After a week of sugar indulgences, I knew something had to change. Namely, I had to take back my self control. So I did today. Of course, it was made much easier by the farmers market shopping the day before and by staying home, rather than stopping by every bakery in town.
So most of day 7 was scheduled as a writing day. I'm having such a good time with the NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) challenge. After last night, I'm now over 30,000 words. Hooray! But, man cannot live by words alone... at least this gal can't, so here goes on the food breakdown.
Breakfast:cinnamon toast and an apple.
Lunch: Broccoli Cheddar soup (lots of broccoli, carrots and potatoes, little cheddar and no cream) served with garlic Romano bread and a chocolate chip oatmeal cookie
Snacks: Peanut butter pretzels and a Lara Bar (dates, peanuts, chocolate chips and sea salt - seriously, that is the ingredient list)
Dinner: Sauteed spinach with garlic, nutmeg, bacon and goat cheese served with Garlic Romano bread.
See, much better. Especially if you add to that a lovely 3 mile walk at Forest Park with the last mile going uphill for most of the way. Plus, writing over 3000 words yesterday. Definitely, a better day.
Now it is time to grab a quick bowl of cereal and make my way to the pool fir another session of water aerobics.
Be happy and healthy!
