I spent the better part of two hours preparing my meals for the rest of the week. Hubby found some of the weight watchers chicken patties for supper cheap. They are made with chicken breast, a bit of salt and rosemary. The unfortunate thing is that they are four ounces, which is 113 grams. I went a little over on my protein before and I was okay; however, if I see problems, I will definitely shave off pieces in the future (assuming I use them again).
I also had a small package of stew meat that I sauteed for dinners. One small package evenly way provided four meals and a little leftover. My girls tried the leftovers and said it was very good. I will have to find more for them to eat for a meal of their own, this week. Their dinner tonight was pretty healthy: weight watchers chicken patty, brown rice and steamed vegetables. The youngest had blueberries for dessert. If I can keep them on track, they'll be some pretty healthy kids.
Here's the damage from today:
It was incredibly difficult to eat my dinner, especially after all the cooking. I was thinking, "Wow, this would be enough tonight; my little meal." Then I remembered, "Dang it! I gotta go out and get my "shovel-it-in" dinner." The wonderful things I love and no desire to eat them.
Tomorrow is the big day and I'm ready for it. I'm praying for strength and perseverance through the round, but also guidance and willpower during the stabilizing and maintenance periods. I have what I need inside. I will do my best and then, God will do the rest.
