No idea on eating...I don't much plan in advance, especially when my kids are home. I do know I'll probably be having a salad for lunch. We're going to one of the girls' favorite restaurants and I can't eat pancakes or waffles, nor do I want to waste the calories on one of their egg dishes.
Exercise was a 2.5 mile walk with my girlfriends this AM. We took last week off (spring break for the kiddos) and I'd forgotten how good it feels to have my workout (or most of it, at least, as I sometimes do strength training later in the day) out of the way by 7AM! Worth dragging my butt out of bed at 6, even if it didn't feel like it at the time.
B:banana, leftover hawaiian rolls w/ peanut butter
S1: roasted edamame, orange
L: vegan orange beef w/ brown rice
S2: apple, a protein if really hungry
Ex: dog walk - at least 45 mins
