Another good day of eating.  I have to say I made the best dinner tonight.  I made a pot of pinto beans and then I roasted broccoli, yellow squash and ears of corn in the oven.  I will never again boil any of these vegetables and I could have totally went without the meatloaf and not even missed it.  I meant to take a picture of my plate of food before I started to eat but before I knew it I had scarved it all down.

I just finished walking 2.1 miles in 30 minutes.

Now for my goals that I set for the week:
1. Water- 85 oz
2. Sugar- not a problem today
3. Fruit- 2 servings today
4. Vegetables- at dinner
5. Carbs- stayed within limits
6. Exercise- 2.1 mil/ 30 min.
7. Soda- none
8. Fast food- none

  2. All I did was clean the corn, cut up the broccoli and squash and toss in alittle olive oil and sprinkle on whatever kind of spices you have. I had an all purpose seasoning that had salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder in it I believe. Then I roasted at 350 until tender.

  4. Very cool! It's so great that you are experimenting and finding things that you love that are also good for you.

    How did you like the plum?

  5. I actually liked the plum. I don't think it was quite ripe enough but it kind of tasted like a grape. I will definitely being eating them in the future.
