becomingkateToday has been decent. This morning I made pancakes for my son because I told him I'd make them this weekend and we didn't. I have buttermilk I need to use up (and since I'm trying to go low carb again I can't exactly whip up a batch of biscuits or something). I still have a lot left and I'm not entirely sure if it goes bad faster than regular milk.
Anyway, the pancakes were great especially with real maple syrup that I bought to make maple frosting for the banana cake I made a couple weeks ago. (Did I mention that was amazing?) I don't think one small pancake is going to ruin the day.
I'm defrosting some of the frozen raw shrimp I have so I can boil it and just have it cold later, dipped in some ketchup (lazy man's cocktail sauce), Om nom nom.
Then for lunch I had...oh what did I have. I had some leftover chicken that also came out really good. I also had a red bull this morning because that is my habit. I'm getting ready to go on the treadmill and I also went to the grocery store and got some good snacks.
Husband laid down the rules and I'm not sure they're strict enough. Basically no fast food, no eating after 9:30 p.m., no copious amounts of alcohol more than once a week and no more than one drink a week other than that. I can cheat once a week which I already used up on BK (I won't be doing that again). I'm also putting upon both of us a basic diet of more fish, less bread and pasta, less red meat, which we don't eat all that much anyway. Oh and also I'm going on the treadmill for half an hour a day 4 times a week, to start.
I'm ready. I'm going to do it again and hopefully this is the last time I'll have to go on a weight loss journey.
