Normally I only weigh on Mondays, but I had a feeling that I'd find good news if I stepped on the scale today, so I did. I'm officially 10 lbs down since the first of August, and I haven't even added in the exercise portion to the challenge yet. That's just nutty! If I kept it up at this rate (which would be miraculous), I'd be looking at my goal weight at the end of this 100 day challenge (end of October).

In other woo hoos, I got The Hubs to eat yogurt today. You have NO idea what a big deal this was, so you're going to have to trust me on this one. It was a BIG deal. I blended together 1 cup of home-made condensed yogurt, 1 small banana and 1 tsp of Stevia.

I'm sure loving my yogurt maker and my yogurt cheese maker. My "YoChee" recipe book arrived in the mail on Thursday and I'm excited to rummage through it to find something 'surprising' to make. Surprising being something The Hubs will never believe had yogurt in it. I like to tell him AFTER he's tasted it and thinks that it's wonderful.

I've become very good at getting him to eat healthy things, even though he's given me his opinion on all things healthy- especially cooked vegetables. "Nope- I won't eat it". But surprise, surprise, he now loves cooked squash, green beans and spinach. The trick is to *lightly* (keep in some crispness) sauté in olive oil and spice it up. I found some dried garlic slices at our local Asian market that is wonderful to throw into vegetable dishes. It really adds a nice kick in flavor.

OK, seems that I've done it again. This post has gone all over the place.

.............Welcome to the inside of my head. That's pretty much what goes on 24/7.
