Weekends can be tough on the health plan, but today went well. Stepped out to the Y this afternoon and did 30 minutes on the elliptical- whew! Surprising how easy it was to run out, do my half hour and come back home. It helps that the Y is only a mile away! Had a salad for lunch with romaine, chopped orange pepper, tomato, mushrooms and 1 cup leftover turkey salad made with light mayo. Supper was chicken stir-fry over brown rice- about 2 cups of chicken/veggies and 3/4 C. rice.
Tonight's snack- a whole wheat tortilla warmed in the microwave and spread with 1 tbsp natural peanut butter and a sprinkle of cinnamon. I cut it pizza-style into 6 pieces. It was chewy and sweet. If crunch is more your thing, crisp the tortilla in a frying pan with non-stick spray.
In between? Went in to work for about a half hour to iron out a computer issue, took a nice ride in the car with my hubby, read, blogged, and talked on the phone. Quiet day, but restful. Of course every day in our house includes some cuddle time with the doggies- they see too little of us on weekdays.
