Diet Update.........................

[disneydream06]

Not a weigh in day, but just an update...

January went quite well.

February not so well.

March has been an utter failure. :( :( :(

Not looking forward to getting on the scale at the end of the week. :(

It's early though, right? :o

Well, you have had a tough time of it. Your Dad acting up and stuff. Hopefully it isn't as bad as you think!

hugs, helen

Gotta stop buying certain things, like macaroni salad, that I eat way too much of.

[kaishin108]

I try to only have bread or pasta once a day and that really helps, but it's hard of course.

My toast in the morning is about all of that category I have unless I add a flour tortilla for lunch or dinner.

[disneydream06]

UGH... I have been eating way too much bread again too. :o

[kaishin108]

Bread is really hard NOT to eat.

Unfortunately there is a deli/bakery that makes this fantastic whole wheat (but light whole wheat) organic bread that is to die for. Yummy!

It has that 'homemade taste'.

[disneydream06]

Every once in awhile I will get some whole wheat from the farmers market.
I like it toasted with honey. :)

[kaishin108]

That sounds really good!
I could live on toast with different things on it, LOL!!!

[disneydream06]

Now I want some toast. :)
lol......

[kaishin108]

I would love a piece of toast with peanut butter on it.

(I can't keep it around here as G is quite allergic. I buy sunflower butter at Trader Joe's but it doesn't quite hit the spot)

LOL!!!

[disneydream06]

I have some oatbread and so I made some toast and put honey on it. :)
I would be lost without my peanut butter. :o
I tried cashew butter one time. I LOVE cashews.
Cashew butter was terrible. :o

[kaishin108]

Yum, oat bread with honey!

Peanut butter is the bomb! None of those other butters come close.

[disneydream06]

AMEN to that. :)
I'm a Skippy Creamy kind of guy. lol...

[kaishin108]

Yum! Yes creamy over crunchy is good!

[disneydream06]

Every once in awhile I want some crunchy, but then I quickly lose the interest for it. LOL...

I blame gravity for varying.

[disneydream06]

Stupid gravity. :o

I started exercising on our elliptical machine for 20-30 minutes daily on February 1 and dropped 10 lbs. Also made a very minor diet change. Right now I regained 5, but I ate horribly while I was in Phoenix two weeks ago and broke my pattern on using the machine daily, I hope to reestablish it next month.

I went from wearing 38 inch pants, which were slightly large, to 35/36. Visibly narrower waist! And reportedly thinner face!

[disneydream06]

I wish our treadmill was still functional.
The tread is torn. :(

[thewayne]

Elliptical is much more effective.  A lot more resistance, and you're using your whole body.  It has also radically improved my lung function!

[disneydream06]

Sweet. :)
