Lobstor risotto, wine and chocolate...
Makes for a wonderful evening.

Today was a good day.

I slept late, till 8.  Then we went to the animal shelter and washed and brushed dogs for a few hours. I fell in love with a beagle, and told the shelter that if no one had adopted by Weds to give us a call and we would take him.

Then it was grocery shopping, a bit of laundry, some RP in AIM, getting caught up on all tags I owe in RP games.

 

And then dinner with Aunt.  She made Lobstor risotto and a chicory salad.  I ate double portions of each much to Teh Rocks satisfaction.  I am only 5'3 and in the past two years I have dropped from being 143 pounds to 110.  While my Dr says that is (barely) within a health range, he has said it wouldn't hurt to gain a few pounds back.

Now, for those who are going WTF about the weight loss, please realize that in the last 2 years I have had surgery (not cosmetic or anything that was related to inducing weight loss), started walking about 25 minutes every day except Sunday (on the treadmill when the temp is above 85).  On Sunday mornings (even when it's hot) we ride our bikes to the bookstore for the paper and coffee (for him, hot chocolate for me).

So this wasn't an overnight thing.  Also I cut out all sodas except for one a week.  And being prone to sinus infections and the subsequent antibiotic treatments don't help me eat 3 meals a day when I don't feel good.  Add in OT since June...

So, Teh Rock who was worried that I was getting too thin.  He is happy now since I ate major portions. 

Thing is, I do have a sweet tooth and indulge a lot but it's along the lines of 2 cookies, or a small scoop of ice cream.  I bake a lot but I don't eat the majority of it, the rest of them do.

Oh..speaking of baking.  I have ordered a new cookbook and when it comes the first thing I want to try is Apple Cider Muffins.

Tomorrow we are going to fry chicken, make southern biscuits, salad etc..   

That should be a good day as well.
