Here's our first blog on losing weight. I hope this helps us succeed!! :-)
Here's my plan:
follow the food pyramid
start walking next week
Not too complicated so far! Ha, ha...
I'm having dinner with my family tonight, and Becky told me she bought ribeye. I also met Dad for b'fast at one of my favorite restaurants. Knowing I was going to want to save all my protein portions for the yummy steak, I had granola, fruit and an English muffin for b'fast. For lunch I was equally disciplined and had 2 tortillas filled with homemade coleslaw of cabbage, carrot and red pepper. It was actually quite yummy! If I still get hungry this afternoon, I have some milk portions leftover and can have some chocolate milk or yogurt. Yeah! A successful day of choices! Good for me!
You asked me about a lowfat salad dressing/vinaigrette. Short answer: no. I try to just use as little as possible - the old Weight Watcher's trick of dipping your fork into the dressing really works! I have heard, however, that several ladies I know really like those new spray salad dressing. Wait, I'm wrong. Ken's Steakhouse (can you buy that brand?) has a delicious, low-fat or fat-free raspberry pecan vinaigrette. It is very good!
Good luck! Write soon!
