L - 3 chicken tender strips lightly sauteed in olive oil with a dusting of flour.  Hmmm didn't feel much restriction - need to watch out for that today.

D - no idea

Vits:  yep

WAter:  doing pretty good!

For some strange reason Chicken Tenders made like that are sliders for me.  Strange because most chicken gets stuck.

Anne.

I hope the giving up the snack thing works for you.  I've found that if I don't have several snacks then I feel a little shaky and I start craving before the next meal.

DH wanted ice cream last night so I gave in and we went to to the local custard stand but they were all out of NSA so I just had 1 bite of his.

Sounds Good!

Hi Roz,

I can get hooked on sugar especially cookies pretty quickly.  We had a board meeting this afternoon so I didn't get home until around 6:45 then I had to pick blueberries.  It was 8pm before I came in the house.  Just now sitting down to watch some TV.  I just decided to skip supper and have a protein drink.

Does your DH cook?  I would have to make my DH Dinner no matter what time I got home.

Sounds Good!

He can cook some things.  We don't hardly do any cooking during the week.  He eats sandwiches, fruit and salads mostly in the summertime.  In winter I make chili & soups and he eats those.  Sometimes he just eats cereal.  It is pretty much everybody for theirselves at our house since the kids have moved out-LOL.

I can't imagine having to come home every day and cooking....
