  • Hello, everybody!

    It has been a beautiful weekend in the midwest! It was my birthday Friday, so of course that warrants bad diet and exercise for ... um, like three days. And now, I have to weigh in Monday night and I think "OK, if I just eat celery sticks and water for the next two days ..." But not really. I'm going to eat a lot of vegetables and proteins (and water), because my birthday indulgence foods were high-fat, refined carbs and alcohol.

    Sunday Menu
    B: 1c yogurt + 1T almonds + 1 cubed mango + coffee w/milk
    L: 2c pasta salad (pasta, salad dressing, eggplant, roasted red peppers, parmesan cheese, artichoke hearts)
    D: 1.5c turkey-vegetable soup, 5 oz steak, 1c lettuce/spinach salad w/fat-free dressing, 1 pc bread w/1 oz cheese, 2 glasses wine
    S: 2 oz cheese
