Day Fifty-three

Oh Sunday what a day you are?  I did my usual Sunday chores and have figured out that I need to clean the condo on Sundays.  It makes sense as the rest of my week is taken up with working, working out and doing this blog.  Ok there is some time in there for other stuff but in reality not much.  With that being said, I have noticed the last few Sundays that I'm sitting in front of the computer watching "TV".  Not exactly what I envisioned doing when I originally made the decision to get Internet not cable TV.  So today I did grocery shopping ( I do that every Sunday) and then did some cleaning (needed doing) and then did laundry.  I also prepared stuff for work lunch and dinner for the week.  I even went for a walk in the latter part of the day (gotta say I luv Daylight Savings).  Otherwise this was the menu for the day:

Breakfast: Oatmeal with cottage cheese and 20oz of cold water.

Lunch:  I made a big ass sandwich on a fancy loaf of bread.  It contained the following ingredients, turkey bacon, sliced deli turkey, avocado, mache (type of greens), tomato, swiss cheese and lite havarti cheese.  It also had hummus and mustard along with a Red Pepper spread w/eggplant and garlic as condiments.  Also some sweet potato fries from Trader Joe's baked in the oven and a handful of carrots.  The sandwich was big enough that I cut it into three sections with the full intention of eating the entire thing.  As it turned out I was satisfied after eating two/thirds and put the other third in the refrigerator for later.  I also had a cup of Market Spice tea.

I then started cooking stuff for my lunches and snacks for the week.  By the time I finished with that I felt I needed to go for a walk.  I have developed a pattern on the weekends of going for a walk or a bike ride on Sunday and it was interesting in that I felt out of sorts before I went for the walk.  Hmmm, L has talked about doing something a number of times and it creates a habit....I guess I've tricked myself into getting exercise even when I don't think I need it.  Heh.

Dinner: I finished off the big ass sandwich and that was pretty much it.

As I write this I'm snacking a bit.  I just had 5-6 baby carrots dipped in hummus and a few slices of baked yam and beet.  Have I said how yummy these are?  Well there you go.  I'm thinking I will also have a 100 calories bag of popcorn before I end up going to bed after 10pm.
