I cooked dinner tonight and it kicked ass! I rarely cook. Not because I don't enjoy it or know how, but because I live alone. There are very few recipes that offer 1 serving. However, one of the things I decided to do to help my weight loss is cook dinner every night. No eating out for at least 1 month.
I found a recipe for low fat creamed spinach which is on my list of mushies. It is delicious! I also have about 4 cups of it and only managed to eat 3-4 bites. Looks like I will be freezing creamed spinach and nibbling on it forever. Low-fat Creamed Spinach I used PAM and skim milk, so the fat was reduced from what the nutritional info says.
I also had flounder. Again, only got down about half of a filet, but it felt nice to eat something with a fork for a change.
Oh! I slept through the night last night without any meds. First time since surgery. I was convinced I would be one of those people who had shoulder pain 2 years after surgery, so I couldn't be happier with this development. I am just happy in general. The scale is not moving, but today I put on the only pair of jeans that fit and they were looser!!!
I am feeling so much better today, that I actually made it through 1/2 cup of soup in one sitting. And what I decided is, I am stoked as hell for mushies.
ReplyDeleteOh the things I am planning on having (and will probably eat 4 bites of...)
