EAT ROSE PETALS
I eat a rose petal a day when I'm given a rose from a date or just as a gesture from a friend. I do not watch the roses as they die. What I do is pluck a petal off each day and enjoy the healing it has to offer. Yes it is somewhat bitter, however, it is my belief that it is exactly that bitterness that ignites the powerful healing a rose has!
Love Cerise.
Health and Nutrition
Because petals contain about 95 percent water, their nutritional value is limited and their calorie count is low. However, the petals do contain some vitamin C, though less than that found in rose hips, the fruit of the rose that appears after the flowers drop. Ancient Chinese medicine used roses to treat digestive disorders, the pain from injuries and menstrual irregularities.
Culinary Adventures
Eating a varied diet full of interesting foods is the best way to ensure that you get plenty of vitamins and minerals. Adding rose petals to your repertoire allows you to explore new cuisines. Middle Eastern cuisine, for instance, uses rose water and rose petals in a variety of dishes. Try Persian stuffed dumpling squash with rose petals from Epicurious.com.
Good Feelings
Cooking with rose petals and eating rose petals can make you feel good. Leon Seltzer, a clinical psychologist writing in “Psychology Today,” explains that the delight of discovery, of being spontaneous and adventuresome, can make you feel good about yourself. Eating rose petals may seem like a trivial activity, but if doing so reminds you to savor your food and your life, it will take on a deeper meaning.

LOST TWO POUNDS
SOOO I lost two pounds and I'm back down to 142. Whew, feels good. I really do not like the feeling of gaining weight. I want to remain 140-142. At 5'9 I think it's a good size for my height.
How'd I lose the two pounds? Well the same way I just lost the 30lbs since December. I exercised, didn't eat after 6pm and ate more lighter veggies.
However, today for lunch I'm having baked veggies. Still on the lighter side. No heavy provisions such as potatoes.
Here is what is in my veggie pot!
Grape tomatoes
kale ( I cut the stalk as well and added it in to give a little crunch)
carrot
spinach
red pepper
orange pepper
green pepper
dulse seaweed
sprinkled with some veggie spices
drizzled with sesame oil.
I'm baked it on high until the veggies are tender, it's done now and I'm about to dig in!
I once heard that the more cooked the veggies are the less nutritious they are, however, today I just feel like something warm and tender.
LOVE CERISE.

WEIGHT UPDATE::: GAINED A COUPLE OF POUNDS
SOOOO I was doing very well. I went down past my goal weight which was 145 at 5'9, for me that's a good weight.
I went down to 140. I felt good. Then the patio season hit last week and with three days of the long weekend bbq's and sipping draft, I put on four pounds!!!!
I'm not fretting, after all at 144 I'm still one pound under my goal weight and I feel it will be no problem shedding the four pounds again. I don't feel they are fat yet, they're just water weight. However, if I don't get tough on myself now then it could mean that I might lose control. Soooo patio season or not, I'm hitting the workouts again- oh yeah, that's another thing, I haven't worked out for over four days, so I'm sure that has had an affect, but no worries, I'm working out tonight and that's that.
I'll let you know when I'm back at 140.
