  • Hey there LT and LM...

    Boy I am so glad to be back in the real world. I pretty much blew it this past week and am pretty nervous about getting on the scale today at WW.

    cof - 1

    Midday 9
    grilled chicken - 4 steamed veggies - 0 humus - 1
    1 power bar 4

    About to do some yoga with my hubby as well. That should keep me from snacking. Last night I just couldn't stop snacking. I managed to keep within my range, but barely. I got to stop that night time eating.
  • Myra,

    The boca burgers were an inspiration to get more soy in the body. I do like them too. I have to say i'm sleeping worse with the slight increase in soy but that's probably not related.
  • Laurel, glad you enjoy the Boca burger. I eat so much Boca products. They are wonderful.

    BTW, happy birthday! Are you doing anything exciting to celebrate?
  • Hey there Laurel HAPPY BIRTHDAY sweetie. You deserve it! Hope you have a wonderful day.

    Hey there Myra. One of these days I will have to try these Boca Burgers you guys are raving about. By the way... I'm curious.... what is Taj Palak Paneer???
  • Indian food. Taj is the brand. They make frozen Indian food. Palak Paneer is spicy spinach with chunks of goat cheese. It is real yummy.

  • Thanks again for the birthday wishes! Didn't do anything special. i'm a little down on birthdays. Did my WW weigher training and signed my life away to WW (For $10 a week, it's pretty amusing the number of papers you have to sign).

    I really like the Bocas - but Patch you can't expect that they taste like a hamburger. They taste like Boca burgers which are very nice. P.s. Eddie (the cat) also likes 'em!
