Before After

Thursday -- come on Friday!

Ah, the end of the week draws near -- my favorite time is Friday night. You've still got 2 sleeps before work again. LOL  My left arm has a nice bruise going on from yesterday's botched blood draw.  And both arms are a bit tender from being poked and prodded.

Didn't get a walk in as it was raining, and had to get dinner going when I got home, but later while listening to some favorite tunes, I was dancing and getting my heart rate up for about 10-15 minutes.  It felt really good.  Here's what was on the menu today:

Today's Menu:
Special K Forest Berries (110g) topped with
1 medium sliced banana, and 1.25 cup lite soy milk
Leftover Chickpea & Swede stew
Garden Vegetable Chili w/2T Toffutti Cream Cheese stirred through
1c Roasted (not salted) peanuts, in the shell

Totals: 1575 calories (59/17/24)

Those peanuts tasted great! I wanted a snack that would bring my carbs down below 60%, and they did the trick.  I can't have peanut butter in the house. I love peanut butter and it would definitely become a binge food.  But peanuts -- the kind you have to work for to get them out of their shells and then skin them before you pop them in your mouth -- well with those you can only eat one or two at a time, whereas the ones that are already shelled are so easy to eat by the handful.  Nope -- this is better. And I haven't had them in a long time, they were good!

Off to catch a show before bedtime -- have a great night all!
