June 29, 2011 Low-Carb Menu

12:45PM
BBQ chicken with butter, spinach salad with eggs, cheese, bacon, and Ranch dressing, 2 bites BBQ ribs

7:15PM
2 hamburgers with cheese, mayo and mustard, Atkins bar

7:45PM
30-minute super slow weight lifting workout

NOTE: My music minister surprised the choir tonight by ending practice early and having food ready for us to eat and enjoy. I thought to myself, "Oh boy, here comes the carbfest!" But imagine my surprise when we stood in line for HAMBURGERS! Sure, there were chips, cookies, and other high-carb stuff I wouldn't touch with ten-foot pole. But I got me a couple of hamburgers with a slice of cheese each along with some mustard and mayonnaise--I'm good to go! One of the sopranos looked over at my plate and remarked, "Look at Jimmy over there being all good with his meal." Yep, you bet I am. After all, I am livin' la vida low-carb. ;)

Hey, Jimmy! What's funny is when they "assume" that you are really bucking up, gritting your teeth, and using monumental self-control to keep from eating the carbs, when in reality, we wouldn't want that crap to interfere with our enjoyment of the great taste of real food!

Have a good day and a fun Fourth of July! Hugs to Christine!

You got it Georgene. And now it's just "normal" as opposed to having to think about eating this way. It is as much a part of who I am as my blue eyes.
