Menu for the week of 3/4/19

I've been struggling with putting together menus because I have issues revolving around food. Precooking for the week is helping with some of the issues. At the same time, it sucks up just about a whole day. I'm slowly making progress towards menus that are friendly for everyone in the household. The kids actually will eat pulled pork if I don't put bbq sauce on it. And it's a good thing if I don't cook it with bbq sauce because that makes it lower carb and better for me.

The recommendation of the South Beach Diet Cookbook has been really helpful. I've been making some of the recipes and finding things similar online. I've started making my own sauces based off of the South Beach Diet's version of things like bbq sauce. Because I'm so carb sensitive, I have been really careful not to use sugar in anything. It's frustrating but I think I'm making progress.

Now I just have to figure out why over the last few weeks my fasting numbers have been high. I'm tweaking things like what I am eating for a snack and when I eat snack. I just can't figure it out.
