Good Feeling

Tonight I saw a friend that I havn't seen for awhile.  She looked at me and said, "Wow, your melting!"   That made me feel so good!   It helps give me the motivation to keep going.

Portions

Went shopping today.
Cooking for one and counting calories can sometimes be a problem when everything you buy is packaged for families.  So I spent some time and portioned some of what I bought.

I put spaghetti sauce in half-cup containers and marked how many calories.  I then wrapped some angel hair pasta into serving with the calories.  I hope this will help.

I also put 4 crockpot chicken meals in the freezer. . . . Hawaiian Chicken.  I have decide to try each week to put a couple of crockpot meals in the freezer for this summer when maybe I won't feel like cooking.

Milestone

I'm sitting here watching TV.  Just put the crochetting down.  Thinking about how it's about time for a snack.  And then thinking, serious. . . your not hungry.  Why do I need an evening snack if I'm not hungry.  I  think I'm been so use to feeling FULL that I'm struggle with feelings of not so full and hungry.  I'm getting better at determining when I'm truly hungry.

I have now lost 30 pounds!!!!!! :-)
