I can't wait to try that turkey meatball recipe. I really want to find a good recipe for turkey burgers, I may try and adapt your recipe for a burger and see what happens.

I used to drink a lot of soda. I decided that when I moved to SE KY last week for work that I would stop drinking so much soda and drink more water. Plus I now live on the second floor so I have to climb two flights of stairs every day. Last week was my first week here and my body felt so much better. I was drinking more water. Since my work schedule is more regular, I am able to eat lunch in my office and only went out to eat once for dinner and it wasn't fast food. There are only a few places to eat around here, and most of them are fast food. If I forget my lunch I can easily come home and eat, right now. In a few weeks that will not be the case. I slept better, never had a headache, wasn't worn out when I woke up very early in the morning. I did have one soda a day, but I drank a LOT of water.

This weekend I went back to my old ways. I was stuck inside the house most of the day yesterday waiting for a tech to come and then once he finally came and went we had a bad storm. I was out of water, but I had soda. And I drank way too much. It isn't recommended to drink or cook with the water here due to diesel spills in the water supply, mining run-off, etc. A co-worker told me about a water delivery service, so I need to get on top of that since I need to buy my water.

I feel crappy that I did so well during the week and then messed up yesterday. But I went out today and bought more food for the week and water, so I can get back on track again. I need to get back on track again.

Tonight I bought some boneless, skinless chicken breast tenders and some tortellini and plan on making a pasta salad for lunch for a few days loosely based on the recipe that jelli posted a while back.
