Sor she said if you weight 188 (I wish) on January 1, then your goal for February 1 would be to weight 180. March 1 would be to be at 172 and so on throughout the next year. Then write a short diary on how you got there and your plans to keep going. I am going to try that. Seems easy enough broken down in the small goals like that rather than looking to lose 50 pounds.

Black bean soup with orange, salad and a slice of very healthy bread. 307 cal. Have enough cal. left for toast and peanut butter.
My DIL has about 125 lbs to loose and she came to me just before Christmas and said she wanted to get healthy in the New Year could I help her. I am so happy she asked. So I'm helping her to start eating better and we are going walking every morning. We walked 2 miles this morning.
This is a bonus for me because I already walk 2 miles with my SIL at 5:20 am then do my elliptical training. So it just adds more movement to my day and helps her. Doing a happy dance for both of us.

Holey moley, it's only Jan 4th and we are up to 43 pages! Time to buckle up, it's going to be a wild ride. Your quilts are great Carrie, I especially love the second one. And I'm loving the recipes, I am definitely going to try the frittata. I made baked oatmeal on Sunday and thought of you Tru, it was very yummy.

I had breaded baked chicken and a green salad with a honey mustard dressing and shredded cheddar cheese sprinkled on top for dinner. I could eat that every night. Remember I don't count calories, I have just changed my eating habits and the amounts that I eat. I aslo drank more water and only had 1 glass of diet soda. I make lunch my biggest meal of the day and have a snack before bed. If I don't have a snack then I wake up during the night with stomach cramps and I don't like to have my sleep interrupted. It makes for a cranky mommy. LOL!!
