5 lbs and a Whole lot of Squash
Tonight I went to Weight Watchers to weigh. I'm down 5lbs from last week. The meetings I go to are almost entertaining. People sitting around cracking jokes and thinking they're funny. But I guess, at least they're having fun while trying to lose weight. My favorite comment of the night was when this really annoying girl told the leader, "I don't mind being unhealthy as long as I'm skinny." I think she needs to take her money elsewhere because that's definetely not the WW philosophy. Maybe its because I'm not that far over my goal weight (like 10lbs or so), but the plan is really easy to follow. Especially now since fruit is 0 points as well as most vegetables. Which leads me to the squash. I've been wanting to try Spaghetti Squash for a while. We bought one last weekend. I was surprised that the thing was $7.00 but oh well. Seemed a little high to me but what do I know about squash. Tonight was the night to try it. With a little help from Vanessa, I figured out how to cook the thing. It took longer to cook than expected and I had to leave it in the oven with Neal while I went to WW. True to form, dinner was ready for me when I got home. Everything nicely in the microwave waiting to be heated up. Thank God one of us can cook; however I'm pretty sure I couldn't have screwed the squash up. With a little chicken and spaghetti sauce, I thought it was pretty tasty. Neal just thought it was ok. Since it makes a ton, I'll be having it for lunch tomorrow and possibly the next day. Now, time to watch the Biggest Loser. No matter how many seasons they do, I keep watching and the people get bigger and bigger. I think its the most "real" reality TV show on right now. I mean, its hard to fake losing 100+ pounds. I get into and love to hear their stories and how this show changes their life. And to also remind me to continue being healthy. Peace.
