Another bad habit: when I clean up after dinner and there's "just a bite" of this or that left, I'd eat it!! I bet I had 200 more calories just cleaning the dishes-I thought maybe calories don't count when you eat them standing up. I am breaking this habit pronto.
Hope these couple of hints help--please keep posting more of yours, I've learned so much here.
Good losses ladies and hope you all have a healthy eating day!!
When you have just a bit of this or that leftover from dinner DON"T throw it out. Put it all veggies, salad, pototoes, meat what ever in a container in a few days add a beef or chicken cube to it along with water. Microwave about 5 minutes and you will have a nice cup/bowl of soup. I hate to waste anything I am a minimalist and that is how I survive on the income I receive. :-D :-D :-D
