week 31 day 2

well the cake is gone, imagine that LOL, I had only 2 slices. It was a layer of pastry dough, a layer of peaches, a layer of vanille pudding cooked with the peach juice and a layer of meringue with sour cream
Sounds weird but was very good. The pudding layer was a little too soft

today bean and ham soup, great northern beans ( why are the called that?? They are very small, nothing "great" )
plus pizza

Elkhound LOL I don't eat breakfast or supper or snacks, or even popcorn ! Just a few pieces of cake here and there . If I ate all those meals I would probably be 50 lbs overweight not 10 !!

no hiking with dog today either, it is even colder than yesterday. Is this how a new ice age starts?

I sure hope not....

mini ice age...its called real winter....lord help us....yall thought i was being silly when i said come on april 1st...i wont tell you about snow storm in mid april on my 6 inch tall corn i had decided to plant once to see if i could sneak it in extra early..it turned black but regrew...it hit 13ft or 17ft...ears were 8ft off the ground..hickory cane corn...it was 87 or 88

I'm ready for some milder real winter. It's crazy when below zero is so bad and you have to be out in it, so when it's only 10 above it feels so much nicer. Or when the sun is out but it's not warm at all.
OK, realize it's the diet thread. But you guys are talking cake. I made banana choc chip bread and choc chip cookies and eating too much and really, really , really need to diet, but not in the mood to.

I am not in the mood to diet either LOL
I started this thread mostly to keep track, and it's working. Overall I am around 10-15 lbs less ( changes daily a little) from when I started this, so that's good!
Plus I can go back and look at what I cooked

And I was bad yesterday, I bought a cheap bag of walmart tortilla chips and had some yesterday evening. I was going to make nachos out of them, but they are too thin. It would be a soggy mess . I should have known better than to buy them grrrrrr , bag is only half full too . Man, walmart is sure making things more and more crappy! I will soon stop buying ANY great values stuff if this keeps up!!

I stopped buying those. I am now buying an Aldi blue corn organic tortilla chip, but they also have the same in multigrain. They hold up well, and I like the ingredients in them.

Chips are really not on my diet period LOL, ANY chips, I was just being stupid and bad . If I don't buy them, they are not here to eat them. And nachos is total junk anyway. Oh well, gone now, and not going to be replaced

I took Otto for a short hike and almost slipped on the ice a few times, north side of the mountain has not melted one bit
