It was close, but I had three yesses today. Whoo-hoo!
Dinner was a mesquite seasoned pork loin, a small spoonful of mashed potatoes, and roasted under the broiler Brussel sprouts.
(My Brussel Sprouts story)When I was 9, my mom put me on Weight Watchers. I was about 10 pounds overweight at the time. My dad took me to the meetings. Looking back, I think I was a ploy to get my dad to go. "Bob, Betsy's getting fat. I'm going to sign her up for weight watchers. You go with her. She won't feel so bad." Mind you, I don't know that's what she said, but I wouldn't be surprised. Anyways, WW 50+ years ago was a whole lot different than it is today. Frankly, my memory balks at the things I used to eat. One of those things was Brussel sprouts. And I *hated* them with a passion. Simply cooked in boiling water. There wasn't enough salt in the world to make them palatable to me. My mom started cooking them in tomato juice, in hopes that my dad and I would manage to get our 3 or so ounces down. Thankfully, she didn't make them that often. I swore to never eat them when I grew up. Flash forward those 50+ years... I'm at happy hour with a bunch of former classmates. Someone orders the roasted Brussels. I tried one. Oh. My. Gods. I won't say that angels sang, but I was completely taken aback by how much I actually liked them. I won't eat them boiled or cooked any way other than roasted, but at least now I'm eating them.
And just to segue off a little... I had a friend at my last job who called Brussel sprouts "wall art" because his mom tried to force him to eat them when he was a child and he threw a tantrum, which including flinging the plate of veggies at the wall... and they stuck. 3-D art.6 -

I actually think that I've lost a few pounds (I started this challenge on Aug 29th) - - my tummy area is looking a bit flatter. I am looking to lose 20 lbs yet in 2021 and this challenge is super helpful - - really training me in portion control.6 -

"When I buy cookies I eat just four and throw the rest away. But first I spray them with Raid so I won't dig them out of the garbage later. Be careful, though, because Raid really doesn't taste that bad." ~ Janette Barber
Why don't you just buy a smal single package? Or share with someone else. Spraying with raid also helps with the bugs too I'm sure.1 -
