Hi everyone , yesterday was 193.8 and today 192.4 - ate normal staples, rotisserie chicken - turkey burger from schnucks 1/2 pound - 2 sides of summer slaw ,not creamy buy more of a salad with vinegar , tomatoes, cucumbers etc - arbys gyros roast beef with a salad - 2 scoops ice cream and a handful of m&m's - I like the salty and sweet - I don't eat it everyday but it is my reward for doing well -

Last night the chef came out of me and I made stuffed peppers pizza style -

I had bratwurst in the fridge , cut them up and took casing off - I had onions there , garlic , and pizza sauce 1 jar about 10 or 12 ounces -

I cut the pepper tops off, cleaned them , put a oven pan with a water bath in the oven
If I would have had a can of tomato juice or more pizza sauce, I would of used that -
I put pizza sauce in bottom of pepper, mixed up sausage and onions and put in on top of that - I sprinkled garlic salt on top or could have put in mixture - Had oregano but didn't put it in ,I will next time , I'm putting mushrooms for sure with this mixture next time -
I baked in oven for 20 - 30 min 400, not good with this timing or measuring thing as you all well know ,
Peppers are great with anything - ham, turkey,anything -

Substitute taco sauce, barbeque sauce, soy sauce, million combinations -
Now for cheese if you want to , think about either cream cheese, mozzarolla, parmesian , provolone, the white cheeses are better for you -

I had one this morning - great
My mom, miss her, did the taco peppers and the meatloaf peppers, only she could do em this way -

Right now, life is hard, great, tough, fantastic , only as good as how much I put in, it comes back 10 fold - leaning on friends and family hard right now, pushing it - I feel spent at the end of the day and I like it that
way-

Exercise wize, I am always active at work - got up from desk for each order, question, phone call, and got up 50 times yesterday - squats -
I listen to youtube music and do my recumbent bike for a 1/2 hour to an hour, watch baseball game or races while I'm doing that - I have to make every minute count because this doesn't even include family time -

Beer not in the diet this week so far, but yuengling over the weekend and I really stay away from cheese - That is a killer for me, ice cream no prob but cheese sits on me and is very uncomfortable -

I hope everyone is well, not beating themselves up, learning, experiencing,living,having fun, working hard, looking towards the goals they want -

Thanks for the support - WHEN NOT IF - YOU CAN DO IT - GOD BLESS

Miss all you guys who started with me at that time - Keep in touch and I will also -

I see great things ahead for everyone -
Keep your chin up, don't get down, be yourself, live life, prosper -

I am very happy where I am at, I hope you get there too but be happy everyday -
