In my world anyway! How is everyone’s week going? I tried this new thing this morning…stepping on the scale at home rather than waiting for weigh in day…I am not sure I liked it and nearly had to go out in the back yard and retrieve the scale, because that is where it ALMOST ended up!!! Let’s just hope that it just zero’s out different than my happy little WW scale at the meeting place does!! I am really wanting to make the 40lb mark tomorrow, but I am almost afraid that would entail getting on the treadmill tonight after work and just staying on their continuously until bedtime, AND THEN AGAIN WHEN MY ALARM GOES OFF IN THE MORNING UNTIL IT IS TIME TO SHOWER FOR WORK!! I have everything crossed that is humanly possible…and then some!! Send me some good thoughts, mojo, karma, prayers etc, please!
Haven’t tried this yet but it sounds yummy to me, although a little garlic and onion would go a long way in my book baby!
