9.6 pounds down
That was my weight on Saturday. So I should reach my first goal of 10 pounds by Weds. I dunno for sure thou as I had some serious arm wrestling with a bag of M & Ms last night and I lost…
I realize I have a pretty bad sweet tooth, and there is not way in hell I am going to be able to keep it under control forever, so I do have to endulge once in a while, but the key is to not let it control me or get out of control…
I also immediatly went to the store after work and got some sugar/fat free butterscotch pudding like Ella suggested and I am hoping I can ward off my sweet attacks with a nice helping of pudding with a small dab of whipped cream…
Tonight I had my “spagetti” supper again and it was just as delicious as the other day. I think I am on to something here. I added some hot sauce this time to give it a little zing.
I also found some good Progresso soups at the store that are 40% less sodium. They are a bit higher in calories than the light soups but so worth it to not have my daily total of salt in one bowl of soup. And I don’t think 120 calories for a meal of soup is a bad thing, even room for some Laughing Cow cheese and some stone wheat crackers to go with it.
I also am finding my addiction to soybeans is far from over, I am finding more and more ways to prepare them and I am lovin it. I still prefer them boiled, cooled and sprinkled with a tad of butter and garlic powder, but they are dynamite with Kim Chee sauce too!
I was able to trade on of my shift and give one away so after tonight I am offically off for 5 whole days….thats right FIVE DAYS. And I am getting ready to go away for the weekend with DH to Oahu and that means I will not be wasted and tired, so will be able to function….yay
Well I think it is time for some soybeans…
ciao!

Oh, wow! You’re doing GREAT! Congrats, kiddo! Enjoy those five days off - you certainly deserve them! If it wasn’t already snowing, and with a rotten commute home anticipated, I’d stop off for some kim chee sauce & soy beans. Your description of them sparked a dormant craving, I guess. Ten pounds is no joke - you just keep up the good work, hear? (Oh, those damned m&m’s….I could eat one of those great big bags of those all by myself! When I’ve been at my dietary worst, I’ve mixed them with a bag of chex party mix and nibbled on it all day - that sweet & salty gets me every time.
Go forth & celebrate your lost pounds, girlfriend -
Hugs,
Z
