Long time no blog ... Thats going to change. I promise

Well, its been a while since I have posted anything. But now is as good as time as any to catch up. I have lost 8 lbs since I have last blogged. No magic pills, or special soups. The way I have lost weight was to meal plan, that is every saturday I plan the menu for the week, make a grocery list and only buy whats on the list. Everyone knows what is for dinner each night so no phone calls with requests.

Traditionally we would go to the grocery store after work hungry. By not going to the grocery store every couple of days it elimnates the purchase of snack items that seem so rewarding when you are hungry after work. As soon as we get home I start making supper, this eliminates snacking. I am choosing the menu so it what I like to eat. That also means its healthier, no KD, no junk. We have salad or fresh vegetable every night.

It also seems that whatever need for snacking I had has been surpressed. I don't know if thats a mental thing or if its because we are eating healthier.
