Breakfast this morning was quite good. Tony, Ted and I went to the coffee shop at Balboa golf course. (Tony's favorite breakfast spot) I had 6 points of food and it was quite good. I ate two poached eggs, 1 slice of wheat toast , and a beautiful cup of fresh fruit. Later today we are going to my cousin John's house for appetizers and then off to a restaurant for dinner. I will try to post pictures and a description later.
Tonight we went to John and Pam Peterson's in Newport Beach. We had drinks and cheese and crackers at their house first, then we went to Mastro's Ocean Club for dinner. Needless to say, it was an eating extravaganza and I failed to count points today. Tomorrow is a new day.

Well, I am still trying to learn this blogging thing. Last night I went to Vino, a Tapas bar with Tony and Ted. We sat at the bar and chatted with Stuart, the bartender from England. It was my first time there and it was really a nice place. We started with a ceaser's salad and fried calamari. I have to admit, I went with good intentions planning only to eat scallops and salad, however the plates were all small and so beautifully prepared I tried a bit of everything.

This is my first attempt to blog. I am planning to keep a journal of my weight loss and track what I eat. For starters I will post a picture of my delicious meal. I hope to improve my blogging skills as I go along.

Patti's Plate

Well, what is going to make this weight loss journey different from the rest that I have been on? I have decided to blog and journal every dinner that I eat. This time will be different. This time I will meet my goal. When I was picking out my user name for this blog, I started with Fatty Patti. Then, the many years of weight watchers advice echoed in my ears. I need to be positive, not negative. I chose the name Pretty Patti. So, please join Pretty Patti, and watch me eat my way to a thinner, healthier and happier me. I would love the company, so if you have food ideas or helpful hints please feel free to post. I would love to hear from you even if you just want to say hi!
