If only candy or any other fun food (crackers, bread, any carb or sweet) could hang around my house in a drawer for months on end, all my problems would be solved! And it would really help if I only ate when I was hungry. That’s the place I need to get to…

Cath ,
Actually it was a soup I’d made a while ago that was already combined and frozen:

It was good though!

Lyn ,
Frozen pizza sounds good to me!

Caitlin ,
Sorry, I’ve only been to Myrtle Beach once when I was little!

‘Snuck’ more referred to the fact that I didn’t bother to photograph or anything – not that I was feeling guilty for eating some chocolate. My thought process was just “I would love a bite of chocolate to cleanse my palate.” Checks the chocolate drawer and locates a Halloween mini Hersey bar. Takes bite. Asks Matt if he wants the rest. He accepts I wasn’t hungry but I wanted the taste so I didn’t really need the whole thing.

Believe it or not, I was wondering lately, after having read your blog for quite a while now, whether you ever just grabbed a candy bar. Or anything similarly “unhealthy” that most people have at least once in a while. I feel better now that you had that bite of Hershey’s chocolate. You don’t need to sneak it though; you exercise your brains out and I think there’s room for a treat in a healthy person’s diet periodically. I understand the tenacity, though. I ate very little of that sort of thing when I was on my single-minded loss of 123 lbs. A glimpse into your thought process would be appreciated as I have fallen off the wagon and gained some of those pounds back (thankfully not all of them) and I’m looking for some inspiration to get back in the diet mode… your will power is like mine was back when I was doing so well. Can’t seem to get that mojo back…

Love the rolls and I am obsessed with watermelon. I have to eat it every day. I love summer!

those jalapeno rolls look really good!

btw, I know you are located in NC, and I am going to be going on vacation to SC this week. I will be staying in the Myrtle Beach area but we go out to eat pretty much anywhere within an hour radius! I was curious as to if you had any suggestions of restaurants in the area? Of course, this is a long shot considering that NC and SC are 2 diff. states, but just a question! Thanks!

You know what’s so cool… you obviously WANT to eat healthy. It’s a habit and you just go and look for frozen stuff to throw together into a healthy, yummy meal. Me, if there is nothing obvious in the fridge, I take it as an excuse to eat a frozen pizza!! I need to take a cue and scout out the frozen VEGGIES and get creative with my meals!

I am very jealous of those jalapeno rolls – they look fantastic!

Okay, Kath –

Just to clarify – you combined butternut squash with the lentil soup?? I love both of them alone, but together? Were the tastes really that complimentary?

On another note, I just started reading your blog (addicted now, actually) and I love that you go by “Kath” instead of “Kat,” as my friends, family and husband have always called me “Cath”!
