Respect, peoples.

I eat a lot, in a haphazard and unplanned way. And my weight has crept up, by two pounds in two weeks of holidays. Hospitality of relatives, mainly.

I'm going for a longish walk this afternoon.

And just arrived in the post today: The Low-Cholesterol Cookbook.

That's an all-time low (adult) weight - woo-hoo!

McT -- you can do it! Much confidence in you!

And Mac - w00p!

Big WOOP for Mac!

and a hi to McT..


yesterday -

coffee/dab of half and half
brownie with a lot of nuts

saag paneer, homemade - it came out much better this attempt (I had to throw out the last one it was so strong tasting), will play with recipe some more (spinach, a little tomato puree, fresh ginger, spices like cumin and chile, a little canola and smidge of butter, some fresh ricotta chunks, a little half and half). I'm trying to get away from the packaged saag or palak paneer, which has approaching a whole day's worth of salt in one packet... but is addictive to me.

2 bowls of minestra italiana -
1 chopped and slow sauteed yellow onion, one chopped sauteed scallion (canola)
1/4 can of chopped tomatoes with juice, 1/2 drained and rinsed can of small white beans
lots of water
1 fat tbs of diced jalapeno chiles
a heap of diced marinated sweet red pepper
something around 1/4 lb thin spaghetti, in pieces
2 hot italian fresh pork sausages, in chunks
bunch of dried oregano, bunch of torn basil from the garden
about 3/4 cup green peas
no salt but what had been in that canned stuff, or maybe in the sausages
(lots left over)

Oh, and a glass of marsala on ice and a few glasses of gerolsteiner

YEEEEEAAHaw...Mac!

Yesterday
B: Grapefruit, toast, coffee
E: ran six point three miles briskly
S: one banana
L: Diet coke, tuna on salad, cookie
E: 50 crunches on the machine at the gym
D: Turkey wrap, one glass of wine
411/175.3/-25.4
Let's see if I can stick with this .... .

We're off to the Cape for a few days. I'll have the laptop and can check #s, and will try to post. Will return on Sunday, which will be a busy day of getting back into the routine.
