Gasp! How can it be November already? but this month is a month to nurture ourselves and be thankful.
Big family dinner planned at my house ( I am off this year for Thanksgiving! first time in years) and I am in charge of fish, of course.
Nov Goals
1. lose weight 5 lbs
2. increase veggies to each meal
3. remind myself of victories ( passed on Chik Filet!)
remind myself daily that my goal is to be healthy
thankful for my current health of me and my family
ONWARD! DARE GREATLY!

I was just thrilled to be under my calories for the first time in weeks!3. remind myself of victories ( passed on Chik Filet!)
I'm headed to Virginia for Thanksgiving, so I will only have to assist the cook! Seeing my son means a trip to Buffalo Wild Wings, but he's way better than me in cooking at home. On Sunday afternoon he batch cooks his lunches for the week. This week was rice, oven roasted broccoli and steak! So while he didn't SAVE money this week, he still ate better than me!

good for you being under calories! it has been a long time for me too.
doing better with cooking. cooked rainbow trout salmon, green beans with mushrooms and onions and little red potatoes. enough for today and work weekend plus some trout with zucchini for lunch tomorrow.
another victory. didnt stop after work in cafeteria for snack and diet coke!0 -
a good week. cooked a lot ( man, those dishes I had to wash) trout and salmon last 3 work shifts. better after work eating .
Building up my resistance muscle to give in by remembering my victories and reviewing my advantages of weight loss each morning! trying to sneak my way back to healthy choices .
