The Scale After Four

Still going down!
I've been doing pretty well, sticking to the Nutrisystem plan and it's working.  I'm  just .7 of a pound shy of a ten pound loss since beginning on September 25. If I keep up at this rate, I'll reach my goal before spring!

The easiest part of this is breakfast.  It's my favorite meal and I like the choices the plan offers.  I usually add an egg as a 'powerful' (more protein) where in the past, I would eat two eggs with breakfast.  Or I put a tablespoon of JIF on their Thick French Toast, which is what I had this morning.

I also like protein shakes.  I add a banana and cinnamon or a scoop of PBfit (peanut butter powder), where in the past I would add twice as much JIF.

The biggest difference is that I'm back to eating more vegetables!  I've even tried some new ones:  rice cauliflower and this week I will be roasting radishes!  They're supposed to be like roasted potatoes!

Bon Appetit !  Eat Healthy!  Nothing Tastes As Good As Being Thin Feels!

Mid Life ... Crisis or Not

Image
As I mentioned yesterday, perhaps I'm in a midlife crisis.  I've been reading several articles and blogs:  The Midlife Crisis ,  10 Signs , and  Is it Real?  to name a few.  So I've decided, I am in a crisis and it is in the middle of my life.  But I'm not going to buy anything elaborate --- except maybe that trip to Ireland I'm planning this year.  I've been overly stressed and overwhelmed. I've been worried about my health and well being and I do feel inadequate in both my family and professional life though and that bothers me.  Nothing really has changed except my perception.  At least that's what I keep telling myself.  It's all me and how I look at things. And then I don't believe myself --- which causes a crisis!  UGH!

Movie Night

Image
It's family movie night at our house.  We just finished watching Earth to ECHO , a movie none of us had seen before. I liked it.  It was Sandlot ish... about a group of childhood friends, solving a problem and becoming better friends because of it.  It also reminded me of the Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind, Flight of the Navigator , or  ET as the plot envolved children and space creatures or aliens. Next up is Big Hero 6 which we saw in the movie theatre and I wrote about in November.  I hope I can stay awake til the end. After that, they may watch The Book of Life but I'm sure I'll be asleep by then.  I love movie nightA

The Scooter

Well I'm back on the scooter I used for the two foot surgeries I had in 2016. It sure is better than the crutches! When I ring the bell I will think of the now retired librarian at our school who gave it to me five years ago. As I check my calorie tracker for today it states: 1694 calories food and 51 oz. water.
