Week 2

So, we are going on our second week, yea! I have to admit that I did have some meat and cheese last week... let me explain. We had potato and ham soup frozen so rather than through it out Dutch and I ate it. Also, I had half of a grilled cheese sandwich that Dutch didn't finish. It was good but not good enough to switch me back over to the dark side. ; )
My main thought for this week is that I am now understanding the addictive nature of high calorie and fat foods. It's interesting. When I'm not feeling so hot my mind goes to bread, meat, and cheese. I think it is that endorphin rush I'm really craving. I'm also feeling that we are coming up with some great meal ideas. It's can be difficult at first but there are tons of options. I'm open to suggestions if anyone has some!!!!
