~Day One, Again~

I'm sitting here drinking an incredibly yummy smoothie, wow, my taste-buds are doing such a happy dance right now! I foolishly waited almost 4 hours after getting up to have it ready...(had to stick in the freezer for awhile, no frozen blueberries right now! & with so many greens in it, i NEED it to be cold!!!)

I'm going to start using fitday again, too...starting now...so, here goes...

Smoothie:
3 small banana's
2 cups parsley
half a head of lettuce
2 apples
1 lemon
less than 1 cup of almond milk
15 grams of flax seeds

667 calories, 11 grams of fat. (So far, though it's likely not quite that many calories, there were actually 4 bananas, but Hannah had a big (tall!) mug of smoothie, too! I'll add whatever else i eat at the end of the day!)

I'm back to realizing the value in planning my meals somewhat...it greatly reduces me thinking about food...i have a big salad planned for dinner, & before that, a grapefruit or 2, (Yum! Sweet, pink, organic!) & maybe some herbal tea.

I feel sooooo much stronger & committed than i have in ages...Shannon & Valerie are both greatly inspiring me, & reading some other blogs & sites are really helping me get & STAY focussed on why I'm doing this, & how worth it i know it will be, to get to the other side of this mountain...

Valerie's total honesty on her Blog has inspired me to get my FULL-BODY before pics posted, as well as put a weight ticker at the top of my page...as soon as i have time! Off to go do something for exercise!
{Later}
Ok, so much for the best-laid plans! We had veggies & dip, & i had some sunflower seeds, no salad, no tea, no grapefruits...those'll be for tomorrow, i guess!
My totals for the day came to 1279 calories, & WAAAAAY too much fat, (too many sunflower seeds, won't do that again!)
