It's been a good week for veggie eating. Monday I had a dentist appointment and my face was numb for half the day. Jamba Juice to the rescue! I had a Greens with added ginger smoothie. When my face woke up I had a veggie dog... plain. Dinner was a cabbage from the garden with… Continue reading Veggies and more veggies

A Warrior is Persistent
So... this week I am visiting one of my daughters and her family, and my son who lives with them. I am not necessarily the adventure type. I don't "go on vacation." When I travel away from my home, I go to be with and to help family. I am just not the run-around-the-countryside kind… Continue reading A Warrior is Persistent
Keeping it Healthy… almost?
Monday plant eating opened with some of the best black berries I have ever eaten. I got them at the farmer's market. I think they called them triple berries. Whatever they are called, they were so juicy and sweet. I ate 2 boxes. That led to my down fall of eating a few potato chips.… Continue reading Keeping it Healthy… almost?
Veggie Life on the Run
It's been a good week of eating a plant based diet. The thing is, the garden, the farmer's market and the farmer's co-op makes it so easy! The only real complication is time... time to prepare and time to chew. It seriously takes more time to chew fresh, raw plants, then it does to chew… Continue reading Veggie Life on the Run
Having Willpower
Something I have heard nearly all my life is that fat people don't have the willpower to loose weight. Fat people would be skinny people if they exercised willpower. Well... you are are wrong. I have a great amount of willpower. I work hard. I will myself through days that most people couldn't even begin… Continue reading Having Willpower
Back to Picture Journaling My Food.
I am so excited my husband was able to fix the camera on my iPhone. Now I can take pictures of my food and truly report what it is I am consuming. I haven't gotten on a scale, but the most exciting thing happened today. I put on some shorts I haven't worn for a… Continue reading Back to Picture Journaling My Food.
Lovin’ the Farmer’s Market
Okay... still no camera. I can't record my meals. However, I am still doing well enough. Still eating salads. Still eating fruits. My favorites are the strawberries and raspberries from my own garden. I've done better with reducing pastas and breads this week. Dairy is still reasonable. I only had a light Greek yogurt here… Continue reading Lovin’ the Farmer’s Market
This is Not a Diet
Sadly, there is still no camera to record my eating and to keep me in check. On the up side, I have succeeded in continuing to eat a plant based diet. I did have one exception this past week when I went to dinner with my good friend. I ate Eggplant Parmesan. It was the… Continue reading This is Not a Diet
Not the Wisest Choices
I am still unable to take a picture and record what I ate. I have also found that a small lack in accountability has given me licence to "cheat." For example, we went to the Tillamook cheese factory and bought my daughter squeaky cheese. I love squeaky cheese. I ate some. I did pay for… Continue reading Not the Wisest Choices
My End of Dieting
So... my fall last week broke the camera on my phone. I am now left with nothing to visually record my success and meals, at least for further notice. I can say that I have been good about eating salads for lunch and something veggie like for dinner. It was a busy week, so I… Continue reading My End of Dieting
