I have been daydreaming in my spare time, what would I wear to fashion week NY if I were invited.. To the left is my vision. Nothing fancy yet elegant and very 70`s.

| WHY??? |
These colors are in now, but I tell you that these schemes will be to elegance what crazy 90`s crazy color schemes will be to mainstream. Anyone with a graffiti touch to their art will be definitely in.

| LORD!! Help us!! |
So I know I didn`t update last week about my diet. Mostly because I am too busy hiking up my pants with a belt after losing 16lbs. total. I will be taking a picture this week. Hopefully we will all see it. :)
One thing I noticed is that is I don`t sleep or workout too much, I won`t lose weight. I have found Baskin Robbins Sugar Free Ice Cream Flavored Candy. This has been my saving grace whenever I need something naughty to eat. I also have a recipe for french dressing and Creamy Chocolate Spread.
french dressing
Ingredients
Instructions
- Put the egg yolk in a mixing bowl and combine with the mustard.
- Season with salt and pepper and add herbs.
- Gradually mix in the yogurt, stirring continuously. Keep chilled.
Creamy Chocolate Spread
Ingredients
Fat Free Cream Cheese 1 tablespoon
Splenda 1 tablespoon
Fat Free Sugar Free Chocolate 1 tablespoon
Instructions
- Keep cheese at room temperature.
- Cream the cream cheese with the sugar.
- Add chocolate gradually to the mix and chill
- The consistency should be like that of creamy spreads. If it`s too dry, add more cream cheese.
Sites I love
- I am loving http://dukanitout.com This site is more realistic than any other site I have encountered because the have recipes of things you actually want to eat, like Pizza.
- If you are serious about your weight loss, you will need a journal/log of your weight. This site has a pretty cool one! http://www.personal-nutrition-guide.com/weight-loss-log.html
- I found Fromage Frais on amazon.com. It`s fat free cheese!! How can you go wrong???
- I found myself craving bread badly. I found an old bag of Kim`s Magic Pop, to my delight, this thing only has 3g of carbs!!! YAY!! I don`t see anyone online selling it, but here is the main site. http://www.kimsmagicpop.com
- Organic oat bran!!! http://www.nutsonline.com/cookingbaking/grains/oats/organic-oatbran.html?utm_source=googlebase
- Ok so once again after craving pasta, I went on a rampage looking for low carb pasta. Enter Shiritake Miracle Noodle!!! OMG THIS SAVED ME! http://www.amazon.com/Miracle-Noodle-Shirataki-7-Ounce-Packages/dp/B004CLCEDE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1306175293&sr=8-1
