Good morning everyone! It's another beautiful day...89 already so gonna be a warm one! Dh went fishing so I'm on my own. Today is my weekly house cleaning day so hopefully I'll get a lot done. My weight continues to be stable at 170. So basically I'm starting over again due to this darn medication! I'll wait til Sunday and change my sig then to whatever it is then. (sigh) I'm thinking it just may be my body initial reaction to it (or it's effect on my body) and if I eat well, I can get it back down.
Last night my dh made Pinacbet a Filipino dish. We usually use Talapia in it (lay it on top of the veggies), but the store didn't have any so we bought Swai which is similar in taste. But something was wrong with this Swai, I couldn't even cut it with my fork...the flavor was good, but kind of rubbery in texture. The last time I cooked it it wasn't like that. I couldn't eat it. So I ended up lightly frying some precooked potatoes (from our BBQ) and just eating that with a little of the veggies.
Cherry Tomato - Yes it probably was the salt. I usually gain with restaurant food for that reason. At least if it's salt and you don't eat out again too soon, the weight falls off again in a day or two. It sounds like you chose your food very carefully and healthily but restaurants always seems to add more salt and fat than necessary.
Rosey - Thank God your gd is doing ok and is home, happy for her and your family!
Jess/Donna - You seem much more carefree now that you're retired AND your hip is done!! Happy for you. Have you decided about going back to work part-time?
Well, I'm once again trying to discipline myself and limit my time online, not easy but I really want to so I can have more time for other things.
