P.S. JayJay, I finally found the edamame beans in the freezer section but I don't know what to do with them?

Bobbi - not sure what the directions are -- if they are in the pod you can just microwave them and then you eat them out of the pod. DO NOT eat the pod. Sprinkle a bit of salt on the pods - -these are served here in the restaurants as an appetizer. The soy beans are soooo good. If they aren't in the pods just use them like you would peas or lima beans. Lean Cuisine has a new spa meal Sesame Chicken (I think) that has the beans in the meal. I just love them because one they taste good and second they are extremely good for you!!!

Enjoy!!!!

Rehash today:
I have 70 minutes of exercise in today.

Yesterdays calories were about 900 as will be todays and tomorrows.
menu for every day this week will be:
4 program meals, and turkey burger with 1/2 cup cooked veggies.
(Yes, I am in transition, and will be off the program meals in about a month, until then the menu is pretty boring.)

exercise goals for Sat. 30 minutes recumbent cross trainer and 30 minutes walking.

Fun for tomorrow......I decided to make a jelly fish for the frig and add tenacles with every goal met. With each 5 pounds I lose I will add a tenacle with a 5# wt picture, at 50 pounds lost, I will add a tenacle holding a picture of a George Forman grill....and I will make up more rewards as I keep adding tenacles. It should be fun, and a reminder of all the work it takes to get a tenacle.

Tornado watch on for tonight....weather seem ripe for such stuff.

Good Rainy Morning!
Saturday we had to dog sit our DD's 100+ pound male Golden Retreiver and Tiffany didn't get home until late so we didn't get our BarQ rib dinner started. Therefore we just ate leftovers and my calories were very low.

Saturday's Journal:
Calories.. 976 (Yes, I know Suzanne, don't preach)
Fiber... 60 grams
Water... 11 glasses (8oz. each)
Exercise... Tending Chickens and worked on Quilt (My fingers got the exercise)
Fun... I played a 4+ hour of "Bookworm" on the computer. Geez, I thought it'd never end but I got my best score yet, that was fun! Another reason I was low on calories, I couldn't get away from that exciting game.

Saturday's menu
Breakfast:

Vitamins/Fish Oils
Fiber One, dry
4oz. Apple Cole Slaw

Snack: Coconut Fluff w/ff cool whip and Fiber One on top

Lunch:
Smoked Turkey
2 slices low cal bread
lettuce and mustard
Cabbage Soup

Supper:
Left-over Salmon Burger w/Dill cucumber sauce
Cabbage soup

Evening snack: 100 calorie kettle corn

P.S. Mickey, I'll post my recipe for Apple Fluff late this afternoon. I have to get ready for church now and we'll be gone until late this afternoon. It's basically the same recipe I use for Pineapple Fluff, I just substitue Applesauce, Maple extract and SF Maple syrup. But I'll get the recipe posted later today. It's really low in calories for the large portion you get.
