Day 26 - Consistency

Checkup yesterday - told to watch the concentrated carbs as they turn into sugar. I'm still eating too many carbs.  I've added Net Carbs to my program Weight-by-Date and will begin counting carbs tomorrow.  Once I develop the habit it will be easier to see where I've gone too far, what I can avoid, and what I can reduce.  One of my bad choices was a whole bananna - 30.4 carbs - half the days suggested total.  I also noted I feel better when the majority of fruit is apples and berries and cherries, and only 1/2 a fruit for other types.

Consistency seems to be the most difficult aspect of the day-to-day reporting.  I was going to start a study on who I am in Christ, but think it would be better if I combined it with names of God and who I am because of that characteristic.  Will start working on that tomorrow.  Phillipians 1:27 says we should: "Only conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or remain absent, I will hear of you that you are standing firm in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;"  Only... that doesn't leave much room for an emotionally-driven life does it?  


I did make the goal of 1 hour of exercise today and it went faster than expected - did some balance work on the bosu, rowing, weights on ankles and hand weights, and treadmill.

Breakfast:  Yogurt, Blueberries, small bannana, sprinkle of granola

Lunch:  Rotisserie chicken and sugar snap peas from yesterday, 1/2 cup peach clafouti (peaches topped with sour cream, eggs, stevia, raw sugar)

Dinner:  Deli chicken rolls and Xochitl tortilla chips


Chocolate: Roxanne offered me a Hershey Kiss before dinner and I ate it. Have to admit it didn't taste as good as they used to.  Then when I got home Ken showed me a chocolate-toffee thing (not sure if it is/was a cookie or candy) but the first bite was so sickeningly sweet I threw the rest away.  Get that... never thought I'd find a chocolate I didn't like - or that I could throw away chocolate whether I liked it or not.  Sorry no pic of the chocolate :)
