I DID IT AND I KNOW I SWORE I WOULD'NT

I woke up this morning and decided to hit the scale.  Yes, I just did it yesterday for my weekly weigh in at home, but I had to do it and don't know why.  I hadn't really done anything over the last week to be excited about losing more.  But I just told myself to get on it.
I lost another 1.5lbs since yesterday.  I have no idea how or where it went.  I am certainly not complaining.  But it is exciting to say the least.  Just more motivation.

Tragedy Averted

I did well at the BBQ.  I didn't go overboard or take it beyond the limit.  I was careful to eat what was good and healthy and not destroy what I had accomplished so far.

Being Tested

I am going to be tested tonight.  I am going to a gathering where there will be a great deal of food.  I mean, a great deal of it.  And all or most of it will be the bad stuff.  You know what I am talking about:  hot dogs, hamburgers, chili, chips, candy, potato salad, coleslaw, mac salad, and all the usual outdoor BBQ stuff.
I need strength and I need will power.  Maybe I should wear a blindfold and a nose plug.  That way I won't see or smell it.

Something Smells Fishy


I decided I was going to introduce fish into my diet.  I have had many fish dishes but never really made it myself.  I cooked some fish fillets on Saturday and they turned out ok.  But I know there is more I can do with them.  I also had some shrimp in my salad tonight for dinner.   Needless to say, it was good.
I see a lot more fish in the future in my salads and on the plate.  Please share some easy recipes for fish.  But keep in mind I have to watch the salt intake and fat intake as well.  So anything with low, low fat and low or no sodium is ok.
