her. What I eat, she eats. The only mods that I make are to make her eating easier; (instead of lettuce wraps which would be a hot mess), she gets bread, etc. I have found that my child (any child) will always choose the processed food if it’s offered, but will almost always eat the likewise if it’s presented. She just picks out the parts she doesn’t like, primarily mushroom and onions. I saw on a show last week that a personal trainer was getting on to a mother who had bought her kid cookies because they made her happy. The trainer said this "my parents fed me food that I needed, food for nourishment, they did not however feed me what I wanted or reward me with it." This definitely made an impact.

Today I upped the jogging to 1.75 miles. I will do this for about 3 days or until it feels good. Then I will move up to 2. I’m feeling good and Hope to be back to 3 in no time. I tend to have issues with shin splints, so hopefully I am doing this slow enough as to not get them.

My new breakfast obsession seems to be old news to everyone but me. It’s a little high in points but so beneficial in so many ways. I added 1T of natural peanut butter to my oats. It’s heaven, it tastes like a desert. I need to experiment with some different butters and see if I can find a more point friendly one that fills the need. Oats with PB is 6pts, I guess that’s not too terribly bad.
