Morning Tess and Botts,

It's 19 degrees here with a foot of fresh lake effect snow on the ground. It's supposed to head south of here and come back and hit us again later. So I think I'll go visit my neighbor and see if I can barrow some dog food so I don't have to dig my car out and go to the store! My eats for today are:

B-1 egg w/ 2 tiny slices italian toast and 1/2 lite and fit greek yogurt
L-chicken, strawberry and almond salad with raspberry vinagret and 1/2 cup chicken soup
D-4 oz swiss steak, 1/2 c potato and 1/4 green beans
S-protein pudding shake, banana

Have a great day all

I hope you stay warm and don't lose your power.  Just think, if you do decide to dig out your car think how many calories you will burn doing it. 

The snow is back arg! and It's bad out. Dug my car out, went to pick up my meds and then to get Lola's food at the pet store and then the grocery. By the tim I got out my car was covered and could hardly see where I was going, Then on the way home the ice cream stand had a sign that said "Opening in less than 80 days"! so there' hope

My eats for supper have changed to chicken soup and salad and I didn't eat any soup for lunch

I'm in for the night

Glad you were able to get out and get what you needed but definitely sounds like you will be in for a few days.  Take care.  Chat with you tomorrow.

Good morning BOTTS!  Sorry I am one of those who have the day off.  I was just flipping channels to find something to watch.  I see that on the Cooking Channels/Cable today at 10am est. The Spice Goddess "Inspired Indian Flavors" She will be making Baked Samosas

Here's a hint if you want to try making them there are a lot of different recipes on the Cooking Channel website.  However, I do not make my dough, I cheat and purchase Large Mexican Empanada Shells found in the froze food sections for around $0.99 or $1.59 for ten.  Only defrosted cut each into equal halfs.

Today, I am still detoxing so have a great Botts!

 

 

I knew you were off today and was going to be chillin.  Hope your detox goes well.  Also, you should be able to scan your file and then copy and paste your recipe.  If you can't, don't worry about retyping, I will look it up on Cooks.com for something similiar.  Thanks Wanda.

Good morning Tess and Botts:

 

Today I am off work.  Relaxing and enjoying the day. 

I weighed in at 175.4 lbs this morning. So all is well with that and moving right along.

Have a great day all!

 

 

Hi Scherrie:

 

You are doing really good.  Scale still moving down.  Remember, slow and steady wins the race. 

My weekly post: I am just recovering from a flu. Mild case. I was off for 2 days and then weekend.  Sick. The proteins did not sit well with my pouch. Saltines with some spread... and I craved carbs. I ate some fruits, some other chips.   I know I load on carbs - but when you sick - you sick. And I needed to eat something to take the pills.. Today I am not really hungry.  I most likely will not be able to get enough proteins. And that is oK. as long as I can eat something. 

weight - not sure... probably the scale would show a gain due to carbs and water retention... but as long as I can take my meds and my vitamins and the water - I am fine.
