That’s my mantra for today. It’s the weekend; I thought I’d kick it up a notch.

Today has been a good day. I enjoyed some chicken-apple sausage (SuperTarget btw, 70 calories per link and delicious) and a banana for breakfast. Then I was going to meet my best girlfriend for lunch but her eldest son, my 5-year old godson, came down with a major fever and she had to stay home from work. I told her I’d come over and I’d bring lunch. And then I read the ‘fast food’ blog from Jo I believe and I decided I will cook lunch and I will bring it over. So I set about to broiling some chicken this morning. Then when that was done, I sprayed Olive Oil Pam on 2 slices of ezekiel bread (which I can eat) and put them on the same pan and broiled them for a bit. While that was happening I chopped up some goat cheddar and goat mozzarella. I made croutons out of the ezekiel bread and put them in the same container with the cheese. I packed up the chicken as well - still warm - and headed out. I stopped at Trader Joe’s along the way and got some spinach and some broccoli florets, as well as some lemon sorbet for dessert. When I got there I blanched the broccoli and assembled the salads. It was FANTASTIC! I don’t know the calories but I know it was totally in my plan - no gluten, no casein, no corn syrup (the sorbet was a natural one I get at TJs).

I have not gone for my walk yet, but I am about to. I have a meeting tonight at 7 and then am meeting up with a friend at 9 for some good old fashioned fun.

Have a good evening everyone, and thank you so much to all of you who have completed my survey. I have gotten a lot of responses and am feeling really supported in every way I can think of right now.

Hugs, Ellen
