    Low Carb Chicken Tenders

    Let me first start off by saying, I am not the type of person who believes in depriving yourself of food to lose weight.

    Join The #2015Revolution With Special K & Nia Vardalos

    It is day 11 of 2015 and I have already failed my New Year’s Resolution to lose weight. With all of the left over goodies that were lying around I have managed to gain 2 pounds within the last 2 weeks. Thankfully because it is so early in the year, rather than getting discouraged and giving up I am going to switch it up a little and turn my resolution into a #2015REVOLUTION. What’s the…
