Holly, Tuesday April 4th

I managed to set aside my depression and stick to my diet yesterday. I really prayed many times throughout the day for strength and help -- I needed it and I got it!

Breakfast: Musli w/ Rice Milk
Lunch: Carrots and a Slim Fast meal bar (220 calories)
Snack: A pear
Dinner: Veggie Soup, a little rice, salad and a soy patty.

I walked with Ronde', then walked with the boys and dogs in the afternoon. I also did a small excercize workout. By the time the boys went to bed, all I could think about was getting a little snack from the kitchen. Just as Alexander went upstairs the phone rang and it was my friend from the States. She yacked until 10:30 pm and then it was too late for me to eat! (Actually, I could have still eaten but would have been too embarrased in front of Robert). So, that was the answer to my prayers.

Also, I'm realizing that I am consuming far too many calories for breakfast. I haven't figured it out yet because I make the musli myself, but I'm pretty sure my portion is way, way to big - in fact, I know it. But, it also keeps me satisfied till lunchtime. I really need to cut back though and that is going to be my next task. boo hoo, I really love my musli!
