I have been thoroughly enjoying cooking for the past two days. Anyone who knows me well, knows that must be a joke! My friends have nicknamed me "The Angry Chef". Heehee But these recipes, while they may have quite a few ingredients, are manageable and sooooo tasty! For breakfast I had Green Eggs and Ham in honor of Dr. Seuss! It consisted of turkey ham, two fried eggs covered with a kale pesto and a side of avocado. That kept me full until about 11am (I ate at 6:30am). I had a banana for a snack (BANANA! That's a private joke....Hopefully they read my blog and get a chuckle!). I had a salad for lunch, an apple with cinnamon when I got home, and then this final dish below for dinner. Seasoned chicken thigh topped with tomato, avocado, Dijon Mustard and wrapped in lettuce. The side was a sweet potato concoction with bacon (I could do without the bacon though...too salty).
Now I know they don't look exactly like the cookbook but Erick really enjoyed the dinner. We ate at 6:30pmish and my belly is still full! THIS IS NOT A DIET!!! YOU ARE NOT MEANT TO STARVE YOURSELF! (Was that loud enough for ya?)
I am pleased with my first two days.....363 more to go!
I am praying that my body won't need to snack when I drop enough weight and my blood sugar goes back to normal. I have had too many issues with this in the past few years.
Check back soon for my first full week's results. I know I won't lose too much because I am not exercising enough. Erick and I are moving back to an apartment on Saturday; therefore, my life is consumed with getting ready for that!
"Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love" (1 John 4:8)
Good night and God Bless!
