I’m bouncing back and forth between 195 and 194 lb. and boy is it hot.

I found two people at work that will take my apple waste. The good apples I take to work and share with co-workers. They really arn’t too tart after all.

I weighed in at 196 lb. today.

I made Peach Tea Sorbet last night and it is great!

For dinner I made a great “sandwich” consisting of a bed of lettuce leaf, slice of ham, sliced tomato, sliced avocado, crumbled cooked chicken breast, drizzled low carb ranch dressing and grilled green onion on top. It is served cold and was very good. So good, I’m having more for lunch on Thursday.

The rose bloomed! The heat must have forced it along. So here are the new pics.

The rose pictures are from last night about 8:00 PM and this afternoon the rose was wilted. It only lasted about a day. Too bad.

I feel a lot better being back on my diet. Today I weighed in at 198 lb.

We have a ozone alert for Wednesday, glad Shannon had a day off today to mow the front and back lawns.

I started my South Beach Diet (again) today. I began in January and got all the way down to 188 lb. from my original 210 lb. When May came along I was 188 lb. By the end of May I was 198 lb. Let’s just say May was not a good month.

I went to the grocery store and spent way too much money on food. It’s always that way. I feel old because I remember being able to buy a lot more food for a LOT less money.

I’m excited and glad to be back on the diet wagon. I did not feel good when I was off the diet. My acid reflex came back, my back ached from all the excess weight, and all my clothes were tight.

I will try to vary the foods this time. I tend to get into a “habit” of the same foods and I burn out from boredom.

By the way, my starting weight for today is: 200 lb.

As promised, here are some pics of the plants in our yard.

We also have a rose bud that I’ll have to keep an eye on and take a photo of it.

Happy Father’s Day!
