azdesertroseSo I've started My Food Diary (thanks for the rec, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
madlori), and Yourself! Fitness for the Xbox, because I have GOT to lose some weight.
I figure having to be accountable to the food journal will guilt me into making better choices, and Maya (the "personal trainer" from Yourself!) has me on 15 minute workouts right now (because I'm severely out of shape). I can do 15 minutes per day, though, and work my way up to longer workouts.
I went out yesterday and bought sports bras, because I discovered (again) that having D-cup breasts and jumping around doing a workout is not the world's most comfortable sensation, at least not without some support for said D-cups. I went a little overboard in Target though, and now I'm going to have to be a little careful with the grocery shopping else I overdraw the checking account. I bought three sports bras, some nail care stuff, a pumice stone for my poor ratty feet, and an electric carving knife because I'm tired of carving with regular knives. You have so much more control with an electric knife. I also bought a couple other kitchen gadgets, a potato peeler (which I can't believe I didn't have in the first place), and a potato ricer (for mashing potatoes to make homemade mash--so much yummier than the instant kind).
Pot roast for supper tonight. Yum.

The potato peeler with the catapult (slingshot) shape and the blade across the top is the one I use.Its terrific, I wish I'd discovered it years ago, and I love my potato ricer, principally because you don't have to peel, just boil the push through and the skins stay behind like a garlic crusher!
