I was completely well today! How did I know this? I was hungry! I took time today to plan my meals and measure and weigh all the ingredients. I really enjoyed my salad, as I added something different to it. 6 beautiful olives!

I spent the morning making the WW recipe for Chili. I made a triple batch because my husband loves it. I'll post that recipe tomorrow. After that was done I froze 5 quarts of it to use as last minute meals.

Then I cooked a chicken for our dinner. Tomorrow I'll be making Italian Wedding Soup. I'm making a triple batch of that too, and then I will freeze meal size portions. I love that recipe and I tend to eat it more than my husband would like. Thus the chili for him and the soup for me.

Tomorrow is weigh in day and I really hope I have done well. Despite the fact that I was feeling badly over the weekend, I did try to stay on course with my eating and did not allow myself my usual comfort food of cinnamon toast.

I did finally feel well enough for some activity today. I worked pulling up plants in my dying garden. I worked for half an hour pulling weeds and plants and putting them in the compost heap.

I hope this week has helped someone. I wonder if I should do it one more week or not. Let me know what you think.
