Menus and Miles Monday Aug. 27th
WARNING TO SELF AND TO ANYONE WHO WILL LISTEN!!! AVOID 'BAD' CARBS AT ALL COSTS!!! THEY ARE ADDICTING!! THEY WILL SLOW DOWN YOUR WEIGHT LOSS DURING THE LOSING STAGE (and you won't even notice)!! THEY WILL MAKE THE SCALE GO UP AFTER THE HONEYMOON PERIOD IS OVER!
Success in Maintenance starts with good choices during the Honeymoon Phase!
The last Monday in August.....
Our schools start here on Wednesday so even though the weather is beautiful school means the end of summer. I like the fall weather but I can't get past that winter will soon follow. I'm going to try my best to think positively and enjoy all of the fall colors that our area alwaus has. I tried to many different things at the reunion (there was this blueberry peach dessert that was to die for) so my scales were up a couple of pounds this morning. It's strange how the scales effect me so differently than they did before WLS. I can look at them now and walk away knowing that in a couple of days those pounds will be gone. Before surgery I would have felt defeated and just ate more.

I know how you feel about the scales. Before WLS, I would just stop weighing like it was going to go away, now I know I can get it back under control if I have to!!

DH started making the cookies and had already added the the agave (what a sweety). He did 6 cookies and each got about a teaspoon of agave. I think that's probably an OK amount of agave, but adding some sweetener too would've made it better IMO.
To my surprise the cookies were a light cake consistency (yay) and I spread some butter on them to moisten them. Below are said cookies and the recipe which is courtesy of Kirmy.
one large egg
a teaspoon of baking soda
two and a bit tablespoons of almond meal/flour
a massive glug of agave nectar (about 3-4 tablespoons of more if you have a violent sweet tooth like me 6....sorry)
a full cup of peanut butter
two shakes of cinnamon
Mix them together then wet you hands and roll them into balls and stick them on a cookie tray and stick it in a medium over for 10mins. Let them cool for a bit on the tray as they are quite squishy at first then cool them on a rack to harden up.
