Day 66

Wow isn't it amazing how fast time goes.  Last night for employee meal they served pork roll and cheese sandwiches with french fries. Now that may sound disgusting but I used to love that! I didn't feel any urge to indulge. I knew I'd probably be hungry so around 9 I had probably 5 oz of prime NY sirloin. That probably isn't much better.  Going shopping and chopping today.  Walked on the beach and it is a beautiful day. Have a great day all. Water, Water is my goal day.

I am just learning to use my phone and all this app stuff or I would have made it closer. I must say I'm feeling a bit technologically challenged.

DINNER OUT

Imagine being on the water and eating outside on a patio SURROUNDED by hedges of hydrangeas.  OMG.  It was breathtaking!  Of course, I planned to duplicate at my home and move my hydrangeas from a spot and create this effect around my deck. In order to make it work, I will have to buy more.  I'm mulling it over.

Dinner was fantastic and I stuck to the plan I made it advance.  Broccoli rabe is OK and I don't think I'd rush to order it again.    Guess what ladies -- not a bite of bread.  I did, however, have 2 drinks and blew my points for the day and had to dig into the weekly reseve.

I'm going to have to buy Metamucil this weekend as I'm really struggling to go to the bathroom.  To the point, I'm bleeding.  I don't understand it as I'm doing mostly all the right things.

We are going to have beautiful weather today and I plan to work in the yard and walk for one hour before it gets dark.  Have a great day!

IS THE JUICE WORTH THE SQUEEZE

Definitely Yes.  I find a great thing in my bag of tricks is lemon for both the zest and the juice.  I use it on vegetables, homemade salad dressing, and in my water too.  Need 2 tools to make it easy.  Citrus Press and a scorer.  Give it a try

Today must be one of those blow-by-blow reporting days. Bought more fresh greens, including kale and arugula; orange, yellow and red peppers which I just cut up (A+ for me) and another pineapple which I also cut up (A++). Goodnight.
I shopped at Trader Joe's today. What's important to report is what I did not buy:
Cinnamon Coffee Cake, Peanut-Butter-filled pretzels, crackers, chocolate. I believe our team-blog enabled my resolve today. Thanks, team.
