Yesterday I didn't eat much. I wasn't feeling the greatest. Today I will focus on eating more protein.

Hope you're feeling better today…perhaps eat something that's protein heavy, but light on spices and low in fat (nothing greasy to upset the tummy). Don't push too hard…sometimes it takes a day or two to get your strength back.

I am continuing to focus on eating fruits and vegetables, and on stacking most of my calories early in the day.
Yesterday's big salad dinner was spectacularly good: romaine lettuce, grape tomatoes, fresh sliced radishes and two chopped green onions made the base. The I added 1/2 cup warm lentils, mushrooms steamed with diced shallots, a handful of the oven roasted vegetables I made the day before, and a generous helping of marinated lemon onions. Delicious!
I did two cooking projects yesterday. I sliced a cabbage, salted and massaged it, to start a homemade batch of sauerkraut. I also started broth oin the slow cooker overnight, and had broth with fresh ginger and miso this morning.

Thursday Plates:
Lunch: Small thin crust pepperoni and green pepper pizza at a new restaurant someone recommended to me. It was the first time I've had pizza in a year. This restaurant was amazing…got to watch the guy make the pizza…wasn't greasy, crust was partially soft, which is rare for thin crust and the green peppers were delicious. It wasn't overcooked. Only ate 3 small pieces. Very nice meal…got my hair cut and eyebrows waxed. Walked three times today and enjoyed a not-too-hot sunny day with lots of music and relaxation. Just a lovely, LOVELY day! Best of all…no pain and I can walk again…best day I've had in a long, long time.
Dinner: Three small leftover chicken legs 2-3 oz ea and leftover garlic red potatoes. Hit my protein goal for the day.
Hope you guys had a great day too!

Friday - we grilled out for 4th of July. I had a hamburger with lettuce, pickles, and onions and a side of macaroni salad with peppers, tomatoes, and apples. It was delicious!
Saturday - Brunch was scrambled eggs with peppers and onions and a side of toast. We will most likely go out for dinner tonight, so I'm trying to save some extra calories.

Saturday plates:
Lunch was a meatloaf, potatoes and peas comfort bistro bowl…
Dinner was turkey sandwiches, chips and a banana. Easy day.
This week, I'm concentrating on exercise in the new walking video group challenge and eating at home for both calorie simplicity and budget reasons. Gotta start a new payment for my bathroom reno that is nearly done (new toilets go in next weekend) and want to pay it off while it's interest free.
Thanks to all who participated in the challenge this week. Hope you found it to be helpful and interesting!
Have a terrific week ahead!
