Food Management Monday's



I've been following the Menu Plan Monday's over at http://www.orgjunkie.com/  for quite sometime and it has been very helpful with cutting the stress at supper time, however I decide about this time last year to cut back on my food in take and started going to the gym every other day.  I did pretty good until..... Here Come The Excuse!  I got a cold that never went away, believe me I had a cough for more than 5 weeks. I'd get better then I'd be sick again.  Sooo......that idea kind of flew out the window.  This year I decided to go with food management first and cut back on the carbs a little and add more vegetable and fruit to our meals and then I'll start going to the gym or start walking.
 This week my family will have

Monday- oven fried skinless chicken , tossed green salad, low fat dressing, green beans
Tuesday- grilled elkburgers(nearly no fat), baked beans, green tossed salad and canned peaches light syrup   for dessert
Wednesday- chicken gumbo over brown rice
Thursday - trimmed pork chops grilled, leek, carrots, snow peas, broccoli stir fry, and brown rice
Friday- goulash and family recipe using elk burger or lean ground beef, tossed salad, pears for dessert
Saturday- taco salad, eliminate the taco shell
Sunday- crock-pot roast beef (skim off fat), tossed green salad, steamed broccoli/cauliflower, jello for desert

Have a Great Day!

Am I obsessing again !

                                                                                    

I've been beating my self up lately about how I'm taking care of my body.

• over eating
• not exercising
• not getting the rest I need

I must get a grip and get back in the saddle!

Have a Great Day!
