Rapidish Startish Day Two

Well, we did fairly well with our plan yesterday.  We both followed the program except that we both ate a small piece of banana bread last night.  And I never did eat my snack that was to be a pear.  (Does banana bread count as a fruit?)

This is the problem I have with new eating plans.  I hate to throw out perfectly good food that I already have.  Especially when that food is already prepared.  And I'd made this yummy banana bread a few days before.

Plus, we were hungry.  So, we agreed to each have a small piece.  I figure, all in all, it was a vast improvement over what we would have normally eaten in a day.  (For one thing, R would have had a HUGE piece of the banana bread in the evening.)  We each ate fruits, vegetables, high fiber cereal, low fat yogurt, and lean protein.  I drank hot tea (black) most of the day instead of my usual two to three diet sodas.

Plus, we went for a bike ride after supper.  Then we worked painting our garage.

I'm calling it a success.

Tonight we're eating a bowl of soup, even though that's not technically on the plan for today.  But, I'd made the soup Sunday, and it needs to be eaten.  And it's healthy anyway.  I made it with ground turkey this time, and the rest is all beans, vegetables, and spices.  We'll just skip the cheese and crackers we would normally eat with it.
