yesterday I ate low carb and low calorie, I ate around 80 grams of carbs and about 1500 calories. Plus I did a 5 mile Leslie video, and I used 3 pound weights in each hand. I feel good and I am going to try to go a little more on the low carb veggies today. I have noticed that the veggies I love the most are lower in carbs AND calories. Dh bought some brussel sprouts for me yesterday- His way of saying he was sorry for the argument we had over the weekend. He is such a strong silent type and while he says he is sorry, he wants to buy me something to. He used to buy me chocolates, now he buys a bag of my favorite veggies. LOL He brought in the bag and took the bag of brussel sprouts out and sounding like a bashful boy said "I bought this for you" I love brussel sprouts and I think I will do them like Josie likes them but instead of using butter I thinkI will use butter flavor pan spray. and pan fry them. I need to look up the carbs and see how many I can eat without going too far over my set limits.
I am glad grandson is not a big sweets eater. He love cheese sticks, and devilled eggs, and trix cereal and mini wheats for snacks. That keeps me from seeing and wanting the candy or cookies that most children want.
I don't know when grandson and dd will go home. Not only is her air not working but the house needs to be funigated. She saw one of the huge roaches in her house and that is one thing she can not stand. She is afraid of them. So if it is sprayed they all need to stay out of the house at least several hours.
This is the way I feel, I will always be their mother and my heart, my lap and my house will always be available to them if they need me. Just as God is always there for His children.
Matthew 7:9-11
King James Version (KJV)
9Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
10Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
11If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
Have a great day, be safe
God bless
Great job getting back on the Highway to Thin. I'm doing pretty well w/ my low-carb attempt, too.
ReplyDeleteSo nice that things are back to being happy at your house. :)

I think you're going to love those brussels sprouts, Joy. I just slice them in half or quarter them, and they get a little crunch on them and are so good! How sweet of your dh to think of you and respect you the way he does. It sounds like he sincerely tries to help you. You are blessed!
ReplyDeleteGod help your dd and grandson. Bugs are so bad in the south in the summer; it's something I dread. Do you eat egglplant? I've heard it's low carb but haven't looked into it much. I need to find more vegetables to eat besides sprouts. They're good but getting old!
Love you, and God bless!
