A new day has come...

A new day has come and I'm 5 lbs lighter than last Sunday so I'm off to a decent start.

I didn't make it to Walmart yesterday as I had planned so all I have in the freezer is ground turkey, chicken breast, sweet peas, and broccoli florets. I also have 20 or so bottles of Slim-Fast in my refrigerator. I know, I know the dreaded slim-fast shake, I find them quite delicious. Anyway, I figured I should get rid of them as soon as possible so I altered my plan a wee bit.

		Serving	Calories	Fat	Fiber

	chicken	5 oz	140	4	0
	sweet peas	2 cups	140	0	8

Well it turns out I didn't have any broccoli so I'm doubling my sweet peas. Oh god, 4 cups of sweet peas, I'm gagging just thinking about it. If you haven't figured it out by now, I'm not really big on vegetables. There's only a handful I'll tolerate--spinach, sweet peas, broccoli, and brussel sprouts. I'm open to any suggestions. Well, below is what I actually ate today.

That's a lot of fiber, double what it recommend for men. I know where I'll be all day tomorrow. LOL.

I walked 2 miles and burned a little over 300 calories. I don't have an exact number because my iPhone died as I was finishing. By the way, I use the following apps,  Walkmeter (to track my exercise) and Net Diary (for my food intake).

Did I forget anything?
