Week 2

Hi Everyone!
Sorry this is a day late I was writing a 14 page paper that took me ALL day yesterday. But anyways I have completed my very first week of no meat and no fast food! I am so proud of myself. For my meals for the week they were pretty simple Sunday I had made the mushroom stroganoff it was very good although the mushrooms smelled up my house for the rest of the night. Monday I made another pasta dish with spinach and grape tomatoes and sun dried tomato sauce it was very good. Tuesday was an easy day just made salads. Wednesday I made a pizza with kale, tomatoes, red onions and Gouda. It was delicious I found out I really like Gouda. Thursday I made veggie burgers they were delicious. Friday Justin and I went to dinner at Johnny Carino's I had baked tortellini with Alfredo and Justin had gotten his usually Chicken Bacon bow ties. Which like I stated before he is going to have meat occasionally but I am staying strong about no meat. Saturday I tried to make a veggie soup but I was using a very old crock pot because I don't have a big enough pot to cook it on my stove. But anyways the reason I said tried is because I was not cooking fast enough by 7 pm Justin and I were starving so we decided to order pizza I had gotten a spinach and feta pizza was really good and Justin got a Steak and Cheese one. Sunday we were able to FINALLY have the soup but it was HORRIBLE lol. It was a recipe I got from the Forks over Knives cookbook and it was not good at all. The recipe called for 6 cups of water and just had vegetables in it. So it really had no taste so I will NEVER make that one again. Tonight I used Morningstar ground "beef" to make tacos it was so good. I was very excited when I saw it. Probably will buy that again in the future.

In other news I have been kind of struggling to try and keep Justin interested in doing this. He was upset this weekend when we went grocery shopping and spent another 150 bucks so in the past 2 weeks we spent 300 dollars. Which is ridiculous for 2 people. So we are going to think of a different approach so we don't have to spend so much. I know every week we will still have to buy bread (because our house is so dry it drys out in one week) and fruits and vegetables. Otherwise I think we need to start thinking of other ways to be able to feed us for the week. So if anyone has any suggestions how to keep it cheaper please let me know.

This week is my last full week of school. I have my final for my math class tomorrow which is good. Tuesdays are a bad day I work from 8 to 430 and have class from 520 to 8 so it kind of sucks.  This week at weight watchers I lost another pound :D . So now I am at 211.6 lbs. I only have 11 lbs to go to be finally under 200 I can't wait.

Well that's it for the week. Better go study for my final.
