ATTACK OF THE VEGGIES...

this is just a quick update...

eating or actually not eating everything in sight has been a serious chore this last couple of weeks...so when i decided to attend a womens conference this past weekend - not packing a lot of really good junk food was difficult...

this conference was the women of faith - there were approx 18,000 women in the arena (pictures at the end)

step 1.. at the grocery - nothing over 100 calories and nothing that had to be kept cold...so i got dried peas, 100 calorie snack pack of cookies, dried fruit and cheese that did not need refrigerated

step 2...vow that i would not eat others junk food...

step 3...make the best choices possible at the time i have to make the food choice...

so with my basic game plan - on friday am...i drank my metamucil laindend grapfruit juice - went and picked up the other 2 people riding with me and we headed out on our 2 hour journey...stopped and shopped along the way...

1st food stop - 2:45 was at bucca deppo's (italian)...so i had a ceasar salad with no croutons and chicken stuffed cannaloni's with chunkie tomatoes instead of sause and lite cheese...not bad and held me till after 11 - over 100oz of water and no snacking

2nd day - for breakfast did the grapefuit juice with bacon proteins and fruit - no carbs - lunch was 2 open air market taco's just ate the middles...no carbs again and dinner when i got home with hubby was BAD - 3 wings and 1/2 portion of fries with a salad...lol - over 100oz of water...

sunday was very good with food...made chicken hamburgers on the grill with corn (also grilled)...water adn grapefruit juice...

here are some of the pictures...there were about 8 speakers...

this is mandesa (from american idol)...she did 3 concerts and i had my picture taken with her and got her autograph...





this is Steven Curtis Chapman...he did one concert...


this is lisa whelchel (from fact of life tv show)..i also go her autograph...


and this is rachel...i got her autograph also...her life is so much like mine that it was scary...its as if she lived my life 10 years before i did...


and this is 4 of us...sherry, missie, me and joann...


OK OK...so it was not a quick update...but i feel so blessed and content that it is hard to be brief...lol...have a great day...

You planned for success and you achieved it, in my books! I'm so happy you had a good time. Feeding the spirit healthy "food" is just as important as it is for our bodies!

It's been about 3 years since I went to Women of Faith. Sandi Patty sang with her husband. Amazing. The one before was Natalie Grant and I have been hooked on her since. Glad you brought your snack food! I got their box lunch one time and it was just plain gross and full of mayo. Probably speaks more to the caterer than the convention though... Glad you enjoyed it!
