Menus and Miles Thursday March 3rd

Staying home today so hoping to catch up on some posts before DD and DGS get up.  I've started including some High Fiber Carbs into my diet again and the scales are actually moving down. When the scales creeped up a little I started avoiding them and it just wasn't working.  I don't think I was eating enough and my body was rebelling. When will I ever learn that you have to eat to lose weight!!!!!!!  I'm going to give it a few weeks and see how my body reacts.

Hello to all of my Lightweights!!!  If you are visiting WELCOME....PLEASE JOIN US and POST!!!!!

Writing everything down has helped me so much!!! I would really like to see some more posters.  Seeing what is working for others helps the rest of us put some variety into our meals.   It's very important until you reach Goal to figure out your Calories, Fats, Carbs, and Proteins so that you know what your body needs to lose and then to maintain!!!!

mesquite pork roast   over paprika mushroom  sauce with scallions and fresh mushrooms 

3 ounces very low fat ( 1  gram per serving )   almond pepperjack 

protein  herbal tea 

a tiny amount of red wine  ...like 1/2 a glass 

Good morning, Roz! I think it is always a good idea to mix things up when it comes to food. Glad to hear the scale is moving for you.

Feeling much better after a long night of ejecting dinner. I am heading home later this morning from ME. I cannot believe the snow mountains here! It's been a productive trip but I am ready for a night in my own bed and some snuggles with my kitties!
