Today I made fat bombs. I got the recipe from one of my Kindle books, called "Fat Bomb Recipes" by Sara Givens. Today's fat bomb consists of little morsels of coconut butter, unsweetened coconut, cream cheese, with a chocolate cream cheese glaze, topped with walnuts. The idea is to keep your body in a state of ketosis, which is burning stored fat. These little bites keep you feeling satisfied and less prone to binging on simple carbs. I am packing a couple with my lunch.
I am finding I need to make more time for exercise. I went to bed early last night with my book, but stayed up late, having a hard time putting it down. Hence, I kept hitting the snooze this morning.
I had a nice breakfast - a leftover mushroom/spinach frittata, turkey bacon and tea.
Then I made my fat bombs and stir fried some cabbage and onions. My lunch today is sweet potatoes, spinach, shredded chicken, carrots, red peppers, cabbage and a fat bomb. Yum! :) I actually prefer my lunches to almost anything I can buy in a restaurant. The feeling of self sufficiency, accomplishment, and discipline far outweigh the instant gratification and gluttonous joy of restaurant eating.
So I am wearing my sneakers today and will get my walking in on my piano student route. Today I am all over the place. First North Portland, then the Hawthorne neighborhood, and then Woodstock area and home.
The kids all went hunting for the week. So it will be just Honey Dog and I. I'm ok with that. I like the quiet, but of course I will be praying like Mother Theresa that my kids all make it home safely! :)
Here are today's stats and then I must run out the door! (Good thing I'm wearing my running shoes!)
It looks like I stayed the same from last week. Really need to up the exercise!
Happy Monday! :)
