February weight loss
#31
Pam your FQ is here so you are fine. I was doing well until I made a chocolate cake today. I ate a big piece.I will take a piece to my mom tomorrow and my uncle. DH is on an eating binge. Hopefully it will be gone when I get home tomorrow. I have a fitbit zip. If I walk the stairs at school I have between 7000 and 8000 steps by the time I get home. I try to get in 10000 steps but some days the knee just doesn't cooperate.
Back on track tomorrow,
Pat

Working on getting some quilts quilted. 4 down, 5 to go. One of them is a giant (king size) flannel quilt that I put together over 10 years ago. We'll see when I get that one quilted. I only have a DSM Bernina.
Been trying to do a good job at my food. I think I am down about 2 lbs so far this month. Picked up some cheap veggies at a local church. They bring up excess produce from Mexico and I got a huge box of green bells, another of orange bells, a huge box of roma tomatoes, a box of yellow zucchini and 12 packages of "cocktail" tomatoes. I gave a bunch of veggies to my daughters that live here. Now what to do with the rest.
I have never made stuffed peppers but I think I may have to try that one. Maybe I will have to find some kind of zucchini soup or something too.....

THANK GOODNESS i bought a bag of chopped broccoli, cauliflower and carrots yesterday at the store..... I was hungry ALL day today....Took that bag out of the frig at least half a dozen times today to munch with fat free Ranch. I hate to think what would have happened if it hadn't been there!!!
Know a lot of folks are getting snowed in something awful......but it was a beautiful sunny 80 here today - so got to take the now walking DGD to play outside.
Wishing everyone a great week !!!!

I made a creamy zucchini soup for dinner tonight. The recipe is found at Skinnytatse.com or something like that. I modified it a little. Made mine with Zucchini, bits of broccoli, cauliflower, green pepper, onion leek, extra garlic (of course) and since I did not have any sour cream or greek yogurt on hand, after blending with the immersion blender I added an avocado from my friends orchard. It turned out pretty good. Hardly any calories! We put a teaspoon of shredded Parmesan on top.
Had a left-over chicken sausage on the side. I'm nice and full and it was mostly vegetables!

Megan--wow, 6 pounds--that's great! I didn't lose any last month but didn't gain either. I used My Fitness Pal last year and was doing really well with it. I may have to start using it again. The good news is that I'm pretty much the same weight as I was last year. The bad news is I wanted to lose more weight.
Sounds like a lot of us are keeping busy quilting. I've noticed that I do much better with food when I get a lot of quilting done. And I have LOTs of ideas and kits. I really should just stay in the quilting room.

Hi everyone! I haven't been here in a while. Life got a little crazy. I've been back on track eating well. Total weight loss is 54lbs. I just hit a low spot and came here looking for support. I hope everyone is doing well. =D
