That is a lot of potato salad! My mom was famous in her family for her potato salad. I hated peeling the potatoes for her, and I did not even like potato salad back then! I did not like the onion or pickle. I really do not like it all that much now but it makes me think of my mom.
0700-muscle milk light
0900-oatmeal w splenda and a boiled egg
1030-apple
1230-spaghetti pie
1600-baked cheetos
1900-spaghetti pie and brocoli
2145-25 cal hot coco and 2 graham crackers
all my water and such no real exercise. I must have went up and down the stairs 15 times today though! I was helping teach a class three floors below and I was the "gopher". Out of 15 people in the room I would say there were only three of us below 200 pounds! I never used to notice that kind of stuff but I think a few of them looked so uncomfortable it attracted my attention. I have to grocery shop this weekend; the house is bare! With my husband gone food goes to waste so I do not buy much and once it runs out we eat what is in the cupboards.
Leila if you are reading, we are thinking of you and hope all is well!

I bypassed all of that! I didn't peel the potatoes! I'm so lazy but I like the skins on little red potatoes. And a friend of ours gave us some teeny tiny white potatoes. I left those whole. I got my recipe on food.com(formerly recipezaar.com) so that I could increase the servings and increase the ingredients automatically.
I noticed heavy people, like we all used to be, seem to not want to move at all. I do the same thing you did as gopher! I walk and climb and do because I can! As a matter of fact, I'm noticing the number of people who take the elevator at church. It's one flight and most people take the elevator but I figure, while I CAN walk the stairs, I WILL walk the stairs..
I have rice salad to make Wednesday night and it just so happens that some of the things that I need to put in that salad are on a good sale today so...more walking for me too!
Things were really stressful for Leila in the last few weeks..I'm hoping she's doing okay. I miss her too!
You did awesome. Keep up the good work!
