Finding Myself Friday, January 15th

This week I lost the weight that I gained is gone and took another 2 pounds with it. I lost a total of 3.8 pounds this week and a total since the new plan’s introduction of 6.8 pounds. Overall, I really like this plan and am making it work for me. This is not always easy and it isn’t going to be, but I am going to figure out how to make it work for me.

This week I am going to work on trying to focus on doing meatless meals. I have found something that I really enjoy at the Greek restaurant that is meatless. It is a veggie pita (bell pepper, onion, tomatoes) with hummus. It’s super tasty and I’m thinking I can figure out how to make this for myself along with some other tasty no meat options. I’ve looked at some pinwheels that I can whip up for the kids/hubby and me and some veggie wraps. I'm hoping to make it a good week again and hoping to continue these "meatless" habits into other meals each week.

My step goal will hopefully increase again this week. So far, I have hit it everyday this week and plan on hitting it today as well. I suspect I will hit 5,000 steps next week for my daily goal. I know I can do it. I hope y'all are moving forward with your goals. Have a fabulous weekend!

What's Cooking Wednesday, May 7, 2025

I hesitate to even call this a recipe. I have been making this super easy, but versatile recipe for years. My ex-grandmother-in-law made hers spicier, but for my young one (at the time I started making this) wasn't a fan of spicy foods. So I created a cheeseburger variety of the meat pie. It's simply Grands biscuits, hamburger meat and cheese. I believe she used the standard biscuit, but I have been using Grands for years. You can absolutely change this up to use different ingredients, but it's a family favorite so I haven't changed it much. I may do a different variety soon to bring to you!

Meal Plan (and make a plan) Monday, April 27, 2025

Happy Monday, friends! I hope you are looking forward to a good week! It's time again to share my meal plan for the week. I suspect breakfasts will be fend for ourselves. Last week, I think we all ate a lot of cereal. Lunches this week will likely be chicken salad and a pasta meal. I, unfortunately, got hit with a round of vertigo at the end of last week that is wrecking havoc on my ability to move too much and it stinks. I will be going back to what the allergy doctor suggested a couple of years ago...using my daily oral meds (Xyzal and Mucinex), as well as nasal rinse twice a day and nasal allergy spray. While I know that vertigo for everyone isn't caused by the fluid in the ears, it seems to be for me most times when I've had it. It's miserable when I can't even sit up without feeling nauseous. Anyway, for that reason, our meals for the week are going to be relatively easy and may even be repeats of meals I have had on the plan th...
