kids say the darnedest things !

Tonight I was telling my husband not to think that I was half vegetarian if he saw me eating alot of vegetarian proteins , well my son was in the room when I said this and he got a real funny look on his face and he said " Mom , am I half vegetarian or am I half indian?" I almost peed my pajama bottoms full laughing so hard , of course I had to hold that laughter while explaining to my son what a vegetarian was and once he had my explaination he says " oh yeah , I thought you were talking about something else" this is when the laughter started .

What brought the conversation on in the first place was that I recieved a call from one of the consultants at LA Weight Loss today . She wanted to know how things were going and did I have any questions , well things couldn't be better but I did have one question , "can I use some of the vegetarian proteins in place of my proteins" , her answer was yes . Each day I have to eat a certain amount of protein , veggies , fruit , starches , dairy and a fat , well it gets kind of old eating the same meats week after week and I am not a person to do repeat meals so to avoid difficulty with the proteins ,since chicken is my favorite and fish is my least favorite, I will end up getting tired of it . I went back to the grocery store tonight and I got several vegetarian products such as veggie burgers , reduced fat peanut butter and unsalted nuts . Now I really am ready ! hehe ! Four years ago when I was on this diet there wasn't as many food choices as there are today and I am really excited about the choices because it means that picky me won't be eating repeat meals often .

I go weigh in at 10 in the morning and I will post my progress when I get back home . Y'all have a good night and sleep well !
