29 September '10

It's Wednesday and back to work for me.  I made a dinner that serves 4 last night and put 3 of them in boxes for left-overs.  I got up this morning and had oatmeal porridge for breakfast (80g Scottish oats, ~1/4 t salt and 1-1/2 c 2% milk).  I sliced an orange and the half of a lime left-over from last night's dinner, packed a packet of cooked shrimp, a pot of yogurt and a box of raspberries and went to work.  I got a salad and a few crackers from the cafeteria for lunch and added my shrimp and fat-free Catalina dressing.  It was great!  I had the Lime-Sauced Chicken for dinner when I got home.  All-in-all, it was a good day.  I only ate what I took in to work (except for the salad, which was part of the plan so that's OK) and I stayed away from the snack table!  That miserable snack table is the bane of my existance!!

I also had a mug of black coffee and about 3 liters of my fruit-flavored water.  That coffee was the only caffeine I had today--it's cold turkey on the Red Bull!  [That may be what I miss the most; in addition to the jolt from all the chemicals, I really do like the taste.  Unfortunately, I'm not a big fan of the diet version.]  Surprisingly, I had no trouble staying awake.  It was probably all the water--and the many trips back and forth to the sand box ;-)

It's off to do my stretches, read a chapter or so in the latest book (a very light historical romance) and to sleep.
