The New Deal. Again.

2 cups water
1 cup oatmeal, plain
2 egg whites
1 cup milk

1 cup water
1 small apple

2 cups water
2 cups broccoli
4 oz lean meat (chicken/fish)

1 cup water
1 small apple

2 cups water
2 cups broccoli
4 oz lean meat (chicken/fish)

If you see me eating anything that is not on this list for the next 7 days, pin me down and make me give it back.

My doctor gave me this diet to get headed in the right direction. Julie, M, and Melanie are with me….anyone else wanna have fun too? 

Maybe fun is not the right word.

  3. Yeah, those egg whites give me the heeby-jeebies too, but I'm going to do my best to work into them! And I'm gonna be a rebel and eat some green beans with my broccoli! Won't the variety be fun?!

  5. If you mix the oatmeal and egg whites in a Magic Bullet or blender then fry it, it makes an edible pancake. Good luck, 7 days isn't to long!

  6. This actually sounds fun to me. I love group projects such as diet and exercise. But I think my doctor would not be impressed with any further weight loss at this point in my life. I like your weight loss program much better than this one called grief, which I'm currently on.
    It actually sounds very doable. YOU GO GIRL. Love your enthusiasm.

  7. I have never hear of this diet. Why all the broccoli? Just curious. How long do you do this? Is it an on for a week, off for a week? It seems so manageable. Let us know!

  8. I won't be following your plan, but I do support you. We can give each other encouragement (I could use some right now too). I need to get back to eating something close to your plan. I have a harder time with maintanance than losing it. Today I ate ice cream straight from the carton, pizza for supper and skipped the gym. Not good. Tomorrow will be better.
    You can do this!

Oh happy day, Less question mark!

As a follow up to yesterday's post, I got word today that we will NOT be assigned to the new guy, but we will have an experienced coordinator after all. I feel SO much better. I also learned some other info today that made me think I still have some kinks to work out, so I'll be taking care of that this next week. I'll be SO glad when this transition/IEP stuff is behind us. I want to do the very best I can, but there's part of me who wants to just hide and let it all happen without me.

31 for 21: What to say

I have encountered plenty of people who ask "How old is she?" when Braska and I are out together here and there. They always guess her age about 5 months younger than she is, but that's ok, since that's what size she is. I have said several times that I can imagine it will bother me a bit more, although still not a huge deal, when she turns one next month and I see their reaction to that, as she still is in her car seat/carrier when we're in a restaurant or in a store since she doesn't sit up. Today, I met some friends for brunch. The waitress was a nice enough, very young girl, and she started cooing at Braska right away. That's nice. I don't mind, Braska likes the attention, and I'm proud of my cutie. The waitress asked her age, and I told her 11 months. She then said, "But she's not walking yet?" as she noticed that she was up to the table in her car seat/carrier. I just agreed and said, "Not yet." She said she h

Was there a line??

I assume that you went to vote, either today or earlier if possible. I expect that of you, know that straight up. How long did you wait in line?? And throw in the state you voted in, just for fun. I'm really curious if all areas have a big wait or if it's just the more congested ones. I voted Friday absentee/in person, and we waited about 15 mins or so. It moved VERY fast for a big line. There's just one place in our very populated county to do the absentee/in person voting, and it wasn't bad at all for what I thought it might be. If you haven't, GO VOTE people... again, please just know what you're voting for, either way. You may just have to live with your choice. God Bless America!!
