Well... yesterday was an interesting day..... I wasn't really hungry ALL day. I did have a relatively busy day at work, but I just wasn't that hungry. I didn't eat my afternoon snack until 5:00.... I had our meals already made b/c it was a "Fish In Foil" day which I had vacuum-sealed and put in the freezer the 2 "left-over" servings... that was super nice! :) Well... since we were having a night-owl after our business meeting last night, we were going to Salsarita's. I just had my dinner there.... and followed the plan pretty much perfect... I just had my Trim Body System book with me, looked at what all exchanges that were scheduled for dinner, and ended up getting a whole wheat tortilla (starch exchange) with 3 oz of grilled chicken (3 protein exchanges), a little bit of lettuce, salsa, onions (all = to about 1 vegetable exchange), and even Sour Cream (free & fat exchange), and even 6 CHIPS! (1 starch exchange and estimated 1-2 fat exchanges). SO.... that covered what I had left on my exchanges for the day. Didn't end up going to bed until around 2:00-2:30.
(now, I'm on a converence call! :) )
So... adjustments work when they have too! Probably ideally eating at 11:00 may not be the best.... but I'll check with Julianne Downes (the dieticianist) b/c I have a scheduled call with her tomorrow.
Have a great day!
TRIM TIP OF THE DAY:
Focus on Optimal Health! How can you make little changes today to improve your health?? Can you take the stairs? Walk your dog? If you are eating fast-food, can you get fruit instead of french fries? Can you get grilled chicken instead of a double cheese burger? Try adding 1 extra fruit to your day.... get something you like, buy it pre-cut - cantelope, watermelon, pineapple. Bring an apple or banana with you to work. Add some extra veggies to your lunch, dinner or snack - carrots, celery, brocolli - throw some ranch with it if you have too! (low-fat preferably). YOU deserve it. You are investing money into your LIFE , TODAY's HEALTH and FUTURE HEALTH.
