palacsinta!?!?!?! I'm 1/2 Hungarian, too! I was just in Budapest in December, in fact! Who is in your family - you or your husband? Or both? Or neither! We make fruit or chestnut cream palacsinta often on weekends, and my dad always makes ricotta/lemon rind/walnut palacsinta on Christmas morning and usually when I go home to visit!

We are like your husband - often start cooking dinner at 10 or 1lpm. I know it's not healthy - but my husband works kind of weird hours and if I eat dinner at 6, then I'm starving by the time I go to bed, so I've always eaten late.

So anyway, to complete my meal count from yesterday (and to assure you all that I do eat enough and include protein), for dinner I had:

- 1.5 dolomades (grape leaves stuffed with ground beef and rice)
- some hummus/pita
- 4 scampi
- piece of saganaki (pan-fried goat cheese)
- 2 glasses of red wine

.. we went to a greek restaurant and ate at the bar.

I'm HUGELY picky about food. I wouldn't touch meat until I was 22, not even as a child. I refused to eat food that had "bones in it", even if it was boneless meat. I had a very limited selection of vegetables in my repetoire, too, as in maybe 3.

Now, it's a little different, but I still have strict rules. We have a whole thread about it somewhere in Social. I'll see if I can find/bump.

Today we had our neighbors over for breakfast, and I made:
- onion, yellow pepper, potato, and cheese frittata
- roasted potatoes with garlic
- fresh orange juice

... and my husband and I are going snowboarding this afternoon/evening, so that'll be it for my exercise.

I don't think I've lost ANY weight because I just tried on some pants that still don't fit, but I do feel a lot better since we started this thread, mostly because I've been making a point to exercise more. I actually really LIKE exercising and always have, but this past year, I've fallen out of doing it regularly and I noticed that 90% of the battle is getting into workout clothes and leaving the house. Once I'm out of the house, then it's easy and fun.
