It's Ash Wednesday - a day of fasting...sort of. Not totally fasting. 2 small meals, and one main meal which shouldn't exceed the size of the 2 small meals, and no snacking in between. This. Is. Hard. !!!!!
So I ate a cup of dry cheerios for bfast, w/ my coffee. Lunch was a piece of multi grain panini bread w/ a tsp of peanut butter, and somewhere between 1/2 and 1 oz of mixed nuts/seeds/raisins. (I'll round off to 1 for the sake of convenience.) Dinner was 1c. of black bean soup w/ 1/4 c. white rice. Had another coffee after dinner. Then my daughter asked me to make her a late dinner (since she hates beans), so I was up in the kitchen thinking of all the food I wanted to eat. I actually had the No Pudge Brownie box in my hands, then put it back and reached for the whole wheat pita chips w/ hummus. I figured if I was going to break my fast, I'd at least control myself against the BIGGER temptation for chocolate, and stick to something healthy. I had 6 chips w/ about a Tbsp hummus. So I fell short of fasting as planned, but I did the best I could do - 1st day of lent and plenty of room (and time) for growth in self restraint. >sigh< Just not there yet.
Today I ate 19 pts.
No Exercise (2 days now! Ack!)
TOTAL: 19 pts
