New Year approaches

So the New Year is just a few days away. I think my only resolution is something that I've been trying to do for a while now and that is to eat more fruits and vegetables. I am so bad about this, mostly because I'm terribly picky. I don't like canned veggies (and they really aren't that good for you), and really prefer fresh. But in the winter, there aren't a lot of really good fresh veggies out there.

I am taking suggestions on new recipes that I can make using veggies, but please avoid anything that uses beans or peas as I really can't stand those. Oh, and I don't like carrots either - except Carrot Cake and I don't think that qualifies for getting in my 5 fruit/veggie servings.

Hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday! See you in 2010!!

I'm so bad at this!

Wow - didn't realize it had been so long since I posted. I need to get on this more often. Last night's weigh-in was a decent one. I was down 0.6 which brings my current weight to 192.8 lbs. That 200 mark is getting further and further away. I am happy about that.

I did have to go shopping over the weekend for more clothes. So glad the in-laws sent a check for Christmas so I could hit Kohl's for some new pants. One of the girls at work referred to my pants last week as "clown pants" because they were so big and baggy. I take that as a compliment. So now I'm happily wearing a size 14, and that's not a plus size, but a regular size 14. No more plus size stores for me. I think it will soon be time to cancel my Lane Bryant credit card because I won't be shopping there anymore.

Life is good!!
