New Year's Incentives

 Mom doesn't do resolutions and she keeps hearing the word "incentive" so that's what we're going with.   

She is going to try to eat healthier and lose the five pounds that she gained since Molly's passing.   She has decided that we will be seeing lots of salads around here with spinach~

My sissy's salad contained raw sugar snap peas so we'll be going with those too~
And who doesn't like carrots?!
And what about the tasty grape tomato~
She included provolone cheese, which she wasn't willing to share.  And we'll be adding hard boiled eggs too and maybe some chick peas!

That will be tonight's dinner☺

Love ya lots♥

  1. We love your new header photo by the way. Remember dieting doesn't work, it is a lifestyle change that will keep one on track over time. A bit more exercise with you and some changes in diet. I'm sure you will get your mom in shape in no time.

  3. We're not big fans of veggies unless they are covered in a nice meat sauce or gravey like in Chinese food. BOL!

  4. It sounds very good, unfortunately mine Mommy needs to go the "other way", so she is trying to eat more, I keep gaining, she keeps losing. Oh dear ...

  5. Lulu: "Duke! I love crunchy vegetables, like carrots and lettuce bones! Leafy stuff like spinach, though, I just chew up and spit out on the floor. I haven't tried a sugar snap pea yet but if it's crunchy I'm sure I would like it!"

  7. What a beautiful new header photo! Good luck with the diet. The weight goes on so much easier than it comes off.

    1. P.S. I didn't mean to sound discouraging. I was speaking of my personal experience. You're off to a good start. 🙂

  10. Our Mom is a salad-a-holic. She could eat a good salad for all three meals of the day. Her salad contains lots and lots of veggies. She said she is going to have to look for some of those snap peas soon too.

  12. It's only 5 pounds.. Don't worry, you’ll get there! I probably have to lose 9 pounds, I can't be bothered yet.🤣😂🤣😂

    I think I’ll start with cutting sugar intake first.

    I miss ice-cream,
