I want to be accountable to my friends at 3FC for what I eat everyday. I find inspiration through my friends, join me and lets work together towards our goals.
Food and Exercise Diary for Tuesday November 29, 2005
WP Points - 23
AP Earned - 3.0 (30 Minutes WATP 2 mile, 20 minutes Kathy Smith Upper Body Weight Lifting)
My recipe is homemade. I broil the beef to remove any excess fat.
Gone All Day Beef Stew
16 oz beef (weight after broiling)
3 medium Carrots, 1/2" slices
1/2 c Celery, 1/2" slices
12 Mushrooms, sliced
1 lg Onion, 1/2" Cubes
2 med potatoes, 1/2" cubes
1 can Tomato soup
1 c Water
2 T Flour
1 T Italian Seasoning
2 Boullion Cubes
1 Bay Leaf
Broil beef. Place all ingredients into slowcooker. Cook on low.
Servings: 6 (7 points) or 7 (6 points)
NOTE: This recipe can also be done in a roaster pan in the oven at 275 F for four hours.
Instead of Italian herb seasoning you may substitute 1 t each leaf oregano, thyme, rosemary.

Jan, I might be able to join in this, I need inspiration.
I won't list all my food journal from yesterday as it's not "handy" to the computer right now, but will do today's later on if I have time.
I like to journal, it helps to keep me on track.
Keep going!

Wow, I just figured this out and I can have popcorn now and still have a WW dessert and an orange!
Water, so far doing ok, will have more though!

Gravy
mashed potatoes,
spinach
lite margarine
I forget the totals of this stuff individually, but with a WW dessert at 2 points, I will end the day using 5 flex points.
I did have an acitivity point earned today as well.
I feel good.
By the way, the scale went down here at home by 3 pounds this week so far, that's not an official weight in and could change significantly, but it was encouraging!

Linda - The Flax Bread is by Dempsters. I also like the one by Country Harvest. Each slice has 3 grams of fiber and taste good. Congratulations on the lost, as well as exercising. I still need to exercise. My plan is to start at 9:00 pm, WATP 1 mile, Yoga, and abdominals. I need to get rid of my menopot. If you haven't read the book "Fight Fat After Forty" by Pamela Peeke, I highly recommend it. The book explains in great detail what womens bodies go through during peri-menoupause and menopause. Exercise, as well as diet, is key to ridding yourself of the 'menopot.'
Hi there!
Sorry I've been out of touch, but I have still be trying hard at least. I'm on day 6 with Weight Watchers and still journalling and so far have had a pretty good week! I've not had time to fill in my journals here, sorry about that, but I intend to keep going with this thread and will try to get back on track with journalling with you all later on!
