Wow, the entire world posted today before I even woke up!
Love the recipes...like you guys, I'm trying lots of new things to keep my interest in veggies pretty high. Thanks! Did anyone try the white beans and greens soup that was posted on the Daily Dish a while ago? I have the recipe at home but haven't tried it. Think it uses Kale.
Last night I had that pork roast with apples, onions, cabbage and turnips. The turnips were really good! I'll have to post the recipe in the forums. It did use some white wine, and I didn't think about how much it was until after I'd added it.
I'll modify the recipe when I post it...but I haven't tried it that way, so feel free to experiment!
I didn't get out of bed to exercise today.
I'll do my Pilates tomorrow and then start fresh on Monday, no excuses. I'll get my stuff in my gym bag on Sunday so that I'll be ready to go. I really want to get back on track!
I got on the scale this morning and it was down to 221.5!
I have no idea why, which is the frustrating part, but we'll see how it looks tomorrow.
Ruth, you crack me up!
Love the cornrows idea! Be careful driving out there!
Kryss, your avatar makes me grin! What a mess with your snow parking...
that you don't get much snow this year!
Mama, great recipe, thanks! Stay away from flu-boy!
Cottage, cabbage is yummy!
Nally, good luck with the Thai food. I had Indian in London, and once I explained that I was looking for no sugar and no carbs, the waiter helped me pick things on the menu that were OP. It was really good and I didn't get sick later, so I know he didn't steer me wrongly. Hope your waiter can help you too! So glad you like teaching...I hate it when I see teachers with those mugs that say,"There are three good reasons for teaching: June, July, and August".
Anchor, you're my hero!
Can I borrow some of your motivation?
Bamie, feel better and take gentle care of yourself! We miss your "tee-heeing" around here!
Kim, CONGRATULATIONS on stopping when you were full! That is great!!!
As to the length of your restart, it depends on how long you were off plan. If it was only a week or less, I think a week of Phase 1 would do it. Otherwise, I'd go for the whole two weeks.

LC, so glad you're back with us! Isn't it nice to only have one job?
Try lentils in your soup instead of barley. Yum!
Barb, you are so kind and generous. Thanks for posting such yummy recipes! I hadn't noticed that one of Ruth's and look forward to trying it. Does your son eat it?
Chipper, you are my hero also!
And you're in phase 1 too!
North, I know what you mean...the chickies here have kept me on track time and again.
Check out the ingredients in your protein shake. It might make Ruth shout the
F word...you don't want something full of unpronounceable ingredients. You also don't want to be eating much with the word "hydrogenated" in it...usually powdered things have partially hydrogenated oils in them. Instead, try getting plain protein powder at a health food store and make your own shakes...try using FF plain yogurt as a base and include milk, frozen fruit (if on Phase 2), SF syrups, and the protein powder (or tofu).
