Sleep... or should I say LACK OF SLEEP

Hi All... How's everyone enjoying fall so far?

I am wondering if a day or days will come when I actually get more than 3-4 hours of sleep. I've never been a good sleeper but good lord, this is getting ridiculous. I can't remember when I've slept more than two hours at a time, and the last few weeks I'm only getting 3-4 total most nights. This lack of sleep is starting to affect my interest in exercising, I just don't have the energy. It's much easier to sit my butt in front of the TV or computer. I'm sure if it keeps up my eating habits are sure to suffer and I'm so close to getting back to my WW Lifetime goal, and I was hoping to surpass that goal but I'm having my doubts now. :o(
I haven't been to creative in the food department lately, but I have been staying on plan. For lunch Monday it was a wrap. Which consisted of a WW tortilla, 1 TBSP of roasted garlic hummus, onion, 3 Slices of PC Piri Piri deli chicken (delish) and topped that with some left over Tabbouleh. Then I grilled it in my George Foreman Grill. Lunch wouldn't be complete without a large green salad.

Supper was a pasta dish that consists of Lean ground chicken, chicken stock, onions, celery, carrots, tomatoes, tomato paste,wine, spices, parmesan cheese, and of course pasta. I'll post the actual recipe later.



Oh I almost forgot. The Curried Cauliflower Soup was a hit with my sweetie. I was thrilled. He is anti vegetable, and loves his meat and potatoes, so whenever I can sneak good veggies in I'm happy.

Supper yesterday was baked haddock, baked sweet potato for me, and baked garlic potatoes for hubby. I also made oven roasted broccoli for the first time and it was very yummy. Just a little olive oil , salt, pepper and of course broccoli. The broccoli has almost a nutty flavour.
My food pics are on my other computer so I'll post them later. I do however, have a couple pics of the sunsets from the last couple of nights so I thought I would post them. We have some beautiful sunsets in Porters Lake.






Roast beef and all the trimmings for supper tonight, maybe all the yummy comfort food will help me sleep, fingers crossed!!!

Hmm, when I roast broccoli, it doesn't have a yummy nutty flavor, it has a stinky broccoli flavor! I must be doing something wrong. I end up drowning it in garlic and olive oil or cheese to truly enjoy it.

Sounds like lots of healthy eating!
