A Better Day

Thursday was a much better day. I had my egg, cheese, salsa & cottage cheese for breakfast. I got myself together and went to church to meet the ladies for our quilting class. We are making baby quilts for sick children. I actually got to work on one today.
The good thing was, there was no food there. When I got home, I made yellow squash with onions, salad and chopped chicken. It was great and very healthy. Ray liked it a lot. He likes his salad chopped very small, so that is how I did it. It was great. I think I will fix talipia on Friday evening.
After dinner, we went to COSTCO. That is always interesting and expensive. We really didn't stay very long. We only bought fresh foods like strawberries, apples, grapes, etc. Fresh foods for us. I am beginning to feel like I really could do the plan.

Can you follow your life plan?
Contact me and let me know your opinions. I feel like the jellyfish pictured.

Second Night

I wonder if I am doing this right. No one to keep me in check. I had my salsa and egg for breakfast. It was really great with some cottage cheese.
I warmed up the soup that I made yesterday for lunch.
So far so good.
Oops, found some white cheddar popcorn we brought back from Kentucky. Put it in baggies and ate one bag full.
Picked up my elderly friends and took them to church for dinner. We had baked chicken, mashed potatoes, green peas, salad, roll, and pineapple upside down cake. I ate desert first, then salad and half of my chicken, little potatoes and peas. When I dropped everyone off at the Chesapeake, I went to the Farmer's Market and bought vegetables, lean meat, and some fruit and honey. At the check out, I found a Twix with PB and ate it on the way home. I am so bad. I need someone to answer to. How will I ever lose weight? I need some people to keep me honest. HELP!

The First Night

I started out really good. I had a microwave egg w/cheese/salsa/cottage cheese for breakfast. It was great and I didn't feel bad for a while. Took my morning pills.
Made large pot of chicken soup using ramen noodles. added corn, peas, onions, garlic, canned chicken, water, beaten egg. Cooked it a while and put in ramen noodles when almost done. Salt & pepper to taste. It was great and enough for Ray and I for lunch and dinner. Although at dinner, I fixed Ray a hot sandwich with thin rolls and a veggie burger and thin cheddar cheese slice. I cooked it on a grill like the Forman grill. Later we had strawberries and blueberries with a tad of Cool Whip on top.
That sounds great until I confess that I ate half a sandwich bag of tiny chocolate peanut butter cups when I had a urge for chocolate this afternoon. Oh well, at least they are all gone now. LOL!
One person followed today and I think that is cool. I hope someone else joins. It is much more fun to lose weight with other people.
Here is to tomorrow.
