Breakfast: quinoa/steel cut oats mix, banana, splash of almond milk
Lunch: veg soup, brussel sprouts, brown rice and some beans followed by a cup of tea
Dinner: I know it will involve mashed potatoes and broccoli with maybe a cheeze sauce (made with cauliflower), and probably an orange
exercise: I walked 3 miles today and remembered to stretch afterwards. YAY!
Today was grocery store day. My chance to get out of the house. Not many people there at 7am and that is fine with me ! Got it all done quickly and home before my husband woke up. Of course all the hauling in and putting away was done and then he came downstairs.
After lunch I really wanted an orange. My mind was on that and it was hard to shake. I like to have my second fruit after dinner so I put it off realizing that it was calling me and I was starting to think things like "it won't hurt to have 3 fruits today" or "I can skip the fruit after dinner and it will be ok". All of that is true but I am afraid that going along with these thoughts will lead to other self talks and I want to avoid those. So....I fixed myself a cup of herbal tea and came here to my computer to type this in. Now I
feel better.
I bought a celery root today while shopping. Never have used one before. I looked up recipes when I got home and I will have to pick up a couple more veggies and then make soup. It is an ugly vegetable but people have a lot of good to say about it. I will see. Vegan Under Pressure cookbook has a recipe that sounds good so I will make it this week. Trying to get soup in before my lunch or dinner.
Really not much else to report. Today I am continuing to: Walk daily, track what I eat, survive and enjoy my afternoon without eating everything in the house (I put a star on my calendar for that one
)
