Bread Bowl Alternative

'E' here:
     55+ degrees on November 4th in Minnesota!  Although it was a day off our scheduled workout, I couldn't help but to "sneak" in a walk around my favorite area lake.
     So, I get to work today and open my e-mail to find one from Mama - with the subject line, 'Skinny'. 
The message went on to read:
That is how I felt this am...until I put my jeans on, then my fake sense of how I look was destroyed
How's your day!

My response:
You are funny.
Actually, I had the same fake sense. I looked at a pair of jeans that I haven't worn in months and thought to myself...."no way am I going to even attempt that." So, I put on a pair that had been worn a couple of times (you know...stretched out a bit) and I thought I would be comfortable...but no...they are feeling a bit snug.  Instant reality check.  Instant motivation to keep going.


     Enough about that...here was dinner.  Half of a squash...straight from Mama's garden (baked, plain) with minestrone soup and broccoli.  Very filling.  Very low calorie.  Very tasty.
