Only a .4lb loss for me last week, but at least it wasn't a gain, right?   Jason lost another 2.   He's been awesome about getting his exercise in and I'm so proud of him!

Here's our menu plan for the week:

Monday:  Jerk-rubbed catfish with spicy cilantro slaw (recipe to follow)
Tuesday:  Hamburgers (made with free-range beef),  fries?
Wednesday:  fish tacos, black beans (I'll post that recipe on Wed)
Thursday:  low-carb pasta w/ meat sauce, salad, maybe garlic bread
Friday:  leftovers
Saturday:  pizza night

4 (6 oz) catfish fillets
