Support for low-fat high-fiber diet

Both sound good, but I put in 4 boneless skinless chicken breast, 1/2 package of low sodium taco seasoning, and 1/2 cup salsa. You cook on low in a crock pot for 5 hours. It is tricky I really have to time it.

I serve it with beans, lettuce and a bit of cheese on a tortilla.

Wonderful good, and a WW recipe.

Sounds good, Cowgirl. I'm going to try this soon.

I've done breakfast burritos, they're good for putting into the hands of children who're leaving without having eatten anything. Maybe I'll give tacos a try.

It's plenty cool here, but rainy.

CG - found something about goats on slate:

The goats are the only animals that regard their viewers with a canine curiosity, mounting the fronts of their pens to greet visitors. Goats are said to be intelligent, and perhaps this cockiness is due to their awareness that they, along with the horses, are just about the only animals exhibited at the fair whose future does not lie a few yards away, deep-fried on the end of a stick.

We're going away this weekend - I will:
not buy fudge or other junk at gas stations eat an apple for a snack have a nice dinner

Kathy - have you ever made your roast with a can of pepsi, can of cr. of mushroom soup and packet of onion soup mix?? If not and you want to add a little sugar and fat to a perfectly fine piece of meat you should try it - it tastes great and makes a nice gravy.

Don't let the looks of it when your mixing the stuff up fool you - it cooks up yummy.

My FIL uses onion soup on everything! I have heard of a Cola Roast but not all these together! Wow makes me want to make another one. Thanks for sharing.

Rose Gravy takes years, I spent two years as a newlywed making gravy. My DH ate a lot of terrible gravy those years. Now I am expert. Two things I learned is flour has to be browned and it must be premixed into a bit of water. Sometimes it helps to take it off the heat to add it.

So I am going to the store for lunch and supper things, no idea what I will buy!

hello dear friends,

i have been so busy in rl as cowgirl calls it...

my part-time job turned fulltime and is absolutely hellish...

i think i am going to have to find a new one that is not so hellish, i gave it two trys...

my diet is in the pits...eat at the food court every lunch... hope to have a day off so ican get my lunches and snacks on track...

bf is great but condo has not sold.

son is great as a freshman in college can be...

i want to tell you more and will

at a later date...

just logged on for the first time in daze and don't like to see theresa's thread so far down on the pound!

Sorry about the job--are you on your feet all day? Too many hours? Somethimes it takes awhile to get comfortable with the new coworkers, employer, supervisor, company rules, etc..... At least you've got some money coming in and can look for something else.

I do as Rose does; brown bag. That way I eat better and spend less. AND have more time to enjoy the break!

Glad to hear from you.

I am going to start brown bagging as soon as i get a day off to get to lay in the supplies...I am good at home , eating healthy, but am like a kid in the candy shop at lunch....yah i see those healthy salads but never seem to opt for the healthy choices...

Brown bagging is the only way to go...

I am shocked at how dirty the store is.... Lots of guys who don’t wash their hands on lots of common machines...I wipe everything down when i get there each day, it is really gross and it seems the cleaning crew can get through the vacuming but little else.

A new store, due to merger and not enough staff, no time for training and really messed up inventory..It took three hours to ring up a sale for the first couple days..

Very stressful... I am blown away with how little compassion and politeness the general population shows each other...

I was hired to work twenty hours and they have me doing forty and now i have to go in on my day off today...

I just need to get through this and remember that this is just a step a long the way

Dropped the condo price 5% hope we see some action...

Went to the onc for check up, going to have a pet scan on the 22nd...
am not expecting any bad news...

well hi ho hi ho, its off to work i go!

Laura,
Nice to hear from you again and so sorry that the job isn't working out!
I sure hope things improve or that you find something better!

Sorry to hear you have to work such long hours-and your day off too. They must be looking for more staff so your hours can be cut back. Most employers like parttimers because they don't require the same kind of benefits.

Customers actually wait through 3 hours? The store must have quite a few new employees and not enough longtimers. And inventory problems. Wow! I see why the job is so tough! Hopefully these problems will disappear over time--a short time!!

Don't know what to say about the cleanliness; hope you have a good supply of hand sanitizer.

Q-tips can do keyboards. Too much liquid will mess them up. I think washing your hands may be the best way to go.

Somebody went to the supply place and brought me back a can of compressed air.

I don't know about strawberry plants, seems like I'm always pulling those out from where they shouldn't be.

Laura,
Thanks, my Lat Flap is doing very well and I will be going back to work in a couple of days (darn).
I don't know how I will do, as cleaning houses and offices will be a lot harder than sitting around like a slug and doing absolutely nothing for 6 weeks.
But it is soooo nice to have my body parts back!

Rose,
Thanks goodness I am right handed and my Lat is on the left. But I vacuumed my family room last night and could even feel it a bit on my left side.
I think that for a couple of weeks, I will just set the vac controls higher, so I don't have to push as hard-but don't tell my customers!

That is a good idea. I can't wait to get back into my Pilates again and strengthen my core.
