Day 2

Sunday, January 3, 2010

Today at church the subject of the sermon was how important it is to have a plan and then God will lead you and show you the steps to take. (Proverbs 16:9 We can make our plans, but the LORD determines our steps.) Pastor told us that "failing to plan is planning to fail." I thought to myself this is soooo true is all areas of our lives. This also applies to my new healthy eating plan!! So today I went to get groceries, yes in the 15 degree weather. I made some black bean burgers that I will use for lunches throughout the week. I figured if I plan ahead what I am going to eat for lunch, then I won't be tempted to grab some junk food to fill my stomach.

Breakfast :
Yes, we had no bananas today! So 1 slice of 100% Whole Wheat toast with Regular Peanut butter
1 Orange
Cup of black tea
Snack:
Cup of coffee (Black) in church
Lunch:
1 cup of 100% Whole Wheat Pasta
1 1/2 Cups Broccoli
Cooked with EVOO and some garlic, sprinkle of parm cheese
Snack:
5 celery stick with hummus
Dinner:
Honey Ginger chicken stir fry - consisted of white meat chicken chunks, red, yellow and orange bell pepper mixed with some brown rice. Was a Martha Stewart Every Food recipe. Very Good!!
Had about 2 cups of everything mixed together.
Still full from that meal so no snack tonight just some green tea.
Ok had to edit this - got hungry and had a hanful of salted almonds last night!
