Pizza Night!!!

So you're on a diet and you say you can't eat pizza? Think again, Fit'n Free Pizza is a great way to add this usually diet no-no and not be guilty about doing it. Nutrisystem did ship me three, thin crust pizzas, but they are about only 4 inches in diameter, about the size of one small slice of regular pizza. Many NS followers are using this great substitute from Fit'nFree Pizza. A 7 inch cheese pizza has only 212 calories, 0 grams of fat and 24 grams of protein and 0 cholesterol. So guess what showed up at my door today..... yep, my shipment of 6 pizzas. Actually they aren't too expensive, about 4 dollars and change per pizza (including shipping).

So I decided to give them a try tonight. My dinner was a salad of broccoli and cabbage, topped with my cooked tomato-onion mixture and tonight I added a cup of fresh snap peas. I also included two slices of Polenta and what a huge salad. You can eat the pizza with just the cheese, but most people add their own toppings. I added a oz of low fat cheeze (60 calories), 4 slices of chicken (60 calories), 1 sliced tomato and some onion. The entire Pizza came out to about 350 calories. The salad was another 190 calories (including the peas and polenta). Total dinner calories, 540 and I'm stuffed. I still have nearly 600 calories to get to 1800 for the day and I know I'll never get that many in between now and bedtime.

It's been a long day. Got up early, went to mass with my sister, met her friend Rocko there and his neice. Afterwards the four of us did breakfast at Texas, I had my usual, egg white omelette with veggies, one skinless chicken breast and 8 oz of Oatmeal. After that Vicky came over to my place to do her laundry (her condo doesn't have a washer/dryer). Then I went to Circuit City to get some blank DVD's so I can burn a documentary for some friends that want to see it. I also have to get a new DVD player but I didn't see one I wanted.

After that I had to go to the grocery store for some veggies and odds and ends. I was going to get gas today, but I didn't have my Platinum Visa with me and I was afraid my regular Visa wouldn't hold the charge. :) Can you beleive the price of gas! Here in Vegas it's about $3.11 a gallon.

Anyways, day 24 on NS was great again. Still no hunger pangs and I'm still struggling get in my 1800-2100 calories a day. Well, American Idol is on so I guess I should see the conclusion, though I may switch to Lost.

Oh, I temporarily took the Elvis video off the page. I get tired of the same song so until I find a few I can rotate I will leave him off. Elvis has left the blog!!!

I almost forgot. While I was at Texas station and waiting for Heidi and Vicky to return from the restroom, I put $20 in the video slot and looky what Mikey got!!! $500 bucks baby (four Aces with the kicker)... I hardly ever gamble. When you live in Vegas gambling is a quick way to the poor house. These casinos didn't net over a billion dollars in profit last quarter on winners. So the only time I allow myself to play is when I have visitors in town and I want to be social or on the rare occassion like today. That's $500 bucks they won't be getting back. Hey, now I have enough to fill my tank with gas tomorrow. :) Ok, maybe two tank fulls.

I snapped a picture with my cell phone so I can remember this moment. Last time I ever won this much money gambling, Elvis was on the marquee at the Hilton. Ok, so I'm exagerating a bit, but it's been ages. I really would love to hit Megabucks, it's nearly 18 million right now. Only problem is I haven't played it in about five years. Guess you have to play if you want to win. Oh well, my little $500 win makes me very happy.














Hope you all had a wonderful and blessed day!!
