Week 3, Day 3, Diet with Dianna

Today was my volunteer day working in the church offices. During the night we had a fierce Texas thunderstorm and I didn't get a lot of sleep. I usually carpool with my husband but 4 a.m was too early after only three hours of sleep--I slept in. My daughter fixed my breakfast! I was taken out for lunch, and I fixed a quick meal for dinner. Not a well planned day for menus. I did well, despite all of the above.

REVELATION KNOWLEDGE:
Yeowee! Swimming works out a lot of muscles. The workouts during my late afternoon swim has gotten a little bit more intense. I gave my body a harder push last night and my body is yelping, today. I am very sore. Sitting at work, today, I could feel the muscles in my back tiring sooner and I had to change positions, frequently.  Note to self...try not to overdue the exercise routine. Over-zealousness is not recommended. Try to get a good workout without fatiguing the muscles!

Breakfast:

Prepared by my beautiful and thoughtful daughter:
Special K Protein - 1 cup w/Unsweetened Silk Soy Milk & half packet of Stevia in the raw.
1 slice of bacon
1/2 Oroweat 100% Whole wheat sandwich thin - toasted w/1 teaspoon of butter.
1 cup coffee w/ half & half, 1/2 packet of Stevia in the Raw

Breakfast S/C Total: 1/1

No A.M Snack - I got a late start and then met my husband for an early lunch...only three and a half hours past between breakfast and lunch.  I wasn't real hungry, but I ate something, anyway; just a small portion.

Lunch:

"Cure" burger. (1/4 lb. double meat, fried egg, bacon, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, Hold the mayo, and huge poppy-seed egg bun.

Great date lunch with Wade. We went to one of our favorite hamburger joint - Bottlecap Alley Icehouse Grill. Good food and great music. 

NOW, I only ate about 1/3 of the burger - no bread, I requested NO mayonnaise (I really do not like Mayonnaise!!!!), and removed the tomato, even though it would have been alright for me to eat, I just didn't want it. I also ate about five french fries -- they are pretty decent size. That was it! I got full fast. Wade enjoyed the rest of my hamburger...he works out every weekday morning for one hour - weight lifting. 

Enjoyed the company! Love ya, Sweetie! ;)
