Oh....Mushrooms! Spoiler....Funny!

Spinach and Mushroom Scramble with Avocado Prep

Well, I did it, almost.  I had a 20 grams of fiber day yesterday, under 30 carbs and I'm still full.  Seriously, I don't think I can eat a bite till noon.   I didn't even have a humongous spinach salad either.

I did some reading last night and found that MUSHROOMS have a ridiculously high fiber count.  That their fiber count is almost half the carb count.  I'm trying to identify foods like that.  The avocado has a higher than 50% ratio as does Almond milk, which is 100% carb to fiber.

The dietary recommended fiber for a woman is 25 grams.  There is no way that is going to work for me without some type of supplement.

Spinach and Mushroom Scramble with Avocado

I made an egg scramble yesterday for lunch.

2 eggs
1/4 cup Mexican Shredded Cheese
1/2 avocado = half a cup
1 cup mushrooms
1 cup raw spinach

Paired with 1 glass of almond milk

Carbometer: 13.5 carbs  FIBER: 8 grams


It's weigh-in Tuesday morning.  I'm down another pound.  18 to go.  The scale didn't quite want to give it to me, the needle kept bouncing back and forth.

I've been walking mostly.  No major hikes yet, just around town doing errands.  If it's not a mile away...I walk.   Drives the kids crazy.  "Please, can we take the car!!!"

I also made Banana Nut Muffins for the kids last night.  My son asked me to make a pie.  He said; "I need something sweet, will you make me a pie?  You used to always have dessert in the house...."

Is that success!?  When your children notice things have changed?

No, I didn't eat a mini muffin....but I did make mini muffins because I thought...maybe I would...but I didn't.
