Walking Walking Walking

Terri and Julie (neighbors) decided we should start walking during the week.  LOVING IT!!!  We had so much fun last night walking on the ma pa trail.  We did 3.5 miles and it felt great!!! 

Last night for dinner was SPAGHETTI!!  This is a big deal b/c we haven't really eaten pasta in my house in about 3+ months.  CRAZY!  I used whole grain pasta and my sauce from scratch (super simple)...here is what I did: 
What?

• 5 cloves of garlic (through press)
• 1/2 small yellow onion
• 2 sweet Italian turkey sausage links, squeezed from casings
• 1/2 C. White Wine (optional)
• large can crushed tomatoes
• 1/4 C. parm cheese
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1tsp onion powder
• 1 tbsp oregano
• 1/4 C. Splenda

How?

• In large skillet saute onions til soft and add garlic and sausage. 
• Brown the sausage like it were ground beef (squeeze it from the casing).
• add wine and bring to a boil, simmer for 10 minutes til reduced by half.
• Add the remaining ingredients bring to a boil then cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

Yum!!!  I should take a picture next time!
Pretty healthy, I don't know the stats (nor do I care)

I'm getting ready to start a great book: The Diet Survivor's Handbook:...by Judith Matz and Ellen Frankel.  I can't wait to read it.  It is all about creating a healthy relationship with food and intuitive eating which I'm siked to learn more about!!! 

I want to lose 9lbs by June 1st...pushing it!  But we'll see..
