I have created another blog.  http://www.losingdaweight.blogspot.com/.  I will continue to post here occasionally, but the other is to chronicle my journey to release da weight I have gained back!

Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope that 2010, a new decade, brings you the best of what you could possibly desire or dream.  May this be the year, the decade, that you lose decades on the scale and achieve your weight loss successes and learn the lessons to maintain those successes and see many more.  May you find yourself in the process and become a much bigger you than you ever thought possible.

Here's a zero point cheers to you in 2010!

Chipotle BBQ Tofu and Sesame Stirfry

I made this recipe for dinner tonight.  Mine doesn't have quite the delicious look that's on this website.  But it was pretty yummy.  A little too vinegarey for me, but pretty good.  Oh and it has some kick!

As a side, I made a "stirfry" of onion, garlic, carrot, cabbage, and broccoli with a 1/2T sesame oil and the juice of a small and somwhat dry orange. That was yummy and very much hit the spot!

And I served it on a 1/2 C brown rice.

Very yummy dinner and it felt good to cook something special for myself.

Baked oatmeal!

This is a yummy way to have oatmeal!  And not too bad on cals.  I made this in an eight loaf mini pan.  I baked for 20 minutes, could have gone a minute or two longer.
