    Thank you Anne for your comment. I did not buy a thing yesterday at the store that I have no control over.
    I have made me some pickle beets . turnip greens and have a pot of butterbeans going for dinner tonight.
    For lunch it will be left overs from Yesterday. pinto beans, collard greens and a veggie K bobs. Kroger had there's on sale you get 3for a pkg for 1.99 so will last for 3 days. I wanted to get some zucchini to make some veggie noodles but they did not look so good. So pass them up But did get a spaghetti squash I will cook it tomorrow

    I am really enjoying my meals.
    I have not learn to used my I P yet tried yesterday to cook my greens but had no luck. so cook them in my crock pot. Alice will be out Next Sunday and that will be our # 1 project .

    As far as the scales go I seem to have a pattern going for 3 to 5 days remaining the same then a lot so Sunday or monday I should have another lost. I am shooting for 5 lbs for the month of january i stand at 4 lbs lost so far. so need a lb lost by next Sunday. jan 31 Hope I make it.

    I always have lots of leftovers in the refrigerator but I cooked carrots the morning and have Japanese yams in my little countertop oven right now. Will roast a red onion later. Am thinking of cooking some rice for next week but have some leftover hominy. So haven't decided.

    What am I having, MARIE? I'm having a small piece of haddock, a small mashed potato, carrots and peas. Generally for protein I eat fish, eggs and occasionally roast skinless chicken. I envy you and the beans for protein, but I rarely eat them because they give me tummy problems.

    Good news this morning I lost 5.8 pounds since the first of January. So I made my goal which is (5 pounds a month)for this month and still have a week to go. I am a very happy camper.
    I was going to try to make some vegan meat balls this morning but think I will just used some Bean burger instead. have some frozen one i can used. but will get me a pot of Pinto beans going soon. and some rice for next week. Now to find out how to cook my spaghetti squash

    Have a wonderful day.
