Good morning,all. I won't join the challenge this time,as we have a pretty iffy sched this month.Might visit family in Fl, might not.If we fly,the puter stays home.
I'm having to learn what works for me about losing weight.
Things I'm working on.
Can't eat more on wk ends.
Have to eat between 1200-1400 cals every day.
This is a life long event.I can & I will eat more healthy.
Drinking more water is good.

Someone mentioned having to eat at a party.A few yrs ago,a friend lost a whole lot of wt & her stock ans in such a situation was "Sorry,I've developed an allergy" to whatever food they were pushing on her.She felt that some ppl really are food pushers....they want to see everyone eating a lot.Anyway,she's kept it off for nearly 10 yrs.

Here's a recipe I've used for a long time.If I have berries to sprinkle on, I omit the raisins.


BAKED OATMEAL-LOW FAT

3 cups Oatmeal
1/2 cup SF applesauce
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
2 beaten eggs(or egg whites)
1 cup skim milk
1/2 tsp salt,
2 tsp baking powder
1 level tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup rasins.

Heat oven to 350
Mix all ingredients, pour in sprayed cake pan and bake for 20-30 min
