Its the Weekend!!

and I’m so much on track I can’t believe it! stepup6.gif image by just_030YIPPEE!! I’ve watched my salt intake, fat intake, kept with my fluid restrictions and feel sooooooo much better!

The  fridge is loaded with fresh fruit and vegetables.  Turkey has officially been replaced by hamburger.  I have tried mixing 1/2 and 1/2 and it does cook up much better.   There are many options out there..have you tried Turkey Tacos?  or Turkey Chili? how about Turkey Spaghetti Sauce?  thats my husbands fav.  He’s so into this whole transformation and I’m so proud of him.

My general medical doctor gave me some tips I’d like to share with you.

  1. Fill your plate at the stove  (no temptations to go back for seconds if it isn’t on the table)
  2. Have only 1 carb per meal. 
  3. Walk 5 hours per week but work at a pace where you are working hard/breathing hard.

Some good tips and I’m certainly going to try them.  Anyone have any fun plans for the weekend?  The weather will be in the high 80’s??? Can you believe it….ISN’T THIS OCTOBER!! Sheesh…I love the fall.  I have the feeling we will go straight from this Indian Summer right to Winter.

Oh well….we’ll take what we can and make the best of it.  Hugs to everyone and hoping you all have a fun and successful weekend!
