Here’s to healthy eating.
:rofl:
I skipped breakfast, had some Baked Lays chips instead of lunch (we were out, and the sandwich was too horrible to eat–I prefer my roast beef cooked, not mooing at me as I take a bite), came home and scarfed down some chicken & rice soup, then went on a nice walk–with a smoothie in hand. Yep. Healthy. 
OTOH, I’ve only had about 600 calories today so far. AND the smoothie was an “instead of cake” kind of thing. I hear the call of the chocolate cake again, but then the word “smoothie” popped into my head so I figured someone up there wanted me to get some fruit.
Um. Yeah. God wanted me to have that smoothie.
I did buy myself a Step thingy today…you know, the plastic thingies to jump on and off while you sweat to music. And I found my gym bag, which has my heart rate monitor in it, and I AM going to start working out again.
The day after tomorrow.
I’d do it tomorrow morning, but I have this pesky abdominal ultrasound scheduled. No, don’t ask me why I can’t workout in the afternoon. Then I’d have to make something up, something that sounds really good, when the truth is I just know better. Unless there’s a pool or karate involved, I just won’t do it later.

Thumper, keep it up. You rock! And good luck with the u/s.

600 cals doesn’t seem like enough. But hey, a smoothie while walking…my hero! :hug:

Good luck with the u/s. Don’t worry about making something up. Don’t have to here. You make the “date” to start the day after tomorrow (friday the 13th btw) and that’s when you do it.

Voice of concern here - skipping breakfast isn’t the greatest, and just chips for lunch? Make sure you eat healthy, but you are eating. 600 calories seems low to me too. The failure of many diets is that people try to not eat, and then all they wind up doing is starving their body which naturally fights back and tries to save every single fat cell available.
Just concerned.

You went for the good stuff and not the bad. KUDOS!
