EXERCISE
I exercised at work today. Cardio, Plank twists, pull-ups, push-ups, Ball Crunches

Well Well Well WELL, It has truly been a long time. So let's get to it. Been under oppression lately. Mostly self imposed! Have quite a few things in my life that I don't like. Realized that it is my personal control/management stuff. Made and am making the choice to take a deep breath and let it go, be free. It seems as though life is much more palatable this way.

Today I had my first Green Smoothie. I really liked it. Funny though, this one was more beet colored than green.
Flax Oil
1 1/2 cups frozen strawberries
1 1/2 cups mango
1/2 small banana
1/2 cup black berries
6 leaves of swiss chard with the stems attached
1 scoop protein powder
2 packets sweet fiber
1 cup water
ice

Blended
Drank
YUM!!!!!

Today I had a Sigmoidoscopy and have not eaten for forty hours. It actually was pretty good and I was not hungry at all.

Lunch - two pork chops, garden salad with pear tomatoes and avocado, mayonnaise and fresh chopped garlic.

SF Jello, 1/3 cup of blueberries, 1 banana

I am fasting today for a Sigmoidoscopy and I found out that my dog had been "put down."

I also realized that I am a stress eater more so than I thought. I found that I wanted to comfort the pain by feeding it. That would help somehow numb the feeling of hurt that I felt.

Thankfully, I was fasting for my procedure tomorrow and stayed true to the fast and dealt with the stress by exercising.

It's Father's Day! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Peace to all of you dad's out there, or as my brother says, Happy Pappy's Day!

Took the hubby and father of my three beautiful children to Coconut's in Palo Alto. YUM!

We ordered the Jerk Chicken Wings Appetizer and then to my surprise "the hubster" ordered the same thing I did... The Jerk Burger w/ Provolone and Sweet Potato French Fries.

We were to full for dessert - Thank goodness.

I love love love Coconuts. Good food even though they are a bit slow on the service side of things. They had a great Steel band playing AWESOME music.
