Good morning botts

I just returned from a wonderful vacation in Europe.  They walk and bike a lot and eat more natural and delicious food than we do.  Mom and pop cafes serve homemade meals from scratch.  I need to learn from them.  

On Wed. I bought a 22 lb. turkey for 69c a pound.  My husband and I were alone and exhausted on Thanksgiving and started in on our big bird.  I plan on using roast turkey to jump start my diet this coming week.  I weighed 211 lbs. this morning (oh well).  I will get back to the swim and bike workout at my gym.  There is always something to clean around the house for exercise too.  I made my low fat veggie soup and bought salad fixings and fruit.  I have my Santa Fe tortillas and 80 cal. Greek yogurt. I will make my fat free/sugar free cheesecake today.  It is time for me to get healthy again. My goal was to get under 200 lbs. this year. 36 days left this year...I will try!  I hope some of you can join me too. Tri

Good to see you posting again. 

Have fun.. And 36 days is a lot. That is 5 weeks. If nothing else - 1 lbs a week should be doable. Even on holidays. Or no regain. 

One day at a time . one meal at a time.
