oh, yummm!!!

It has been 3 weeks (I think) since starting the diet.  Progress has been good - although I had kind of hoped to be a size 8 by now.  That's a jok, by the way.  I have a long way to go before seeing size 8, if I ever do.

After being on the diet for a while, I've had to wonder why I strayed away from it in the first place.  It's satisfying, even without the chocolate cake.  And I feel so much better, already.  More energy, I'm squeezing back into the clothes I exploded out of.

And right now, I am indulging in a perfectly legal but VERY delicious spinach pie.  Gonna share the recipe here, I'm such a fan of it.  You can vary with veggies and meats.

Spinach Pie:

4 large eggs, whipped (or 3/4 cup egg substitute)
1/4 cup chopped onion
3/4 cup shredded cheese
1 package frozen spinach, thawed and squeezed dry.

Mix all the ingredients well, pour into a pie plate and bake at 350 for about 25 minutes, or until done.  I like to add about 1/2 cup of crumbled turkey sausage or bacon.  Very good!  And I have varied this recipe into something completely different by using chopped broccoli and shredded chicken in place of the spinach and sausage.

NEXT WEEK - Kielbasa and Cabbage! (turkey kielbasa, of course!)
