ADAPTING

I was so excited when I hit 30 days.  I spent 1/2 a day cleaning out my closet.  No longer did size 14 fit me.  Luckily I had saved varying sizes over the years. I was now in a size 12, had moved a few notches on my belt.  I was not only feeling better, but those size 14 were going, to never come back.  Kamryn had started to want tomatoes, cucumbers, and anything her mommy was eating.  I was left thinking, "Is this just a stage because that is what mommy is doing?" 
I was learning that on girls night out, we could still meet and eat at Lettie's.  I would sustain from chips and cheese dip.  A taco salad, no cheese or shell, but with about 2 tablespoons of guacamole would satisfy my Mexican craving.  When Corbin wanted his favorite meal of hamburger helper, I would make a chicken stir-fry for me.
Chicken Stir-Fry
6-8 oz lean chicken breast, sliced thin
3 tablespoons, Kraft Lite Asian Sesame Salad Dressing
2 tablespoons water
Sliced onions, water chestnuts, mushrooms, snow peas and broccoli.
Stir fry meat, using salad dressing + water as your sauce, til meat is done and adding veggies until you reach desired doneness.

One more pan to go in the dishwasher was no big deal.  I now always keep baggies of sliced meat in the freezer for a quick and easy stir-fry.  I have learned to up the meat and veggie quantities, Kamryn would rather have stir-fry with lots of broccoli, that hamburger helper. 

She snagged my cucumber off the cabinet before I could even get is cut up.  Needless to say she ate the whole thing and 2 tomatoes.  I love that baby girl.
