    Working late shift tonight...but so far so good. Feeling much better. I just need to know that I must control what I eat...it's NOW more about feeling good than eating something that may taste good and then feeling awful.

    Today I had:

    eggs and zip fizz
    cuties
    bell pepper strips and LC cheese..one slice Havarti cheese...two slices Kirklands turkey breast (deli kind) ...and I feel FIERCE!

    When I get home from work, will have prepared salad, I guess.

    Then tea and vita cake.

    I need to lose 18 pounds. STILL!

    Not sure I understand what "more low glycemic response and less Dr. A's interpretation" means. Does it mean no wine and no dark chocolate?

    Oh my! No. lol. It means: looking at glycemic response versus glycemic index. Dr A. has some fruits like watermelon as no-nos. And they have NO blood sugar response. They have so much water, there's so little sugar in the huge amount we eat.

    And corn on the cob... good fiber source and we eat so little...
    That's all I mean.

    Today's Menu:

    b eggs, green drink, coffee
    s cuties
    l cuties, deli turkey, havarti cheese, bell pepper, two LC wedges
    d salad, halibut
    d vita top and tea

    When Sabine and I did our reboot back in Feb of 2015, I started at 157. I got down to 140. I shot up to 153 several weeks ago. My own reboot started the other day at 148.

    I had a horrible day last week. Felt miserable. Decided then and there I cannot go through my days like that. Food cannot be THAT important. I must feel good through out the day. That is truly how I have been look at goodies lately.

    I am not pure SB ... but I am pretty darn close.

    Have a great day everyone. I will weigh in on Mondays.

    We've been quiet!
    I've been reading again (I do that).
    I'm reading the DASH diet for weight loss. So far? It's basically south beach with less salt.

    Today's plan:
    breakfast: savory oatmeal with spinach, cheese, turkey sausage
    snack: persimmon
    lu: chicken and brussels (left overs)
    sn: cheese?
    di: going to a christmas party at a pub....so... caesar salad.

    Lu: spinach salad, clementine, hard-boiled egg, 2 ak mak crackers
    Sn: pear/skim mozzarella string cheese, apple
    Di: mixed salad, protein and veg TBD (I'm going shopping today--depends on what I find), mini whole wheat bagel, pistachios

    Good morning!

    I'm about to leave town for the weekend with hubs, but wanted to check in and say:
    Have a great new year! And I look forward to more low glycemic/slow carb years ahead!
