The Never Ending Battle

It’s really hard for me to get into the Christmas spirit this year.  Not sure exactly why, but it is.

Was very happy to see the scale moving again this morning, so far this week I have lost 3 pounds, in 4 days.  Today was my birthday celebration at the office. (THE day is tomorrow).  Its a good thing that I did not eat my usual (as of the last 4 days) breakfast of 350 calories.  We had pizza and peanut butter pie!  And I have had over 1000 calories in just that one meal.  Im OK though, that leaves me with enough for a dinner tonight which will be very late, we will be out until about 8pm

Made a rice dish that was fantastic!  I really need to get my camera going so I can take picutures.

• 1.5 cups rice
• 3 cups water…cooked on stove or in rice cooker
• half large onion chopped
• 6 cloves garlic smashed and chopped
• bag of frz stir fry vegetable
• bag of frozen brocoli spears
• 1 cup hot water
• 3 chicken bullion cubes
• 1.5 tsp curry powder
• .5 tsp paprika
• 2 TBL soy sauce

stir fry in onions, then add the vegetables and the garlic, stir fry until veggies are heated through.  make a well at the bottom and add your water that you disololved the bullion and spice into.  Add soy sauce.  bring the liquid to a boil and then add all the rice and mix until all is incorporated (everything is equal amount of yellow)  Very low in calories, very tasty!  Curry could be hotter if you like, curry paste would be could too, I did not have any.
