Menu 3/8/10


Here's my two week menu:


(For those curious, I make my menus out two weeks at a time. The Hubs gets paid every two weeks, so it just makes sense! Oh yeah, weight update at the bottom.)


Turkey Tenderloin, Peas, Mashed Potatoes


Ham, Mac and Cheese, Steamed Broccoli


BBQ Meatballs (Pioneer Woman), Green Beans, Honey Glazed Carrots


Sloppy Joes on Homemade Buns (my first attempt at buns), Cole Slaw, Fruit


Chicken Pot Pie


Southwestern Chicken and White Bean Soup (nope I still have not made this soup, but we ARE HAVING IT THIS WEEK! Promise... talking to myself here.), Corn Bread


Baked Spaghetti, Salad


French Toast, Scrambled Eggs, Fruit


Mexican Tortilla Pie, Mexi Rice (also moved over from last week)


Homemade Pizza



So, I weighed Friday morning and to my excitement I lost 3 lbs!! That's 11 total, in about 8 weeks. I was able to get in more exercise last week and I know that is what helped me the most! I'm finally feeling a little more room in my jeans, which is great motivation. Although not enough to keep me from the BAG OF M&M's my mom bought. Not a tiny small bag for the Hubs, who asked for them.. but a HUGE 14 oz bag. Yes, I know, I need to just get some will power... but when it comes to candy I don't have much. Let's keep it to small individual size bags if you want to treat the guys... please. ;)

I mentioned in my last weigh in post about a personal challenge. Well, it's been post phoned to Wednesday. I'll explain in a later post. It's not a big deal.. so don't get excited! I just wanted to do a personal challenge to help me stay focused on my goals.

Have a great week!

It's Saturday and I'm enjoying some MPM blog visiting while watching "Barney Miller" on Hulu.com.
It's time to expand my recipe sources with some new ideas.
