Weight Update! I've lost 19 pounds since I've started (September 14th) I've been at the same weight the last 3 weeks but Thanksgiving I ate with abandon so I'm not too upset about this but know I need to get back on track.
Realizing my college ways were extremely indulgent, going back to the basics with some backtracking and sidesteps along the way

Frozen food review
Okay don't get too excited but I'm actually posting about food on my food blog! I tried this new Michelina's dinner, and was trying to get a picture off the internet but this item must be so new they haven't put it on their website yet! So I had to take a picture of the box after I clipped a coupon off the cover (food AND a coupon sign me up)
I loved this! This dinner was 290 calories and had a zesty cream sauce, Southwestern Fresca was loaded with broccoli, onions, kidney beans, corn, bell peppers and carrots- 10g of fiber and 10g of protein for a meat free meal! Also whole grain pasta (why don't more frozen meals use whole grain?)

Frozen Food Review
I tried the Healthy Choice Four Cheese Tortellini and green beans, it was under the modern classics category of healthy choice-they have so many categories these days but its one of the bigger boxes (12oz) compared to the usual (9-10oz).
I must say the nutritional stats are pretty good other than the sodium!
Theres whole grains, 2 servings of veggies and a lot of vitamins. What I also liked about this is even though it was a bigger entree, the new modern classics do not include the gross desserts that some of the "dinner sized" entrees do. Am I alone here when I say I would way rather have more dinner food than the gross overly sweet fruit concoctions they come up with? If its not chocolate its not worth it right? My rating 8/10- 300 calories, tasty, good amount of food, the amount of veggies was decent and nutritional stats were better than most frozen meals!

Amy's Indian Palak Paneer Review
So I decided to give one of these meals a try on my college kid budget because every time I read about one of these meals it gets rave reviews! This meal was not all that awesome, not by a long shot! If you look at the picture you can see it doesnt look that appetizing but in general indian food is not about presentation it is about all the spices and flavors inside so I dived in. It was pretty bland and not at all exciting and A LOT of rice. These meals generally cost one and a half times a regular frozen dinner so it was pretty disapointing to have half my meal consist of rice even if it was organic. I will be trying another one soon because I think I just bought the black sheep of the group but I am not recommending this one.
