I love the way my palate has changed.  I no longer crave sugar and am enjoying my small meals often plan.  I break up my day with brief stints of exercise, followed by a high protein snack or meal within 30 minutes to aid recovery and reduce muscle soreness.  I am allowing myself to use some prepacked frozen preservative-free meals to make it easier for me to keep on track.  

My breakfast today.  141 Calories, including my supplements and Yogi Blueberry Slim Tea with fresh ginger.

  • 2 Ounces Chicken Breast - dry sauteed and steamed
  • 2 Cups chopped fresh spinach sauteed in a tiny bit of sesame and olive oils with a splash of Bragg's Amino Acids and crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup of Red Currants (fresh from our garden).

Since we started late today my pre-workout snack is 2 Green Chews (35 Calories) and a bottle of water

Walk with Leslie - with 2 pound hand weight exercises

Plan for the rest of today. 

  • After Workout Snack:  Creamy Vanilla ProFIT Protein Shake 
  • Lunch:  Smart Ones Asian-Style Beef and Broccoli 
  • Joel Harper Fitness DVD
  • After Workout Snack:  Medium Granny Smith Apple with 2 servings PB2 
  • Dinner:  Ranchero Beef with Chipotle Sweet Potatoes and Broiled Asparagus  
  • Physical Therapy Workout
  • Snack:  Smart Ones Roasted Chicken with Herb Gravy with an extra 2 ounces of sauteed chicken mixed in. 

This is working for me.

CARPE DIEM!!!
