Day 5

I've lost 3 pounds by my scales. Having water with fiber and vits and then a small glass of juice, 4 oz. yogurt, and 1/2 bagel for breakfast. Hubby is cooking lean ham (ALL fat removed), fresh potatoes, and cabbage from the garden for lunch. YUM!

Just rode my bike 2 1/4 miles. Getting warm out there. I think I'll have a Hard Rock glass of ice cold water.

Even though I'm tracking everything I put in my mouth, I think this blog is an added bonus to aid with accountability.

Had a nice lunch with above items plus some fresh spring onions that tasted like candy. Hubby cooked :-]
He didn't get the cabbage quite done and I didn't eat much of it. I told him I'd save it and perhaps stir-fry it with some grilled chicken, carrots, etc. He finished off the cherry cobbler he made day before yesterday. It didn't bother me. In fact, I told him I'd fix him some biscuits to go with the red eye gravy, but he declined. He really is a sweetheart and I know he'll support my weight loss program.

Hubby will be with his mother tonight, and since we had a nice hot lunch, I'll have a salad tonight with some grilled chicken, cauliflower, carrots, celery, and if I have the points, a smidgen of sharp cheddar.

Wrote ten more pages of novel. Nice to be back to work on that.

I just ate a wonderful salad with fresh lettuce from the garden along with carrots, celery, the last of the beets, a little onion, and grilled chicken. I arranged it on a large pasta plate and it looked like it belonged in a restaurant. Delish! Dressing on the side as always so I can stick my fork in it and then into the salad. Barely use any dressing this way, only get that little taste on the veggies. Filling and satisfying to know that I have plenty of points remaining if I want to use them later.
