Well last nite I didnt go to the store, I dug out some broccoli which I steamed and added Sesame Ginger dressing and had low sodium ham sandwich. I dont have kids so Im lucky. Mostly, I only stock what I am going to eat in my fridge. If you get the munchies at my house, you are in trouble. The problem is that I eat out all the time and with my hip I dont exercise enough.
I cheated like mad at lunch today. It was evil (roast beef with blue cheese on some ciabatta plus real kettle potato chips) but I could not help it. I was going out with a friend to one of my favorite sandwich shops and it was my turn to buy. I wasnt going to buy him something mouth-watering and buy myself a veggie wrap. Im not eating dinner so maybe it will even out.

I dont cook so my broccoli casserole is some frozen thing, nothing exciting but it's 330 a serving and I had a serving and a half yesterday (500 calories) and have the same amount leftover.

I check this everyday and it is really encouraging to see how everyone is doing and it also keeps me eating healthier with very positive results. I feel that I have some accountability to here without the stress if that makes any sense. Really glad that I joined in on the challenge. I plan on keeping up with the healthier eating until I am where I should be which I haven't seen in decades. Thanks for all the helpful hints and recipes and joking. :-D Good luck to everyone with your progress.

Trying to lose weight with WW. Had lost 25 pounds but this summer I have put on 4. I seem to lose it, gain it and lose it again. I am camping here with a group now and it seems all is centered around food.
I fell into a trap while playing cards this evening, someone asked me if we should have cinnamon rolls for the group. I said that would be fine as I would have already had my breakfast by then, 9AM, she gave me the rolls and said she did not have pan to bake them in. One of the other gals offered her their pan and of course she already had me!!!!
I also have a WW blackberry cobbler to make tomorrow and a meat loaf. Both will require use of the convection oven and the air is running like crazy because it is so hot.
Live and learn, next time I will tell her I don't care what you do as I do not eat them anyway.
Sorry to vent on your board.
