Okay now that I got that issue all covered here on the blog we can get on with life!
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!! 
I carved this bad boy yesterday! Isn’t he great?!
Today I’ve been glued to my contraband food cards. That’s what I’ve named them… Contraband Foods….. sounds so ominous that way. ;-)
Anyways, with my new nutrition plan they gave me totally awesome (and helpful) food cards with all my contraband foods categorized with colored dots telling me if it’s a High Sensitivity, Moderate or Low.
Breakfast was honey nut chex and almond milk. Cereal is NOT exciting to me and I loath it so I didn’t deem it worthy of sd card space……
Lunch on the other hand was a total score! A+ Maren! Maren 1, Contraband Foods 0!! Ahhhhahah!
We went to a new place for lunch today and I’m 151% determined to no let my new eating habits dictate where I can eat… for the most part. So I looked at the menu and MADE IT WORK!
I had the Italian Chef Salad with no croutons or cheese. Booyeah! The only thing I ate on my entire list (including low sensitivity foods that I’m actually eating so I’m not malnourished) was black pepper.
But I learned the dressing on the side lesson again! Why do I not learn this lesson???? Always get the dressing on the side. I do not want soup, I want salad.
TELL ME ABOUT YOU!!!!!! I WANT TO KNOW………..
What are you dressing up as for Halloween and are you handing out candy?
Nope, I was going to but now I have basketball tryouts from 5:30 to 7:30 :-(
What food can’t you live without?
I thought it was peanut butter and yogurt but I really want to live……..
Have you tried the pumpkin froyo yet????

We missed you!! Welcome back! I JUST had pumpkin fro yo! YUM!!
Sadly, there was no handing out ANY candy on Halloween……had class and was pretty much brain dead when I got home…:) Where I live there is only like 5 kids that come by anyways… ;)
Ummm that would be peanut butter or any kind of nut butter. I have been adding it to my smoothies and it was JUST the ingredient that was missing!
I have not tired the pumpkin froyo yet….. I am obsessed with all things pumpkin right now though. I am trying to find the Thomas pumpkin spice bagels!! (with no such luck)
Have a great day!
that salad looks realllllllyyyyy good! im a complete sucker for peppers!
i didnt dress up for halloween because im lame-o. but kevin promised me that we would dress up next year–i’m HOLDING HIM TO IT! hahaha…i was kind of not home until late last night so i’m not even sure if kids showed up at our apartment…but i think the downstairs people would probably be the ones to answer the door anyways ;)
cant live without wings…plain and simple. although i gave them up for lent last year and i made it through like a trooper, haha.
I’m really trying to get Max to do a joint costume thing with me next year. I love ‘em!
That salad looks BOMB!
I dressed as a chef for a Halloween party I went to but I didn’t dress up on Halloween. My night consisted of cooking & homework for 3.5 hours — yuck!
I had pumpkin fro yo about 3 weeks ago mixed w/ vanilla — I want it again. now.
Oh 3.5 hours of homework, how disgusting!
