6 Week - Day Two

My food:

Breakfast: 1 Granny Smith apple, 1 bowl of veggie rice (brown rice with peas/carrot/corn/green bean mix added) flavored with Bragg's.

Lunch: Breakfast salad

Dinner: Buffalo Chickpea dip (about 1 cup) with 2.5-3 cups of raw broccoli, a handful of raw carrots, one head of romaine leaves, 2 ears of corn on the cob

Later: Decaf coffee with a flavored creamer, 1 ear of corn

My Thoughts:

Today was okay. I was definitely grain/starch heavy with all that corn.  We were blessed with several dozen ears that needed to be cooked right away so we've been making use of that. I decided to have the corn in place of fruit as an evening dessert/snack since we ate an early dinner before rehearsal tonight.

And then there's rehearsal. I always want a coffee treat while we are down town. Something to perk me up for the stage. But, the creamer isn't needed and, really, I'm running around so much, I barely enjoy it.  So, tonight was my last coffee treat for rehearsal. I need to keep my bladder empty during the show anyways. ;)

Looking Ahead:

I've been marking and pinning some recipes to try this week.  I'm on the hut for something new for breakfast that will warm me up on these cold mornings.  In fact, my eleven year old is planning a big brunch for tomorrow since we are on a break from school this week.  I'll be glad to have just the two meals for the day tomorrow.

I'm also planning to make the move back to hot tea during the week and save my coffee drinking for co op mornings and the weekend.  I'm thinking back to the positive habits I built while losing weight before my pregnancy and I'm trying to get back to them again.
