Healthy Journey Day 46


Morning Blood Sugar:  100  Happy to see it.  I ate enough fries last night, I thought I'd be over.

Exercise:  Erik's Live workout.  I woke up feeling a little sore and wanted to do something easier that heavy weights today.  Erik is always full of great thoughts, advice and a good roar!



Breakfast:
Time: 7:30
Hunger  Level *:  2
Ate:  grapefruit
Comments:  These have really hit the spot lately.  Yum!

Snack:
Time: 10:00
Hunger Level*:  2
Ate: Protein Chocolate Milk
Comments:  Really easy post workout snack.   I don't know if that link works or not...but I'm sad to see it is currently out of stock.  :(


Lunch:
Time:  12:50
Hunger Level*:  2
Ate:  veggie soup toast and cheese
Comments:  I love cheese in soup.  Mm. Well I just love cheese!!! So it took some effort not to put 2 or three slices inside my bowl. I'm dunking the cheese toast in it.  Still tasty.  :).  I also ate a piece of cake.  Half while waiting for the soup to warm.  The other half after.  I was rather hungry!



Snack:
Time: 4 pm
Hunger Level*: 2
Ate: chocolate orange sticks
Comments:  In a rush...hungry and just grabbed something.  It's time to make my snack box!

Dinner:
Time: 6 pm
Hunger Level*: 2
Ate: Rigatoni and Green bean Casserole
Comments:  Plans change...The hamburger that was supposed to be for last nights dinner, ended up rigatoni, and I am making fajitas tomorrow.  Stew on Saturday or Sunday I would think...  A yummy dinner.  We even sat around the table again.   I had the kids help me clean up afterwards, using a ticket as a reward.  My daughter got into the swing of things and earned quite a few more.  It seems the dodots system is going to be a great addition to our home!


Water intake:  64 oz

"Every time you start to eat, check your hunger level.  Ideally, aim for around a level of 3 to begin eating.  If you are at a 5 or above, you are not biologically hungry.  If you are at 2 or lower, you're likely over hungry and at risk for overeating."  Scale and comments taken from the book "Intuitive Eating" by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch.
