wait weight

This morning I actually dared weigh myself. Lately (as in this summer), I have been eating and drinking with very little regard for what it is other than pleasure and I have noticed areas of my body becoming larger and my clothes becoming tighter. The weight didnt' wait. So, according to the doctor like scale we have at the clinic, I weigh 148 pounds. I weighed myself for the sole purpose of being able to see how much weight I lose. I have put myself on a very strict diet, which has some leeway given my activity level. (leeway and strict in the same sentence, hmmm.... - but adding a few ounces of veggies or an extra piece or two of fruit is allowable). So far so good (granted it is day 1). I don't know what the goal is other than I feel better in my clothes. I should end up a bit healthier too. I was going to do the Master Cleanse again. But this seemed much healthier both physically and mentally. It is 3.5 oz of veggies 2x a day, 3.5 oz of fish 2x a day and 3.5 oz of fruit 2x a day. And lots of water and tea. I am back on a bit of caffiene, but very rarely. We shall see how this goes. If I need more fruit and/or veggies so I don't bite anyones head off, I think that is completely okay. The hard part is prep and choices, where in the master cleanse there are no choices.

Tales of an incompetent chef

So... yesterday I was so very proud of myself. I bought myself a hand mixer (the kind you use right in the pot) AND I made broccoli/cauliflower soup. It was pretty good. It needed a little pepper, which is easy enough to add.
Then, today, I went to go get myself some soup for lunch and put the rest in the fridge (I had left it on the stove last night).
Okay, it was not good anymore as I had put a lot of milk in it so it was creamy. Now, I know you don't leave milk out, and yet... this was soup. So due to procrastination, I wasted of a whole pot of soup. I definitely learned my lesson. Immediately put left overs away. Slowly, I am finding more and more reasons not to procrastinate.
