Two weeks in...

Post by ktharmoney » Mon Oct 26, 2009 12:31 pm

And I've lost five pounds. I'm always amazed by how this process works. It's helpful, I think, that I can still eat (mostly) whatever I want. I can still have coffee, I can still eat tasty soups, etc etc.

Hopefully I can keep this up.

Congratulations! It's really pretty simple to understand and implement.

I second the tasty soups bit! I have some roast chunks simmering away in a pot of water right now. It's my first soup, so I'm hoping for the best. But I REALLY love the smell. I wonder if I can add more water to it, as most of it evaporated. Oh well. Another 50 minutes until I can add all the other goodies. Yum! (hopefully).

And congrats on the weight drop. Keep it up, and keep it simple. Whoop!

Hilly, if you'll accept some advice:

Let that soup cook down, chile! Unless you're in danger of boiling the pot dry, letting it cook down concentrates the goodness.
