End of Week MLW Meal: Asian Grilled Salmon

Just got back after a long walk from the movies.  Not really a fan of musicals, but you just gotta check out how Tom Cruise could pull off an Axl Rose/Jon Bon Jovi act.  I think he did pretty well!  "Rock of Ages" was fun to watch - you'll get a good dose of LSS that you might find yourself humming a song or two on your way home (think 80s).  So that was a good exercise (from the walking, not singing) - probably 2-3 miles overall?  I got to start wearing my pedometer, if only I could find it... 
For lunch, I cooked grilled salmon again (per hubby's request) but this time around, it is Asian inspired - kind of teriyaki-ish.

I'm proud to say, in a matter of 5 days, I lost 3 lbs or maybe a little more. :-) Definitely encouraging... I give myself a pat on the back!  And tomorrow is the start of our Millennium Park Workout Session, so bring it on!  I just hope I don't faint...

MLW Meal # 3: Grilled Salmon with Capers

I am not going to post every single dish I'll be making 'til the day I get to my ideal weight!:-)  But this week is crucial as the first week always is... so this keeps me motivated.  I am very pleased with how this dish turned out - thank God for stove-top cast iron grille.  Also, my rule of thumb for making these healthy dishes - it shouldn't take me more than 30 minutes.
