Healthy Journey Day 57

Intentions for the day:  Make dessert for dinner at my brother's house tonight.  Make phone calls for hubby.  Get my daily work done


Morning Blood Sugar:  95.   Felt hungry as I was going to sleep last night.  That is a very odd thing for me.  Perhaps it is a good thing too!

Exercise: Skipped...was sending hubby on a road trip, and my leg still hurts.  Think it is time to call for help on that.

Daily Wins:  took care of business stuff, including a lot of phone calls...not my favorite thing.   Made a yummy dessert (that took all day!)  Avoided extra purchases at the store.  So far I have stayed in budget this month.  Feeling great about that!

"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.
