Well Mrs. Yogi,

Your not kidding on spending more time in the kitchen. The pots and pans etc.... My stove is actually getting stained...LOL

I'm over my first week (5 lb loss), but concerned now as I move along. I truly am already running out of ideas for cooking simple, and really getting fed up with Salads. I knew this was going to happen due to me not liking many veggies.

I have been looking over the reciepes posted and even have a low carb receipe book here at home. Yet I still find myself disappointed as I don't carry all of the ingrediants they call for. I thought I had all the spices in the world...LOL

The receipes I do see that I may think, mmmmm....I can do that as I have most of that here, will then call for wine, brandy...etc... Makes me think, oh for crying out loud, thats not normal cooking! LOL

Anyway, still hanging in there but feeling a bit blue due to women's problems. Maybe next week will be a better one

Thanks for the encouragement....always welcomed and appreciated.....

Wendy
