I stopped buying beef at the store, it is too expensive and not good for the environment. I was buying it at a local grocery store then started buying grass fed beef and roasts which is very expensive from whole foods. But have stopped buying beef altogether over the past 2 months.
I did have a grass fed ribeye from a health food store and cafe that was delicious and well marinated. My friends used to eat at this health food store every day until we finally decided that they over cooked the organic veggies so that they have lost all nutritional value and now we eat off the hot food bar at whole foods.
These are good people and have become friends of mine. How ever, there they have a bar. yeah a bar at whole foods. Only in louisiana! We play trivia there on friday nights. The regular bartender Donna and I have an agreement to cut me off after 2 pints of beer. This keeps me out of trouble. Only once did I ask her to give me a third and she respectfully said no and I thanked her for that.
I love cheese and eat it quite often. We enjoy organic valley white cheddar sharp cheese. It is delicious.
I wish I only had 3 pounds to lose too...alas this weight came on...my own fault. I am 5'7 and 155 this am.
terrible shape and lazy.
Led a sedentary lifestyle which needs to improve. I used to wear a fit bit and got so depressed that I was only walking 1500 steps a day.
anyway, herer I am...today is day 3 AF. And I want to remain AF(alcohol free) until easter. I was going to give up alcohol for lent but only made it one day. I am not religious at all but have mostly catholics down here and I work with the elderly.
My bipolar was out off whack and it is more in control so that is why I have been able to be AF. So I am very happy about that. Thank good ness for meds.
I feel more sane than I have felt in 2 months.
