I haven't been on again....though I AM keeping at it. I just can't seem to get here as often as I'd like. I lost 1.2 lbs this week. Seems like I always have one week that I do a smaller loss, followed by a bigger one. Well, it doesn't matter either way, big or small, as long as it's going in the right direction. I had zucchini several times this week. I love cooking it with onions, green and red peppers, and tomatoes with some Italian seasonings, spaghetti sauce and then adding a little mozzarella cheese and just a teaspoon of parmesan cheese....so good. Fresh zucchini is one of my favorites. Tonight we're having chicken, fresh green beans, and rice. I haven't cooked much for my hubby this week (well, we had taco salad twice - his favorite), and a friend gave us the green beans from her garden yesterday. I don't want to waste them.

We're headed out on vacation next month and I've been planning things in my head so I can keep on track. Luckily, it's at a timeshare my in-laws have so it won't cost us anything to stay. And there's a full kitchen so I can do a little of my own cooking. I've also had "the talk" with my hubby....lol. I know we'll be eating out often, but I told him he has to go along with me on where we eat sometimes. It can't be Taco Bell all the time....(again, his favorite). ;) We'll be going shopping for groceries once we get there so I will have plenty of fresh vegetables and fruit, yogurt, cottage cheese, and a few things to cook that won't take me away from my good eating. I don't look to lose while we're gone, but I don't want to gain either. I just want to stay on track as much as possible. Hope everyone is having a great week. Keep at it! Dee
