Thursday morning I was going to spend some time with Whitney but she had a class till 10:30, so I had time for conteninental breakfast at my hotel. The only thing they had that I was allowed to have was some sausage patties and egg patties. Which would have been great if they were good, but oh well. Still had a little time before she got out of class so I went to Big Lots and bought the Jillian Michaels WII game. FYI it's pretty good.
Whitney & I went Dr Bizer's Value Vision & I had an exam for contacts & Whitney got some glasses. By the time we were through we went to a late lunch at Ryans. I had a salad, roast, cabbage & smoked sausage, baked chicken and green beans. How I handle dessert at those places is I get the sugar free jello then anything else that looks tempting I get a tiny bit of each one on my place. Not a whole piece or even a whole spoonfull but just enough for a taste. Anyway, that satisfied me pretty much for the whole night. I think I did have some sugar free candy & some coffee later.
Friday we had school for the first time that week. Had eggs & bacon for breakfast. Then at lunch, they had wienerwinks. I got one & took the bun off and and a little bit of a salad. That night we had some company and Darrell got a Hot & ready pepperoni pizza. I ate the top off of 1 piece without any crust, and then a slice of ham, rolled around a piece of swiss cheese and a little mayo.
Saturday, eggs & bacon for breakfast again. I got up late so it was more like lunch. So I didn't have anything again till suppertime. I got some baked chicken at Kroger and fixed some canned green beans in the microwave with a slice of bacon.
Today I woke up earlier and had bacon & eggs again for breakfast. For lunch I had a hamburger on oopsie rolls and a little bit of salad. For supper, I made some soup that I divided up into 7 servings, I ate one for supper, darrell ate one, am taking one for lunch tomorrow & freezing the rest.
I made a few things today to use later, that I'll post the recipes.
My vegetable beef soup
- browned hamburger
- 1 large can (or 2 small cans) whole tomatoes
- 1 medium onion halved, then sliced sideways
- about 3 stalks of celery sliced thin
- about 1 cup chopped cabbage
I just put it all in a big pot with some water & cook the daylights out of it. LOL
So Darrell can have some thousand island dressing, I made him some. Just took some mayo, some low sugar ketchup, some pickle relish, and a packet of splenda. Tomorrow for lunch, he is going to take some ground hamburger, chedder cheese, nuke it a couple seconds, then take some lettuce and a little of the thousand island dressing and it's supposed to tase like a big mac.
I know tomorrow night we are having steaks. I wanted to make some green bean casserole but store bought cream of mushroom soup has too many carbs so I made some.
- 4 button mushrooms chopped finely
- tbs butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 tsp garlic salt
- salt & pepper to taste
Saute the mushrooms in butter. Stir in heavy cream garlic salt & pepper simmer till it reduces and covers the back of a spoon. Then I took 1 can of french green beans & mixed them into the "soup". I put in a casserole dish to bake tomorrow. I will either put pork rinds or a little bit of fried onions on top. Here is a picture of the beans before I bake it.
