Menus and Miles Monday Sept. 18th

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 Period.

I feel I need to repeat this: I am a FIRM believer in Good Whey Protein Drinks!!!!! It is sooooo much harder to do Maintenance without them!

Morning LW's!!!! What a looooong weekend!! SIL had a hernia repaired and 2 DD's had to work all weekend so we had 5 of the grandkids ages 2 to 9 and I also Trimmed all of my Rose/flower bushes. I had to come to work to get some rest....LOL!!!!!

I never thought to mix SF jello with Cottage Cheese. I'm just so used to "routine" foods I never think of mixing things up a bit.

Sounds Good!

For what ever reason, I couldn't face my plain cottage cheese that morning! Usually I like it fine plain but I'm trying to mix things up some anyway! I'm loving the fruit protein powders mixed into cottage cheese, it tastes like dessert!

If I'd had 5 at the same time, you'd have to commit me or post bail. o_0

hahaha....that's the norm for us!! They play soooo good together the majority of the time...BUT...when they get tired things can EXPLODE!! I don't know how DH did it all summer long. I can't see myself retiring until they get a few years older.

I haven't had an English Muffin for such a long time! When I go down the bread isle I consider buying a pack sometimes but I know I can't stop at one so I fight the battle and continue walking.

Sounds good!!
