I didn't post yesterday, and that was an intentional omission. Calories in yesterday: 2400. Calories burned: 0,
I ate healthy but frequently and did not work out at all. Did take a nap though; that's becoming a Saturday 'thing'. Meals on Saturday: Bkfst, 1 C. oatmeal with blueberries, almonds and honey. Lunch, grilled chicken salad at Rod N' Gun. Dinner, 2 tortilla wraps with chicken, mayo, feta cheese & romaine lettuce, 2 cups chicken rice soup. Snack 1, 1 C. sf/ff butterscotch pudding w/ 5 rf gingersnaps. Snack 2, 4 cups plain popcorn with 1/2 cup lowfat granola and 2 glasses of wine.
Today I got out and walked. I had to pick up a prescription at Wal-Mart, so I decided to walk there. I shopped a bit and then walked to Celoron next. It was very pleasurable to be out in the bright sunshine for that length of time, although it was cold and windy. The pavement was (pretty much) dry!
I should mention that I don't mosey along; I walk briskly and work up a sweat.  I don't run, but I'm a power-walker.
Meals today: Bkfst., 3 pancakes with some added granola & blueberries, light margarine and 1/4 cup syrup.
Lunch,  1/2 cup hummus with 1 C. baby carrots and 20 Special K herb crackers, and 1 C. green seedless grapes. Dinner, 2 1/2 cups whole wheat thin spaghetti with spaghetti sauce made with chopped yellow pepper &  ground turkey, topped with 1 tbsp parmesan.
I'm wearing some jeans today that I haven't worn for several months because they were too tight. That's a good feeling. Tomorrow morning I WILL get up for spin (!).
