Welcome home! Are you on the January weight loss thread? Posting my weight weekly really helps me because I am goal driven and competitive. Like you, I fell off the healthy eating, got tired of trying to lose more weight etc., so last July I committed to MWL. It works as you know. So much of it is yes, learning new food prep routines and habits but also behavior change. That's what I have had to work on. I tell myself that I have good food at home and I can wait, when I think I 'must' have a snack. Somebody else posted something really helpful: when tempted, tell yourself 'this isn't real food'. And I carry an apple or carrot stick or potato with me on errands. When I get tired, then I am apt to make bad food choices.
Sounds like you are on a great start. Marsha

Hi Stephanie,
I noticed that you are eating A-1 sauce with your fries. I have been trying different sauces so I don't eat so much ketchup and sugar. I found that Heinz 57 is very low in calories and sugar. If you are being adventurous you might like it.
You asked in my journal about favorite recipes from the MWL book. I really enjoy so many of them. I am using the 21-day menu to guide my weekly menus. I'm trying two new salads, entrees, and soups each week. I've done this before and it really works for me. I forgot how much I enjoy the recipes. When reading them they don't look so appetizing but usually they come together really well. I like most of the salads, the condiment tomato soup was a nice surprise. I love the Baja soup. I like the potato salads.
I hope you have a good week!

I "learned" from my bad batches of chili and soup last week and made both of these -- results were DELICIOUS!!!
