Catching Up!

Hubby asked last night if I had blogged and I said a few times but not much which got me to thinking that I should. I just do better if I sit and write down thoughts and other such stuff. Haven't heard back from Dr. yet, hope to today. But he doesn't work on Wed so maybe not. Just feel blessed to have a Dr who is not afraid to do things different. Haven't been eating well lately. The one thing this life change did is cure my addiction to eating all the time. I tend to just not eat or forget. This is so abnormal for me. That's all my mind would think about some days so I am trying to make a concerted effort to have breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I find myself not feeling good and realize that I haven't eaten. So my feeling bad is my own darn fault! I actually had a slice of whole grain bread with peanut butter this morning so I am off to a good start. Gonna munch on some fruit in a little. Not really been trying new recipes and except for cupcakes for hubby's birthday yesterday. We've been having a lot of rice and stir fried veggies lately but today I am going to change that. It's roast night.....without the roast! lol I found some seasoning packets that seem like they would mimic beef broth so I am putting potatoes, carrots, and onions in a crock pot and cooking them like there is a roast there. Jo's been asking for green beans so there is also a packet that looks like it mimics chicken broth so I will cook the green beans with those. A little corn and tomatoes and I can't wait for dinner. Gotta fix beans sometime this week too, been to long without them. Oh yes the cupcakes, the margarita ones turned out pretty good and pretty. I had one even though the tequila was not cooked out in the icing. Probably shouldn't have. There was not that much in it but I did have a little reaction to the alcohol. Oh well guess this diet didn't help that little problem with alcohol sensitivity. The gluten free vegan not quite my cup of tea, might be if I left the flax seed out. Whew those little things leave a strong taste in food, good for you but not good for the taste buds in the amt in recipe. Might leave out next time. My next cupcake next week is red velvet. I hope it's good.
