accident: i took my car to be looked at by the local ford dealership to have them tell me if it was in fact drivable. i was mostly concerned about the air bag deploying in my face when i was driving but i also wanted them to check the guts of the car for damage. after a bit of pushing, the man finally looked at my car and determined it wasn't drivable. there is damage to the radiator and it is leaking coolant. for who knows how long now i am cruising around in a ford focus. besides feeling like i am driving a go-cart (big change from an escape to a focus) there is no CRUISE CONTROL!!! that drives me crazy but oh well, i will live.
loss: i went in to the center saturday morning and found that i am now 1.5 lbs lower than i was before the holiday gain. what that means was last week i had a 3 lb loss that only counts for 1.5 lbs. weird right? unfortunately my numbers in loss are now averaging less than 3 lbs a week so they are doing a plateau breaker. for monday and tuesday i have to eat 2 eggs and a 1/2 an orange for breakfast, drink supplement for mid morning, 6 oz of chicken and 2 cups of lettuce for lunch, drink supplement for mid afternoon, and then 4 oz of beef, 2 cups of lettuce, and the other half of the orange for dinner. on wednesday i return back to the regular plan. this sounds much nicer than the 7 day break since it is only 2 days. :o)
title: well the updates are done now, but i still haven't explained the title. today while making my lunch i realized that i made art on a plate. it was pretty and yummy!!! so pretty in fact that i took pictures.
this is my french toast with strawberries (equals 2 starch servings and 1 fruit serving, and the egg for the toast is about 1-1.5 servings of protein)
this is my...ermm... egg thing. (1 small tomato, 1/2 c. spinach, 1/2 c. mushrooms, and 1-1.5 eggs for protein). lots to eat but so tasty!
well lets hope tomorrows visit to the center shows good numbers and the breaker does its job!
happy eating!!!

I will agree that the French toast looks great but your egg concoction leaves a whole lot to be desired in appearance. (However, the dish you are serving it on is just fantastic...) Keep up the good work with the diet.
