    Last night’s dinner was oven made Talapia. A little oil, lemon, oregano. A large side of riced cauliflower and riced brocolli. This all was low in calories. So, I treated myself to a scoop of Strawberry Halo Top ice cream a little later. (I’ve discovered I can’t eat a lot of this...otherwise I won’t lose weight as well. But a little is fine.) I enjoyed my dinner!

    Breakfast 😋
    Banana/protein pancake topped with almond butter, Greek yoghurt, fresh blueberries and cinnamon.

    Great, it looks very tasty!

    Last evening: lemon-pepper-dill baked turbot over veg, with savory cauliflower, brown rice and a side salad (last not shown).

    Partially-successful experiment. Turbot was great. But the sides had some flaws: first, I usually bake to cook then broil to finish. That worked well. The turbot being thick, I tried a higher baking heat (400F vs usually 350F). This was OK. But I usually choose a Corning dish; this time, a stainless pan. The higher heat and stainless combined, I think, to make the spinach bed a dreary mess. Second error: the cauliflower. I tried a method of steaming the veg, then dressing for flavor. The method worked, but I overused granulated garlic and the result was not so good - but recoverable next time (garlic, turmeric, paprika, salt, pepper dissolved in olive oil as a dressing). Live and learn.

    Turbot is somewhat uncommon here (NJ USA) these days, so it was a treat.

    Haven't yet computed my MFP daily numbers on this meal, but they should be OK.

    I made chicken and sausage gumbo. It was just o.k, but with all the vegetables in it, I know it was very healthy and it was low in calories.

    I would absolutely destroy this fish but the veggies here....... nope. Simply because I dont like meals like this. I would cook the vegg separately.

    I hear you. I see you post a lot of seafood. Experimental mood this time. Although I have made a veg bed before that came out great, this was a disappointment and there's the double whammy of the cauli failure. I'm working within the boundaries of what the family likes and trying to stretch them a bit. It works, sometimes, LOL, and I'm not too ashamed to share here some of my misses as well as the hits. There's one thing to say ... another day, another meal. Thanks for your frankness.

    Risotto--arborio rice with leftover scampi (carcasses boiled and strained for sauce), leftover baccala' sauce, cream and a little white wine and freshly grated PR. All these leftovers made a great risotto.

    Not counting breakfast today, Mississippi pot roast with mashed potatoes and roasted cauliflower and caramelized onions.

    My daughter cooks tonight (with supervision) so it’s Mac and cheese, ribs and Caesar salad.
