I'll Take FOUR Please!

Soooooo, I am one of those eaters that is never satisfied, like even if I'm full, thirty seconds later I'll see something and want to eat it, or at least contemplate what it would taste like. That being said, I really like eating dessert. I'm definitely not a 'sweets' person, however I'm not going to turn away a pice of pie, or ice cream, or an eclair, or cupcakes with extra frosting... I mean… um… grapes or apple slices. If I have something salty I immediately crave something sweet, and after I have the sweet treat I immediately want something salty again, and so on and so fourth...and that is my circle of life-slash-death. 

Here is what I look like when I'm eating soup. My boyfriend took this of me without me knowing. Isn't he sweet!? And yes we are at IHOP… in weho… where there are some of the world's best restaurants... and we go to... IHOP.  I know. I'm the worst.  




Here is a Weight Watchers friendly dessert I recently made. It is for a French apple tart, or what I like to call, "MBFIS (My Boyfriend Is Skinny) Apple Pie!" It seriously tastes like apple pie. It's a miracle. I ate the entire thing and counted it as 3 ww points. I mean. That's AMAZING. The bad news is, I made this during a ravenous cooking spell when I was desperate for dessert, and I kind of forgot I was a blogger,  so I still need to make it again and write down what I'm doing so you all can have the recipe. I did however take a picture because it was just so pretty, so your mouth can water until I create the recipe to share!!



ALSO - if you haven't heard of HALO TOP ice cream, you need to get with it. It's so good, and it's only 2 ww points per serving. You can get it at Gelson's and Whole Foods. It's also really high in protein, so if anyone glares at you for eating a pint of ice cream in your car while waiting for the light to turn green you can just tell them that you need the protein for your bones and stuff!  

Since I'm such a dead beat with my own recipe, I thought I'd share some other health-friendly dessert recipes that I'm looking forward to making…and eating.

DON'T CALL IT A COMEBACK

It's not that I don't enjoy statement earrings. I was all about them 5-7 years ago. But I feel like lately I've taken on a decidedly understated approach when it comes to earrings, and instead my jewelry has been making statements in the necklace department. But it seems that big and bold earrings are trending again, and it just so happens that I came across these pretty pieces on Lucky Mag's blog. I just hope my ear muscles can handle the weight. Although people do say my ears are super skinny, not to brag. 






I'LL PROBABLY FORGET TO BUY THIS

When I fantasize about my home that I'm going to buy that is going to make all of my friends jealous, there's always tons of art on the walls. This piece is by Anna Topuriya, and I love it. I have almost bought so many paintings from art.com, but I never do. I guess I have art anxiety. I'll just add that to the list. 

I WANT TO LOOK LIKE THAT

MIRANDA KERR 

Do you think this dog knows how lucky it is? Do you think it knows that its owner is the hottest model ever with amazing fashion sense, and since divorcing super hot Orlando Bloom, is now like the most eligible bachelorette on the planet? Ugh. Do you think if this dog suddenly had to live with me it’d say “uh, thanks but no thanks” ? Well I bet this dog is a dumb bitch.

This outfit is chic, sexy and casually sophisticated, and I bet her stupid dog couldn’t blog about that, now could it?

I apologize.

As I’ve been writing this post, Olive Garden keeps playing the same all you can eat pasta commercial and I’m starving and out of points. I’m angry and I didn’t mean to take it out on Miranda Kerr’s dog, although it probably is a trashy whore.

WELCOME TO MYBOYFRIENDISSKINNY.COM

I set up this blog like 8 months ago and even though I haven't made a single post in those 8 months, I have, however, somehow found a way to gain 20 pounds, not save any money and develop some sort of allergy to air conditioners! Achieving all of these things WAS NOT easy. It took hours upon hours of dead-end online shopping, making empty plans to redecorate my apartment, and lots of stress eating.  

It's plain and simple, I need to lose weight, and be cuter, so why don't you join me?

Whether it's a recipe for a dessert that satisfies the fatty inside all of us, minus the fat, OR, finding an outfit to wear to an engagement party that makes you feel like a skinny hot girl, even though we all know the truth - this blog is meant to light heartedly empower us all. 

  
I am hoping, through my 'quirky' blend of utter depression and delusional overconfidence, I can help down trodden females everywhere who may or may not have a few pounds to lose dress better, eat better, live better and above all, feel better. I mean, if Gwyneth can do it, it must be easy, right?! 

Everyone is always welcome here, my digital arms are always open, however, you might not embrace me if: 


- You have a problem with the word 'chubster'. 


- You are a clean eater. Seriously, get the hell out of here. I'm trying to eat mac n cheese with as few calories as possible, I don't care if there's actual poison in there, if it still tastes like mac n cheese, I'm eating it (just kidding, sort of). 


- You staged a photo using a vintage typewriter.  


- You don't have a sense of humor about yourself, or me. 


That being said, thank you for visiting and remember, if you love me, I love you… Now, I leave you with my nightmare, what I could have easily become had I pursued my musical theater major after college.
