Yesterday I attended a meeting with some like minded ladies and it was a lot of fun! We talked about our personal goals and the steps we are taking to get there. We've decided to meet each week to talk, cook, swap recipes/tips/ideas and just support one another in our new lifestyles and journeys. No whining, no excuses, just what works and what doesn't! Next week I'm bringing homemade pizza dough and sauce, we'll make pizzas and discuss the week.
I shared a few tips last night that I've incorporated into my daily life. I bought pretty dishes, small plates and bowls that hold correct serving sizes. I measure almost everything on my small food scale, though I am learning how to use that knowledge to estimate sizes in the real world. A few minor food changes, Greek yogurt instead of sour cream, whole wheat instead of white breads, baked chips, and cooking at home. I've offered to give some cooking lessons to the others (as I've mentioned, I LOVE cooking)!
Sorry to cut this short but I'm heading to the hospital for a blood transfusion shortly and I have a lot to do! But, I'm looking forward to taking the next steps with a new group of supporters!
