So remember how I was telling you the other day that I was impressed that even though I'm known for eschewing a "daily routine" I hadn't yet forgotten to weigh myself in the morning as required during homeopathic HCG weight loss plan therapy? Well it happened. Today I forgot to weigh myself. I've got no idea why; I think I just got too comfortable.

So I've got no weight change to report. It's Thursday. The weekend is coming up and I've got a few functions to attend in the near future that I'm worried about. I'm hoping that there will be something available that is at least a little bit approved for eating during my homeopathic HCG weight loss plan. But I'll just have to wait and see.

My kids have started to ask me if stuff that I'm contemplating in the kitchen is "on my diet" so that's helpful (if very annoying). It's kind of belittling to have an 8 year old and a 9 year old reminding you to stick to your guns when it comes to eating healthy foods.

After I got the kids to school, I took my homeopathic HCG weight loss plan therapy dose and my B-Total and then decided to flip through the cookbook, pick a few recipes and head to the grocery store. I got the ingredients to try the Orange Cremesicle, the Chicken Asparagus Soup and the Turkey Tomato Soup. And I just grabbed a grouping of appropriate fruits and vegetables while I was there browsing in the produce section. I decided that I like to go to the regular grocery store rather than the Walmart for produce. They seem to have better produce and it seems to last longer after I buy it. Even though the Walmart produce is a bit cheaper...it's not worth it because I have to go back to get more so often; if I get it all at once some of it goes bad.

Plus they don't have the Melba Toast Spicy 3 Pepper variety at Walmart. So that's enough reason right there for me to stick to the local grocer. I guess you never know what's going to be important. I should probably leave a "suggestion" in the Walmart suggestion box. Maybe the buyer would add it to the next order just for me, but I doubt it!

I ended up making Turkey and Tomato soup for lunch. It didn't sound good when I was reading the recipe, but I really liked how it turned out. I put in a little bit of fresh herbs since I had them in the garden, but other than that I followed the recipe to the tee. I added some Melba Toast (original flavor...I thought I'd try them for dipping and scooping in the soup). And I saved my fruit so I could snack on an apple mid-afternoon.

I had Filet Mignon for dinner (after I took my homeopathic HCG weight loss remedy). I pulled the bacon off prior to cooking and then cooked it up separately to give to my kids. They love bacon. (Who doesn't, right?) The Filet Mignon was really good. I hadn't had beef in a bit and I was apparently craving it! For my vegetable I had steamed cabbage. I know most people don't have a liking for this vegetable, but I've got a strange preference for it so I thought it was great with a little salt and a lot of pepper. I was going to have the Orange Cremesicle for an after dinner treat until I realized that I don't have a blender right now. I broke it a few months ago and it hadn't occurred to me to buy a new one. So that was out. I had half a grapefruit instead.
