1.) Pond's cold cream. Why am I so excited about something my grandmother probably used 40 years ago? Because it rocks my socks off! Since stopping BC, it has been a challenge all around. Hair, skin, and nails have all been different. (thank you hormones, thank you very much.) The best thing for my skin so far has been cetaphil, but I still felt like I was too dry. I have been using Pond's for about a week now and seriously notice a difference already. No joke. If you can get past the weird greasy feel and the fact that it smells like an 85 year old woman, you will fall in love. I usually smooth it on and then wash off with warm wash cloth. Follow up with a tiny bit of moisturizer. That's it! Who knew our grandmothers had the secret this whole time? And for less than ten bucks? I'll take that!
2.) Skinny girl cheesecake -- the tile says it all. Its cheesecake and its low-cal. Need I say more? TRY IT!!! It's amazing!!! (And simple...and we all know how I feel about that!)
Recipe compliments of Love And Life As A Gourment Wife Blog
1 cup Chobani
2 Tablespoons of Sugar Free, Fat Free Jello Cheesecake mix
1/4 cup Almond milk
Mix all ingredients well in a blender or food processor, or even whisk. This makes 2 servings. 100 calories each and 12 grams of protein!!
The only tweak I made was that I used vanilla Greek Yogurt instead of plain. Probably a little more calories, but that's what I had on hand. It was fantastic. My taste tester loved it, too! He asked for more!
This is definitely a great way to curb a sweet craving without the guilt, and you get extra points for all the protein in the yogurt!! Double yay!
