A chilly hello botters:

It is downright cold here.  We are at our high of 19 degrees and temperatures will be falling all day long.  My sweet boss came in early to light my propane heater and it feels wonderful.  Our low tonight is going to be in the single digits with wind chills at about 5 below.  I need to be a bear and go sleep off winter.  My eats for today are:

Breakfast:  Hot Coffee & Miralax

Snack:  Quest Protein Bar

Lunch:  Protein Shake

Snack:  Fiber One Cake

Dinner:  Lean Pocket

Snack:  Vitatop

Exercise:  Bike

I really feel great since I got the carbs out of my system.  No head hunger or body hunger.  I do not know why I ever let them back in when I only feel good eating them and back the rest of the time.  It is a vicious cycle we find ourselves in.  Please remember to take your vitamins and drink lots of fluids.  This cold weather will surely take you down physically if you are not prepared for it.  Have a great day.

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. 2 hour delay for work today due to icy roads. The snow is still covering everything. Very little melted yesterday - of course with temps in the 20's it really can't melt. My Grandmother would stay it's hanging around waiting for more. Of course the weatherman mentioned a chance of snow again tonight.

It's so good to see so many new faces posting on here. We've all got a lot to learn and contribute. Keep sharing.

My plan for today:

commute:  Coffee

Breakfast:  Greek Yogurt w/ granola

Lunch:  Mason Jar salad with Mexican Chicken for added protein

snack:  Popcorn 

Dinner:  15 Bean Chili

I'm getting ready to pop the vitamins for the morning so I've just got to remember my Iron tonight. Not sure what the exercise will be today, possible DVD of some sort. This is Day #6 of clean eating and I must admit to feeling much better. Yall stay warm and safe.

Hubby and I are hitting the gym tonight, as much as I am dreading it I know I have to start.

Vitamins are in, and gave myself a b-12 shot this morning, good for another month! Trying to find the best time to start my 5 day pouch test.  Possibly Monday.  Until then I will be making better food choices.
