No Trans Monday
Well the car is back in the shop to have it's muffler repaired, I'm back home just waiting for the phone call for the "estimate". It will be ready later so I'll just get picked up by the courtesy van later this afternoon and then get Roanna. Been a fairly quiet weekend, went shopping, spent money, cleaned house. I finely got around to baking now, so I made some of the delicious ham and cheese scone from the cooking light magazine yesterday with Roanna's help. Then later that night, around 10ish, I decided that I wasn't gonna sleep so I made some of the low-fat-bran muffins that I used to make when I was loosing weight, I got the recipe from my Nutritionist.
Now I just gotta work on more veggies for lunch, or at least some salad. The hardest thing I found last time when I changed my eating habits, was it was fairly hard to get in all the grains and veggies that you were supposed to eat. I guess my biggest problem is that I don't like things like celery (raw), tomatoes, cucumbers, so I can't really make a salad and load up on that stuff. It's been a week so far, water only, lean(ish) meats, and the ol' staple of grilled mushrooms, onions and peppers (with some olive oil and spices). Yesterday I smoked the veggies and chicken, will some oven grilled asparagus. Not bad, the chicken was quick smoked, so it had a bit more smoke flavor than I liked, but was still good. Still got a piece left so for lunch I think I'll have a salad with onions, peppers and chicken. Gotta get those veggies in.
Well gonna go down to the gym and do some exercise for a bit.
Everyone stay safe.
