Tuesday Exercise and Food Notes

I've had a weird two days! Walked yesterday, that was pretty good because my shins had rested. Arch supports arrived, I like them! Wondering if I should get the next size up or not.

Last night's dinner was really delicious and I could tell I overate, but nothing like I used to! And this was chicken, vegetables and a small portion of brown rice! Still, not what I want to be doing (overeating anything).

Have had several servings of chocolate chips and peanut butter. I'm tracking it, but the chocolate chips pack 8 sugars per serving, so I want to keep that down.

Today I ate breakfast but then didn't eat til after 1pm...that's just too long. I think I need to "schedule" a snack around 11:30ish/noonish in the 100 calorie range.

Don't know what to do about leftovers. I love leftovers but then when do I eat my salad!? So today, no salad because I ate leftovers for lunch (LFL). Hmmmmmm. And what to do about dinner...I could easily eat a wrap or leftovers for lunch and have a salad for dinner. I think I need to "schedule" my salad for lunchtime, maybe I can toss some leftovers in with the salad!

Just another note about water...I don't sip it. If I take the time to put the glass to my lips, I take three large gulps. It goes really fast that way!

I'm unhappy because:
-I didn't walk today (went to grocery store instead)
-overate last night, had peanut butter and chocolate
-overate today, too! more pb & choc (I think I'll put that away for a bit) and had a difficult time tracking lunch & dinner

I don't need to be upset by this...move on and chock it up to a bump in the (long) road ahead of me. Wait a minute, I'm looking at my numbers, I've over with calories, fat and protein but 30% under on my carbs...maybe that's why I'm having some cravings...hmmmm. I may need to bring up the carbs...

OH! I did the DDP YOGA Diamond Dozen...well, TRIED it. There's a free video on the TeamDDPYoga.com community site. I'm going to give it a try for awhile and then maybe order the program if I'm actually doing it. What amazing cardio if you keep those muscles clenched! This is something I really CAN DO! Dynamic resistance is going to be 100 times better than anything I've thought about so far including the trampoline. I like the idea of doing a simple bounce for my calves and just to get the pull on my fluids, but I would need a steel armor support bra to do anything more than that! Ahck!! A lot of "low impact cardio" workouts I simply cannot do because of all the knee actions.

I think I'll do the DDP Yoga and my walk tomorrow and see how I feel. Then maybe the DDP Yoga M W F...not sure.

OH, the fresh asparagus! One of my favorites! Clean asparagus, snap off ends, lay on foil covered cookie sheet or broiler pan, toss some kosher salt and fresh ground pepper, then drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar...cook for about 12 minutes on 350 or 400 (tonight the oven was set at 400).
