Since my double knee cap surgery I have put on a few unwanted pounds! This is especially disheartening because over the last 18 months I have lost 90 pounds!
Lots of yummy meals from friends, Christmas goodies and inactivity have not been good to me... and let's not even get into lack of self control!
But now that I am somewhat feeling better, and am going out for my first test drive by myself today since surgery... I'm getting right back on track and continuing my lo-carb lifestyle...
Hopefully, I'll be able to knock off those extra pounds in a few weeks. I just may dip my toes back into the pool this week too. Swimming is my favorite activity and I try to get in the pool 3-4 times a week.
Now, here's what's on the menu this week...
MONDAY
Black Raspberry, Red Onion and Butter Cup Lettuce with CHAMPAGNE VINAIGRETTE
TUESDAY
WEDNESDAY
(cooked in a cast iron pan)
THRUSDAY
Rice
FRIDAY
Fixins'
SATURDAY
Over Spaghetti
SUNDAY~ SLOW COOKER DAY
Crusty Bread and Cheese
OTHER DISHES ON THE MENU THIS WEEK...
Remember to...
Yvonne, you truly inspire me to reinvent the rooms in our home, to cook and eat out less, and most of all, to continue to have strong faith in The Lord. A Blessed New Year to you and your family from us here in wet, cold Ohio.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't have said it better than Sandy myself...faith, family, food (home management) Thank you for your continuing inspiration...

on eating low carb as I need to loose some weight in 2013.

with your knees.

Somehow I missed your knee surgery, but I'm glad to hear you are coming along. It just takes time to get past these inconveniences. Take care and happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteYvonne, sorry to hear about the surgery, but they've gotten so good at these things I'm sure you will be speeding around soon. Hope the solo outing went well! Wishing you all best for a healthy, happy and prosperous New Year and thank you for all the wonderful inspiration in 2013~
ReplyDeleteI know how hard it was to lose those 90 lbs. I have done that and gained them back over the years. I am sure now that you can exercise again you will get back on track. Wishing you a very healthy 2014!
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to wish you a Happy New Year and thanks for your wonderful blog. I enjoy it daily.
