Anyone who knows me knows I don’t like to cook. In fact sometimes I’ll go hungry rather than prepare my own food, but I think I have found a solution.

I love a quality steak and actually a lean steak with limited side dishes is fairly low in calories. And steaks are easy to prepare.

I’m still watching my weight. I’m back on Weight Watchers points. I wasn’t losing weight on the fasting program so I’ll create my own rules which combine the Weight Watchers with Fasting.

I ordered a big box of frozen Omaha steaks. In the box were bacon wrapped filets, chicken breasts, premium beef patties and 1″ thick sirloin-type steaks. I figure I can prepare very tasty meals easily.

Today I’ll try one of the sirloin-type steaks, a baked potato and make a green salad with vinegar for dressing.

I plan to eat only within an eight hour period from noon to 8 p.m. During those eight hours, I’ll consume a maximum of 22 points. I’m determined to lose about 25 pounds. I lost a lot while watching points back about 2007 (but I only allowed myself 20 points). Now I’m on 22 points. Today I will wait until about 2:00 for my one main meal. If I’m careful, I should drop those pounds. Sure hope so!!

=======================

I slightly over-cooked the steak on my gas grill but it was very good and certainly enough! The baked potato was too much and I’m still munching on the salad. An excellent meal and I certainly don’t feel like I’m dieting.

I even had a small glass of merlot. Most of the time, I don’t care for such a heavy red wine but with steak it was perfect!!

So far today I’ve only used about 12 points. That leaves me with 10 more if I am craving something.
