Braging tread

I'm going to brag that, so far, I've been able to stick with my resolution and haven't missed one workout since the New Year began

Good for you baldmonkee, unfortunately I was not able to stick with my resolution that was basically the same thing.

Another brag for me - yesterday I ate the correct amount of each type of serving as recommended by the food pyramid. :P I think that's the first time ever.

I seemed to have trained my husband to be more healthy and right now that is very good because I'm slacking off... I have a job which gives me almost a month vacation over Christmas. That month I spent cooking a lot. Healthy meals with lots and lots of salads and veggies. There was also always plenty of fruit available. My husband was not to keen on all these salads and stuff, but he is a lazy guy so he ate whatever I served him.

Now, I'm back to working full time and he is having a break from his studies so he is in charge of the food. Surprisingly enough he is sticking to the healthy stuff - I'm so proud.

Great job, Mrs. H. My husband has started cooking with a lot less cooking oil, because he is starting to feel the effect of consuming too much, so he finally agrees with me where using cooking oil is concerned.

[MrsH]

yay, good job Lisa. Now since you have bee able to get him to use less oil you might be able to get him to start using cooking oil in spray form too. That is even more healthy as you need so little.

I have been trying hard to get my dad to stop cooking with so much oil. He eats a lot of steak and chicken, and when I cook for him I try to keep it to a minimum. That's my next goal I hope to brag about - getting him to cut down.

Congratulations to all of you for setting and meeting some of your goals! It's a wonderful source of inspiration to hear how everyone else is accomplishing their goals.

I'm pleased with myself for introducing my family to a new vegetable. we had chicory, which we ate in a couple of different ways & both my boys enjoyed it.

My brag is that I've lost 20 pounds since starting my diet in January. I have a lot of weight to lose so it's slow going, but I'm proud I've been able to stick to my diet (except for one day a week when I allow myself a few moderate "cheats") and I'm glad to see the weight coming off.
