My Posting Philosophy, Marinated Olives And Cheese, And The Snake Does The Unexpected

You may have noticed that I’m not posting as often and when I do it is often more than one topic.  The reason I don’t post as often is that I don’t have as much to write about since we don’t RV and they contain more topics because we don’t cook as many meals that are worthy of a full blog post.  Bev and I are both losing weight and to do that, we cook and eat more meagerly.  But since my blog is my journal and the home for most of our recipes, I want to keep doing it, at least for a while longer - I actually write some posts and don’t publish them to be sure I have the info.  I’ve been taking Zepbound to lose weight for three months (37 lbs so far) and after a recent doctor visit, I realized I was not getting all of the nutrition that I needed (especially protein) so I’ve opted to change things up a little and have my diet be more Mediterranean like (more beans, olives, fish), eating more meat protein, and adding a protein shake each day - not enough protein is why muscle mass is loss when taking the new weight loss drugs.
