Hi guys, I am feeling somewhat better. Trying to eat healthy but a friend came over and we had Chinese food and he brought an apple pie! Well, I tried to control my portion size on the Chinese food and did okay but there were lots of leftovers and he gave them to me. I wish he would have taken them with him but he said he had plenty of food at home, well so do I! I had 2 more meals of Chinese and threw out the rest of the fried rice. Then I got into the apple pie and ended up eating half of it. I threw the other half of it out the window for the birds and they ate it up this morning.

Now I have to deal with friend who wants to cook really fattening foods for me. Oy! He wants to come over and cook me a spaghetti dinner on Thursday. If he leaves the rest I hate to say it but it is going in the trash can. I never eat spaghetti because of all the calories. I will just have a small portion of it when he is here. He is very nice to make food for me and I don't want to hurt his feelings but sooner or later I'm going to tell him I need to eat more nutritious food.

I am into eating salads, fruits, steaks at times, roasted chicken breast, veggies, stir fry veggies and tofu or quinoa.

My friend is very big but he has lost a whole lot of weight. I don't mind that he is big. I am not small. He has congestive heart failure and COPD and is on Oxygen. I'm trying to see if he can get interested in more healthy foods but he doesn't like them. Oh well.
