  1. This for dinner last night.  Steak on the grill.  Needed to use the grill since we were expecting and received snow over night last night.  Only 3ish inches but still snow.  Also had green beans sautéed in some bacon grease with onion and grape tomatoes.  Had a few of those baked crab rangoons left over so heated those up.  

     

    Busy day today at home.  Birthday party for my son, he turns 16 next Thursday.  Headed with some friends to go bowling then dinner tonight he and his friends request meatloaf, mashed potatoes and broccoli for dinner.  

     

    Also going to try to head to the gym today.

  2. Great day!  I love looking at the pictures of your food.  I live in The state of Iowa, where it just dumped 3 plus inches of snow on us last night, and I am so jealous of the Market you went to.  All the wonderful fresh produce.  We only get a farmers market in June, July August and Sept.  

     

    Keep up the good work tracking your goals daily.  It really does help to list them.  Sometimes you learn just as much from not making your goals everyday.  

     

    Following along for the food pics and I may be asking for recipes in the near future.

    I know, and I am in a sense with everything else in my life...it's not an abusive or 'bad' relationship...more like we might as well be roommates

    I remember what is going on.  I am not saying give up. Just demand more.

    Thank you!!

    The three year plan I kind of referenced in my last challenge, has to do mostly with getting our debt paid off (with the exception of mortgage and student loans) and then determining where life is going to go from there (on a personal level) There's a lot of issues I don't discuss on here regarding my relationship but suffice it to say it's not much of one...I'm giving it this time to 'show me' if you will, if that is how I want to live the rest of my life (hope this explanation makes sense)

     

    Gym has been happening in the evening this week, much to my dismay....she had a 'guest pass' but could only use it during certain hours...I'll be glad when I can go back to mornings but at least it's some type of support right now

     

    Always remember you deserve to be happy now.....not just 3 years from now.

    I was unaware I needed this in my life, thank you!! 

     

    I actually use the wontons in the muffin tin for fun appetizers too.  Take cooked shredded chicken, chilli powder and ranch dressing, mix it together then top with Mexican or taco cheese.  I have also done ground beef with taco seasoning and topped with cheese then have taco bar toppings.

    Took a mental health day yesterday 

    Slept in, did some domestic Rangering including laundry and cleaning bathrooms.  

     

    Nutrition on point.  dinner was stir fry chicken and just veggies (onions, green and red peppers, bokchoy and zuchinni)for me.  Made some rice for the boys to have.  I also made crab Rangoon by taking the wonton cups and putting into a muffin tin.  Mixing cream cheese, crab meat, green onions and some Worcestershire sauce and putting into cups.  Baking at 350 till the cups are golden brown and cheese is melted and gooey.  Yum.  16g of carbs for 3.5 wonton wrappers ( why would you list a serving of won ton wrappers as 3.5?) so not bad and I was definitely craving crunch.

     

    exercise.  BBWW done.  

     

    Lifestyle.  Some.

     

    today I am finishing up organizing and cleaning up all things Christmas.  All is down from the house but my basement needs some attention and the totes need to go back to their home in the corner.

      I'm in no condition to be in a relationship with any human being, even though a part of me desperately wants to be.  I need to be ok with being alone and focusing on myself first and foremost.

    I am so proud of you for typing that sentence.

     

    i miss Ravnos.  I am all RPG nostalgic

    Nutrition.  Not bad.  No cheats. Eating window was 10 hours.  No picture of dinner last night since it was the same as Monday.  Trying to make sure I use leftovers and not eat extra on my days off just to not throw leftovers away.

     

    Exercise.  My son ( step son who now lives with us, long long story some of you might remember) played at Wells Fargo Arena in DesMoines last night.  They were able to have a regular Basketball game there.  What an opportunity!  I took the opportunity and did a couple extra laps around the concourse inbetween games.

     

    Lifestyle.  Nothing today.

     

    today I am off and I slept in.  Felt good.

    That beef pot roast looks delicious.

     

    Co-sign on the plates. I almost always use our salad plates for my meals and it helps me gauge things better.

    Thanks

    That can happen. It may be that your body is smart enough to differentiate hunger and thirst signals really well.

    Today is a good day. Did the Beginner Body Weight Workout and watched more episodes of Marie Kondo's special on Netflix. It gets better after that first couple. I realized something with this fast. I don't miss certain foods I was eating, I miss convenience. I don't feel deprived from the foods we eat when eating out, I feel deprived from the convenience of not having to cook. I don't miss the processed food I used to keep in the house, I missed not having to prepare it. I'm gonna roll around in this realization for a bit.

    The Kondo series is on my list to watch.  I loved the book.    Very insightful eating reflections.

  11. I haven't watched the climbing videos yet but you have me really excited about trying. I have wanted to but the old hips held me back. Now that they are titanium I don't have an excuse. Thanks for sharing and getting me motivated.
