It's nice to be able to write that I have been very honest while trying to eat "correctly". I know what I'm supposed to eat but those bad fats just have so much more flavor. As I've thought about this dilemma I have realized that to help with the problem, I need to add more spices and flavors to my personal cooking. As for tonight's dinner however, I had to rely on prepackaged, so there is no actual recipe.
I realize that buying something already packaged runs the risk of having more fats but I discovered this while looking in the vegetarian part of the frozen foods. Now, I am not a vegetarian by any means, but more and more of the foods on the shelves are tasting better. Anyway, what I discovered are called Eggplant Cutlets. These are lightly breaded eggplant slices that can be baked. I'm sure that extra flavor would come out in the frying but I contented myself with the baking.
After adding a very small amount of spaghetti sauce as a topping, this tasted very good. I actually ate 6 oz or 2 servings as the calorie count is only 100/serving. The Weight Watcher point system showed only 2 points per serving. I'll certainly be trying more of this in the future but it also shows me just how easy it would be for me to get an eggplant and prepare it myself.
You'll hear me complain at times about not being able to find certain foods in our grocery store. If the weather is bad for a few days, the planes can't always fly and the barges might not make it with supplies. Fresh produce is the hardest to get. I just want you to know why I might make these comments.
As for exercise, I completed Day 2 of my 30 Day Challenge on the Wii Active. You could hear me moaning all day. Every time I had to kneel down or get on the floor my thighs complained. Now I realize that not everyone has to get on the floor often during the day, but working with a kindergarten student does tend to encourage different movements.
All I can say right now is "Yeah". I'm on a roll. It might be a very small hill right now, but I'm still climbing.
Adios to Kodiak
