I think I've mentioned before that I'm able to stick to this healthier food choices plan I'm doing in part because of Lean Cuisine ... oh I also have the occasional Smart Ones/WW, Healthy Choice or One of the other brands, but Lean Cuisine just seems to have a LOT more selection ... at least in my market. Probably my current favorite is the (Spa Cuisine collection) Pecan Chicken .... it has just enough bits of pecans in the rice and veggies to give a great nutty flavor and the chicken is in a light brown gravy/sauce .. yummy!! I usually have it for my Sunday night dinner as a treat. Others that I really like are the Sweet and Sour Chicken, and the Pannini sandwichs are pretty good as well ... usually a treat I allow myself for either Saturday or Sunday ... though they are a few more calories than most of the other entrees, it makes for a nice treat during the weekend.

I have to say that I'm feeling quite proud of myself tonight ... for reasons not worth the time it would take to explain ... for about 7-8 months now I've been doing my grocery shopping on-line and have it delivered .... the only exceptions have been maybe 4 or 5 total trips to my favorite Farmers(style) Market ... and the last time I was there was well before Thanksgiving ... Once I started on this eating plan, I haven't really wanted to go to the grocery store because I wasn't sure I could deal with the temptations to be found there (on-line shopping is much more easily controlled ... no smells from the bakery, etc.) Tonight, I had to go to the grocery store to get something that I haven't been able to get through on-line delivery and also had to get some index cards for work on Monday a.m. (that was what really got me to go if you can believe it) .... I'm happy and pleased to report that I bought only what I planned to, allowed myself to buy a couple more items in the 100 calorie serving packs for when I need that extra treat and left the store feeling very good about it ... still will be doing my usual on-line shopping for quite awhile though, the other factors are still an issue.
