Weekly Chat: December 29- January 4

[Tejas]

Good Morning All:

My eating was totally disorganized yesterday. I don't know why really but it won't be again today.

I started the day with a tasty frittata made with shallots, mushrooms and egg substitute. The rest of the day will be leftovers of Core meatloaf, and ham, with some veggies.

I think I'm going to pay more attention to the kinds of vegetables I eat, adding more of the dark green ones like spinach, collards and kale. I tend to eat too many peas and corn, I think. I don't eat much bread but I'm going to go a month without any except for the toast at night every now and again.

I hope you all have a great day. I've got to go back to work tomorrow...starting the 6 month count-down!

Rhonda

Hi Everyone
SEPTEMBERSGOAL on the new baby on the way. Your little girl is so cute. Keep us up to date.
Well not much going on here.
Went to church. Came home. Now waiting until the time we leave to go to hubbys' niece's for dinner. But I am going to have a very hard time. They are having creamed chicken and biscuts with mash potato's. And not sure about dessert. Told hubby I am going to take me a WW chocolate chip cookie and some tea. Maybe with the tea. I can get by without the cookie. Just want to be prepared. Not sure what flavor I am going to take. Either Vanilla Chai or Gingerbread Spice.
It is raining some today. So a dreary day.
Did anyone see the Goodhouse Keeping magazine out now. The weight loss stories are people that did WW. There are five of them 3 ladies and 2 guys.
BEACHBUM Sure hope you get over your cold soon.
TEJAS I am afraid I will be out of control today. But I keep thinking. I cant. I weigh in tomorrow. So that will help me keep focused.
PATTYGIRL Hope you had a good day out.
ONTARGET How's your weather been.
BLESSEDWITHSARAH Have fun trying new recipes in your cooker. It sounds really nice.
VICKIE how are you doing. Been thinking about you.
Well I better get off here for now.
I am thinking of each of you.
Have a wonderful Sunday.

Happy sunday everyone. Just wanted to stop by quick before I take our dog for a walk. DD is at a friends for the afternoon, that girl was here yesterday. I made chicken caciatorre yesterday in my pressure cooker. I love it! The chicken was very moist, I used breasts. I never used breasts in the slow cooker since they dry out. I'm going to try a pot roast on Tuesday in it.

Things are going well OP. My scale is down still.

Rhonda, congrats on the 6 month count down!! Wish I were in your shoes. Oh well......

Maryann, should warm up a bit over the next few days. Lets hope all the ice goes soon.

Hi to Coco, Sandra, Vickie, Trish and anyone I may have missed. BBL

Hi there, Chickies. My eating's been op for almost 3 days. Yesterday I ate Fiber One bars while we were shooting. One point each was much better than the normal 4 point granola bar. Our next challenge will be next weekend. We're going to Houston to visit family and friends. Almost every meeting revolves around food. Oh, well, life goes on. (And I'll have a new week beginning Friday.)

Rhonda, I admire you for quitting bread. I am a creature of habit, too, when it comes to veggies. One thing I've noticed, though, is that I don't eat as many potatoes as before. We go to Susannah's for veggie plates about once a week now. That helps us get in a variety.

Coco, we've had gorgeous (70ish) weather lately but a cold spell just came through and it's 40ish today. The sun is shining and the birds are all over the feeders. What kind of WW cookie do you like? I've tried the chocolate chip and the oatmeal. I like them all right but Curtis doesn't care for them. Guess that leaves more for me.

Paula, I'm glad you're getting your WW at work class back. You sound very excited. Makes me smile.
