Cooking Up Lunch, Trying to Stay Focused

I’ve been on a diet for a couple of weeks. Lost a few pounds, but it hasn’t been easy. Mr. Dewars has had to stay far away for the duration… but come Sunday night, the fast is over, my liver has rebounded and is ready for another taste of the brew. I have learned I don’t need sugar – too much, and I can get away without all those extra taco chips… provided i don’t start at all. They said I would lose my craving for such things. Alas… I only crave more, and cannot wait for the salty taste of a good chip with a little dip… it’s those little things that bring such fine satisfaction and pounds of course….

I shall try to exercise beginning next week… always tomorrow… I threw my back out playing golf on Tuesday, had to stop right in the middle of the round… will try a little swinging over the weekend, and perhaps I will be ready for next week’s tournament… anyway… just ate a veggie burger for lunch. My friend from Vermont left them behind. Grilling them till crispy on the back Weber, worked and they were tolerable. Don’t know if I would seek them out in the marketplace, but as they were the only choice in the fridge for lunch… they worked just fine.

Have you ever tried veggie burgers for food? Nothing substitutes for a big juicy burger though these weren’t bad.

TTFN.

Back to work. Blogging my way to stardom with golfgurls. 🙂

Two thumbs up for veggie burgers! Hamburgers are not my faves.

Congrats on the pounds and ‘clink’…enjoy your sip.

I too put on a few (4 lbs. to be exact), while visiting wonderful family on the Cape. Cut out all bread and am back down two. Carbs are what kill me. For what it is worth, I am a type O blood and my cravings are protein and red wine and an occasional scotch, or manhattan or martini, cosmo………………….. oh, I dare say, it is so hard to keep the weight off !

I’m so glad you actually ate my favorite veggie burger! I was sure they were bound for the garbage. I like them because they do not pretend to be a hamburger. Another favorite are Morningstar’s Chipotle Black Bean burgers- also not a burger wannabee. Probably more info than you want but more veggies are one of the keys to dieting success. So think Bloody Mary’s, Mimosas and Bellinis.
