No Chocolate for two days; yea! That's not saying it is forever though :) Tuesday I was craving a dessert so I made my famous banana ice cream. I mash two ripe bananas on a dinner plate and stick it in the freezer. Then, to eat, I thaw them for about 20 seconds in the microwave and dish them up in 2 bowls. I add a few chopped walnuts or pecans, a little drizzle of chocolate sauce and a dollop of whipped cream. It satisfied and seemed a little on the sweet side since I haven't eaten anything like that for awhile.
Yesterday and today went great-today we had steel-cut oatmeal for breakfast with lo-carb toast and a veggie omelet for lunch with another piece of toast (peanut butter and a little fruit-only jelly). For a snack this morning I had a handful of mixed nuts and an apricot.
Dinner is going to be salmon, sweet potato, and asparagus. Might have the banana ice cream again. We skipped swimming this morning-first time we elected not to go. We just needed a break and felt like a quiet, slow morning.
My clothes are starting to feel a little different especially around the waist. Even though that is a slow go, I feel good about being fit and eating right.

Yay you! Keep it up. Sorry but the bananna ice-cream sounds gross. Just because I don't like bananas of course. I haven't been hungry lately so I just don't eat much. It works for now. Lost a couple more pounds.
It's okay, you don't have t like the bananas :) Glad you have lost a few, even if the reason was stress :(
