They will eat what you give them...

Good Morning to all my Bloggin Buddies,

Boy, yesterday was not that great of a day for me. It was just 1 disappointing stupid thing after another. That happens sometimes, but its all how we handle it that matters - right?

I don't over eat now when I feel bad or am stressed. I have learned that, while food tastes good, it does not make us feel better. It is just to help us live healthier if we do it right.

Remember the friend, the one that used to be my neighbor and had all those parties?? And remember I said she had a 4th boy - yeah - 4th a year ago. I see her post pictures all the time on Facebook, and he is so cute!! But the pictures all have him with cake, cookie, donuts, and tons of CRAP!! And his cheeks are getting real chubby.

It just concerns me that (now that I know) how some parents are just making their kids so fat with so much junk and SUGAR. There is so many other options - like fruit, or homemade stuff with no preservatives and much less sugar. And whats wrong with vegetables? Your kids are gonna eat what you give them right? That's how they learn. Well - OK - that's my Blurt about that.

Yesterday I ate:
breakfast;

Oasis bread w/1gm of sugar peanut butter and berries, 2 eggs (from  my microwave thingy) turkey bacon.

lunch;

tuna, mayo, mushrooms & zucchini (sauted first), feta cheese, cellery, bacon bits, baby spinach and a hanful of  croutons.

snack;

It looks like this when you get it out of the mug.

 A Flaxseed Minute Muffin; Who posted this?? Was it Jeri?? You make it like the pancakes, but w/1 egg, 3 tb of Flaxseed, 1/2t baking powder and what ever you want cinnamon, truvia, vanilla, cocoa - whatever and microwave in a mug coated with pam first for 1 min.

I cut it in half and put cream cheese.

Then I made some more Sinful Cinnamon Cakes. I must say they were way better the 2nd time around. Almond flour is kind of tricky. I does not really change color that much as it cooks - only a bit - so you have to make sure not to over cook it. This time I added 3 truvia to the cake and some crushed walnuts on top and 1 truvia to the glaze topping. MUCH BETTER!!

For a great pick-me-up try putting some lemon and mint in your water.

Went for a nice over 2 mile walk with the poochies.

dinner;

I sauted some small chicken breast pieces in EVOO and some Italian seasoning, 6 brussel sprouts and some broccoli. And after I ate one of those cinnamon cakes and some candy cane lane tea.

Oh - BTW that email I got yesterday from Jorge's office, I found out they did the same thing to 5 of us. Not Cool..

Well with the power of Positive Thinking, and a smile on my face - no matter what happens, I am hoping that today will be a better day. We all have to live with the choices we make.
