Sunday’s Post

 

No weight loss today. but man, that dress I wore last Sunday sure looked a lot better on me today than last week.  I’m excited to be taking measurements tomorrow.

Today’s meals:

Breakfast:  I wasn’t very hungry at all when I woke up.  I drank my fiber drink and had a pear and a piece of longhorn colby cheese.

Lunch:  MMMM  old fashioned pot roast with potatoes, onions and carrots all cooked together and home made gravy.  I had a plate that was full.  Two whole carrots, one small potato, 1/2 a large onion, lots of gravy and about four ounces of meat.  I ate that and that was all.  My normal habit is to keep eating for taste.  You know, it just tastes so good.  I almost always have three potatoes with gravy and at least another ounce of meat with gravy.  I could NOT do it.  I could not eat another bite.  Gilbert couldn’t believe that was it!  What he said, you’re not eating more than me for a change?  LOL

(clarification here!  I am NOT trying to deliberately eat less of anything.  I am NOT fixing any “special” foods, I am NOT saying oh, yum, I could eat more but I won’t)

It was so beautiful out today.  I just wanted to go for a walk.  I grabbed my camera and went out just walking, not pushing, not over exertion, but not strolling.  Just walking and stopping whenever I wanted to take a picture or two.  Saw some beautiful butterflies and the milkweed is opening.  I walked for about forty minutes. 

Snack:  I was a tiny bit hungry at 4:00 and we were watching the football game on our laptops and I ate an apple and a Tablespoon of peanut butter. It’s a favorite standby snack.   ( Packers  beat the Broncos and now are 4-0)

Supper: Now, since I snacked, I’m not hungry.  Something light then.  I had this soup in the cupboard and added to it the leftover ring of bolgona which was about seven ounces.  I heated up the last of the cornbread and had a small piece of that to go along with the bologna soup. Ha ha.  A new concoction.  Here’s the soup pic.

I go to the doctor tomorrow morning and will go ahead and post my stats.  You’ll be shocked I know but that cholesterol and triglycerides is something I have battled with even when I only weighed 100 lbs. at age twenty one.  Being thin outside doesn’t mean you don’t have internal fat.

Good Night, then, til tomorrow!
