Small Beginnings

I got up early and did around a half hour of yoga. Later, during my morning break from work, I took a short walk.

Tonight I've every intention of getting in a bit of weight training.

I did quite a bit of grocery shopping at a local place yesterday; I didn't travel too far because it had snowed the night before and the roads were a bit dicey (and in some places icy). I got a lot of fresh meat and produce, and for some reason was inspired to get tons of different varieties of canned beans. We already had tons of beans in our 'panic pantry', and we've got tons of dried beans. But I'm dreaming of bean salads and marinated bean dishes in the near future, so I'm sure they'll all get used at some point.

Breakfast was 1 pork sausage patty, 3 scrambled eggs, and half a granny smith apple. I seriously considered avocado toast, but I'm saying no to bread. I even passed up getting a bag of the nice whole grain stuff just to help maintain my discipline while avoiding temptation.

Lunch was a romaine salad with cucumber, tomato, onion, black olives, shredded carrot, boiled egg, bacon pieces, blue cheese crumbles, a can of tuna, and a creamy dressing with whole grain mustard, smashed garlic, and some smoked paprika. I was feeling chefy - it worked out.

I'm having dinner as I type this - cast iron seared NY Strip, pan-roasted baby portobello mushrooms, and some sautéed broccoli with a squeeze of lemon.

Today was easier... So far. We'll see how things go later.
