Small steps.

Today was a good eating day. Good thing because yesterday wasn’t. Pretty stressful around here.

Finally today we have hot water again, thanks to a new hot water heater (even though the ‘old’ one was less than 4 months old.) There are those days that just aren’t good, and laughing at it isn’t an option.
But, today is a new day.

I got a new toy to play with, it’s actually a product I am reviewing, and it takes a ‘small step’ approach to weight loss. Just a little tease and I’ll post the review in a few days after I try to break it LOL! (J/K – it’s actually quite fun).

I need to extra focus on eating. Starting to let little snacks and stuff sneak in. I think I may have to ban granola from the house for a while. I tend to nibble on it. I hate it when a green light food becomes a red light food and I have to remove it from the premises for awhile. Removing the granola means getting rid of one of my very favorite brekkies for a bit (greek yogurt, honey, strawberries, granola). Maybe the change will be good.
I guess I am kind of like the warden, and certain foods have to go into solitary confinement when they can’t get along in the general population (aka my normal foods).

So, I am trying to think of something new for breakfast a couple days a week. No cereal, as that is problematic for me to munch on. I already do oatmeal in my protein pancakes.
I am thinking of making an egg sandwich using the Arnold sandwich thins and some cheese. Yep – that sounds pretty good!

    My hot water heater went out a month ago and it sucked! took 2 days to get fixed. My boys were mad!

    I’ve been trying to reign in my snacking lately, too. I’ve noticed that I have a lot more in the way of grab n go snacks than I did when I first started losing weight. Too much variety can be as much of a drawback as too little, I think.

    Glad you have hot water again. It’s one of those things you don’t realise you depend on so much until you don’t have it!

    Lori, for new breakfast ideas, what about adjusting your cottage cheese muffins to make them breakfasty? Either ham and cheese, or what I am going to try is fruit. If they come out good, you’ll hear about it over on my blog!
