Food for Monday 10-28-2013

Today was a weird day.  I woke up at an unlike me time of 530 am, just starving, so I fixed a bowl of oatmeal to charge me up for the day with my nephew.  Oatmeal, maple syrup and half a banana with a cup apple juice, seemed like a great way to start my day, low in calories and helps clean up my cholesterol.  My breakfast was 306 calories. 

I logged on to MTGO because my nephew was asleep, and decided that I would stream it.  I played mono black, and in round three I had my snack, a Minute Maid Juice Bar with  60 calories 0 fat.  Christian was up he did not want breakfast but wanted lunch at noon which is good because I was ready for lunch. 

I had the rest of my black bean burgers, to clean out some left overs.  I ran back the black bean burger.  Again with a tortilla, this time I went with hummus in place of the salsa, and it was 210 calories and 3 grams of fat. The oil in the hummus added a gram. 

Christian and I went on a walk at 1, which was kinda of him because he was playing his video game, but it was a short lived walk, maybe I ate to much, maybe I was anxious about the job possibility I got called about while walking, but we quickly made it home after 12 minutes. 

About 18 minutes short, but I need an exercise plan, when to do it, where to do it, what to do.  So for three days a week I am going to follow the couch to 5k plan  there was an ab challenge that a friend posted that I am going to do and the push up challenge that I am going to do.  I figure I have so much free time, that I have the time to do the ab and pushups around the house whenever I am not cleaning or cooking. 

I had another snack after christian left.  strawberry ice (Luigi's italian ice is vegan btw.) 100 calories, 0 fat.

Then I cooked dinner, a nice black bean soup, comparable to Panera breads in taste but not in sodium or calories.  It was by far, the best soup I've made so far, and I'm glad to have it as part of my lunch and dinners for the next week (I still have tons of the navy bean soup as well)  Calories for this were 74 with 3 grams of fat. 

Feeling tired, I took a nap, intending it to be for an hour or so, but that backfired, but thankfully I still have time in the day to do my homework, answer my work emails, follow up on conversations with my friends and my exercise for the day. 

So total calories for today are 750, fat for today is 6.5.  So far my chest hurts less and my liver hurts less.  I also had 6 cups of water which is a huge number for me, and close to what I drank in sugary drinks per day.

I have my weigh in post to make and my blood work will go with it, so I'll be back in about 40 to get that done!
