Tuesday, July 21

A great day! Ate a little heavy on the carbs, but oh well. Tomorrow's another day.

New thought: I'm going to have to cook dinner faster or move lunch back just a bit. I come home and I get the munchies. Before I know it I've had a handful of almonds, a spoonful of peanut butter and string cheese.

Tomorrow: start preparing dinner as soon as I walk in. Burn vanilla candle. Studies show people who burn vanilla candles (or have sweet scents like vanilla) while cooking are less likely to snack.

Note to self: Purchase truck load of vanilla candles.

B:
oatmeal, 1/2 tbsp flaxseed oil, 1/4 cup blueberries, Viactiv chew (for some vitamin D and calcium!)

S:
Publix almond bar

L:
tomato, basil, mozzarella quesadilla (see details in yesterday's dinner)

S:
handful of almonds
spoonful of peanut butter

D:
spaghetti pasta with a dash of olive oil, kosher salt, black pepper, feta cheese, walnuts and a few sticks of homemade flatbread

L:
small glass of OJ, small glass of Naked Protein juice, large glass of milk, 2 glasses of water, 2 glasses of Crystal Light pink lemonade

E:
Leslie Sansome's 1-mile walk (morning); 1 mile on treadmill plus arm weights (evening)

Mood:
Relaxed
