The official beginning of week two. How exciting is that? I took a look at the plan for the OWL (Ongoing WeighLoss) phase and it’s not very exciting, but I’m hoping that after this week I will be inspired to tackle it with determination. I didn’t see…
After today I am officially half-way done with the induction diet. I am planning to look up what the requirements include for the OWL. That’s the ongoing weightloss phase. I sort of assumed that I stay on that plan until I’ve lost what I want to lose…
Feeling thinner. I was down another pound this morning and other than the pain in my back I feel great. I have been experimenting with recipes and some have turned out good, others…not so much. I tried making cream puffs with soy flour and they work…
Had to put up a picture of my completed quilt block. Not too bad for a first. I have some adjustments to make in order to actually make a quilt but I learned a lot with this and hopefully can make some more to go with it.

It’s 10:15 on Tuesday morning. Owen is napping, the bed is made and the rest of the day is waiting for me to jump in. I don’t have a lot of pressing things to do but I have a lot of things I’d like to get done and off my list.
