Food today: breakfast 2 slices homemade whole wheat toast with homemade blackberry jam, morning snack an apple from the tree, lunch white rice topped with garden okra and tomatoes sauteed in olive oil and a sprinkle of adobo, afternoon snack a big bowl of raw cucumbers, green pepper, broccoli from the garden, dinner not sure because my husband is gonna make it. It’ll probably be grilling veggie burgers and vegetables outside, dessert homemade applesauce.

I’m trying to eat mostly food I made from scratch or grew myself lately. It helps me a lot with overeating because I won’t tear into the winter stores and all the abundant garden stuff we have is so low in calories it won’t pack any weight on me. Plus I just can’t sit up and overeat on garden corn or okra or whatever…by the time I pick, shuck, cook and eat just 4 ears of corn I’m, done, LOL.

Photos comings ASAP! I’m having issues with my phone/camera but will upload them as soon as I can. I have a lot of new pics!

Drink 120 oz water
One serving meals, seconds declined
No salt added to food
Raw veggies for snacks, raw fruit for dessert (making homemade applesauce again yum!)
Brush & floss after every meal (this is the main thing that helps me stop eating when I am full, to get up and go floss and brush my teeth. It takes that craving to stuff myself away because I no longer feel like eating with a fresh mouth)
