yum

Have you tried the Ore Ida stir fry blend vegetables? I just tried the Japanese Steakhouse blend variety and they were great! I sauteed them in some healthy oil and ate them over brown rice (from Trader Joes -- love the convenience). For 4 pts this was a satisfying lunch, and very tasty! (Plus I got in my healthy oil and lots of veggies for the day!)

one good day

I was talking with a fellow weight watcher the other day, about the struggle to get back on track when you've veered off. She passed on the advice of her weight watcher leader: you just need one good day to get back on track.

So. Today's the day. I've got a plan and I'm sticking with it. I'm ready for one good day.

3 sticky buns later...

I've been perfecting an apple-walnut sticky bun recipe for the Pillsbury bake-off, so, of course, I needed to eat three of them. (And the recipe still needs some work! One more batch on Saturday and I should have it...)

Now, here's the temptation: I've eated three sticky buns, so the day is shot. I may as well go to McDonald's for lunch, eat chips all afternoon, and order pizza for dinner. As my weight watcher leader says, "we drop an egg on the floor and think 'What a mess!' and proceed to dump the entire onto the floor."

So, my goal for the day is to stay on track with my meal plan today and NOT dump the entire carton of eggs onto the floor! (Or eat the rest of the sticky buns...)

back in the saddle...

Does everybody struggle with food, or is it just me? I do okay for awhile and then, wham, a whole box of oreos is gone. It hasn't been THAT bad, but it's been hard to stay on track.

This week, I'm determined. Back on track!

You can hold me to it. ;-)
