Zucchini Days
I haven’t written in here for awhile, but I am losing weight! I’ve been mostly eating raw veggies and fruit. I eat do eat carbs like cereal and bread to keep me from raiding the pantries and fridge. I know that I can make it if I had to without breakfast-but I do eat a “brunch” right now, since I’m eating late. I have bananas on cereal, herbal tea with toast, and then avacodos and celery. By three oclock, I drink Mona Vie and eat nuts and a plum. By evenings…I’m fixing dinner, so I eat a green salad and have calcium by eating a yogurt.
Someone gave us some zuchini this week-so I’m making zuchine bread (cake-in a bundt pan). I found a recipe on-line. I love to shred raw zuchini 
Feels and tastes really healthy!

Tuesday and Wednesday
Okay- all day yesterday, I must have been craving protein…because I ate tuna with mayo and sweet relish! Who knows why I wanted tuna so bad-but it was not on the schedule for menus! But, I managed to go grocery shopping and grab more fresh fruit and dark green veggies.
Today, I had fresh food available…so I ate a banana for breakfast and a green salad for lunch. Cherries, blueberries and strawberries for snacktime and a southwestern rice and corn for dinner. The kids don’t even know I steamed zuccini and blended it into the rice and corn! Sneeky or what?! Ha!

Saturday and Sunday
I will admit that sugar gets the best of me-EVERY TIME!!! I do so great eating healthy…and then my family and I crave carbs and sugar. Even though I intend to eat healthy, I second-naturely grab food that makes me calm and feel GOOD. First thing I want on Saturday morning, was EAT a bowl of cereal…granola. Nothing wrong with that-just not a whole food. I’m trying to only eat fresh fruits and veggies. So, I did eat plums and apricots next! But, I had bought a cake mix for my daughter to make a pineapple upside-down cake too. She grabbed that box and whipped out a fabulous dessert-before I could run and hide. So I ate a large square, yummy piece! MMMmmmm! It was sooo devine-heavenly! Guilt set in and I had to eat salad next. For the rest of the evening- I ate carrots.
Today, Sunday…I sat and watched Donny Osmond sing with the Tabernacle Choir for Pioneer Day! To comfort myself, that I didn’t get to go up to this concert- I drank a Pepsi and ate a bowl of cherries. For lunch, we all ate salad. When we came home from church- I ate a PB and J sandwhich…I think it’s because I made one for Jaden. (It smelled so good!) For dinner, I had an avacodo with a handful of cornships. Not too healthy-I know. But tomorrow is Monday-I can go shopping for fresh food again!

Happy Pioneer Day-July 24
Here in Utah, we celebrate Pioneer Day every July 24th. I started mine with a pancake with bananas and orange juice! Then I ate a dark green salad with celery, tomatoes, avocados and peas for lunch. For dinner, I had plums and grapes. My only snack was on Hershey cordial cherry Kiss!
Today’s Friday-the 25th, I have to go and usher a mantinee at the Festival. But I had a banana and plum for breakfast. (I also drank Monavie). It gives me an extra boost before lunch time. It’s now 12:19pm and I’ve eaten a dark green salad with the same toppings as yesterday. My thoughts for the day are: I feel so happy! I really do feel like I can do anything I have more energy and want to do MORE today

Wednesday Morning…
I’m so excited about my food blog, that I ate breakfast and ran downstairs to post my thoughts on food this morning! I cut up a pineapple and served it for breakfast, and then I also added fresh cherries and I drank fresh squeezed orange-juice. Then I drank a whole glass of water…and I feel really full. I only had one slice of my pineapple-but it fills you up fast. I’m trying to eat as much raw, whole foods as possible today.

I like this…
I’m going to use this blog as a food journal. My wedding picture I’ve posted, is to show one day in my life when I was 110 lbs. I felt great and I looked fantastic! This is a real eye-opener for me to see just what I put in my mouth…and the whole world can watch Life’s experiences change

My New Blog
Hello Everyone-
I’m experimenting with a whole new blog style right now. I like the tool-bar that word-press has here, and I like the widgets I can add too (like the calender). My other blog never created a full tool bar…so that when I made posts with pictures, the code came up-but not the photo. I could never move them around and add text. The whole post was a guessing game! I wondered just what the page would hold-size and style. So now, I’m testing this out to see just how much control I have.
