OK, Enough is enough. It's about time to get a handle on your eating and stop treading water. I've lost 1 stinkin' pound in the last 3 months. Tomorrow I have surgery on my knee & haven't been able to exercise in months, but that is becoming an all too familiar excuse. Starting Saturday, I'm going to post my menus for all the world to see & critique.

See you then!

Here I am. I've been too sick to get to the computer or eat very much, but I ate pretty good today. No weight lost even with the small amount of food I've eaten. Pain pills are worse than pain!

Breakfast: 2 LC Lemon Poppy Muffins & 2 cups coffee with heavy cream.

Mid AM: 2 cups white tea w/Splenda.

Lunch: Small chicken salad w/mixed baby greens & flax oil for dressing. 2 hard boiled eggs.

Mid Afternoon: 2 more cups white tea w/Splenda, 1 oz. string cheese.

Dinner: Ground beef/Organic Tomato paste/Shredded cheese/Black Olive baked thingie I threw together.

Doesn't look too good, but I can't get around much & I'm trying to make things that are easy & I can grab on the hop!

Febe, it came from Dana Carpender's LC cookbook. It was easy for me to put together, chicken broth, xanthan gum, cream, diced olives, sherry, sal & pepper. I hadn't tried it before, it was only OK. I needed something warm & soothing. If you'd like the receipe, I'll gladly send it, but I didn't think it was a keeper.

Yesterdays food was...

Breakfast: 5 slices bacon, 1 LC Muffin, Coffee w/cream & splenda.

Dinner: Pork Roast, Diet Rite Cola

Not a good day, lots of pain & Diet Rite to settle my stomach.

Today was better...

Breakfast: Bacon & Green Tea w/ Splenda.
Lunch: Chicken Skewers & Green Beans
Dinner: Leftover Pork Roast & Green Beans, 2 slices LC Bread.
Snack: 2 LC/SF Peanut Butter Cups
