Its been over an half of a year since I had my surgery! Holy Moses! I didn’t lose that much weight this month. And frankly, I am really happy about it. My weight loss slowing is kind of a blessing. Don’t really have the funds to keep getting new pants. Speaking of new pants folks, I did have to buy a new pair, in a size 20! I haven’t been that small in 10 years. Seriously, 10 years. Its flipping crazy! Oh! My weight, 270 Lbs.
I have to admit the holidays were not the best time for me. Cookies, buckeyes, fudge, and candy can all come in bite size forms and are more than tempting. They are the defeat of me. Speaking of food I noticed that I can eat a little more than a cup at a time. That’s kinda nice.
So my only issue lately is that I need to be getting in more protein. As of late I haven’t been eating enough of it lately. Which isn’t a good thing. Sometimes, I do get a little weak when I feel don’t get in what I’m supposed to eat. And lately I’ve been bad at eating. I need to work more on eating what I should be, not just what’s easy to put on a plate. Something I probably should do is just cook up a bunch of chicken and have it on hand for lunch wraps and such. Or I could just make a HUGE pile of my chicken salad…. mmm that sounds much better. If it wasnt for the snow my trimmer butt would be a Kroger in a heartbeat getting the goods for that. As it stands I still have to head over there sometime today anyhow, I’m making beef carnitas and need some meat and such for that.
Okay, I know this sounds so odd because I am trying to lose weight but I am recently obsessed with cooking. I am really getting into it like a mad monkey goes for a pile of banana cream pie. I stalk recipe books, blogs, and cooking websites. My mouth waters at the ideas of what I can make, when I can make it, and how it will taste. Its kinda like too many dishes not enough time. By the time I find out dish that I like another pops up that I want to do.
Enough of my crazy cooking talk. I’m out. I have to email a recipe to a friend. HA!
