Challenge Slowly Working

I have lost 8-pounds in the first 11-days. A drop in the bucket and 18 pounds less than my minimum before I have an alcoholic beverage. But it appears more and more likely that alcohol will have to wait. I'm becoming even more emboldened each day. I have been fighting off a bad cold the last couple of days, but the worst is behind me.

I have been trying to figure out what to eat. I think I was fooled by the salad people. In order to entice you to return they soak the greens in tasty dressing. I noted in the grocery store that a small amount of dressing equals 50 calories. They use a huge ladle of the stuff. You think you are eating well, when in fact it is packed with calories. I have bought my own greens with diet dressing at 5 calories a serving.

I may experiment with sushi. I will research it first before diving in. Someone told me that was the key. Only skinny people eat sushi.
