BEANS AND EGGS!

It's been a most exciting day! I started the day with 1/4 c scrambled eggs...had 3 small shrimp for lunch...and for dinner, 4 oz of refried beans! I made these amazing cheese chips that I made by overcooking shredded cheese in the microwave. I dipped the chip into the beans and I was in Heaven! So excited! I've had some pretty good food over the last 40 years, but I think tonight might just be the highlight of all those 40 years!

I've had a great week. I've really enjoyed getting back out into classrooms and being around kiddos again! Don't get me wrong, I'm looking forward to the Winter break...but it was nice to leave the office!

I'm still walking alot...not as much as during Thanksgiving...but I am walking. I took tonight off because my Plantar Fasciatis is flaring up. I'm ok with that...I needed a  night off! :o)

So when I met with the nutritionist yesterday she asked how often I was weighing.  I told her once a day...when really, it's like twice a day.  I have been doing this weight loss thing for long enough to know that I  don't need to be on the scale once...let alone twice...a day! But seriously, if there was a chance that you weighed one thing in the morning and had lost weight by the afternoon, why WOULDN'T  you weigh twice  a day!!  So, she says I need to only weigh once a week...and eventually once a month. I laughed at her.  Now get this visual...cute little Meghan the nutritionist who looks like she ran to work and doesn't have a dimple on her body, besides that cute one on her cheek...is telling me...ME...how much to weigh...or not weigh! Meghan, Meghan, Meghan.  Funny girl.  So, I agreed with Meghan and assured her I'd stay off the scale, but...but...I weighed this evening (because I can) and weigh 3 lbs less than I did this morning! See, Meghan, had I not weighed I wouldn't have known! Just saying.  Now I can go to bed a food eating, 3 lbs lighter weighing, fully satisfied happy girl!
