Day 2

Day 2 was going pretty well up and until my mid-afternoon snack time. Apparently, I need to eat a little more at lunch time, as I was starved by the time I got home from the gym. With exactly 5 minutes to grab something and run back out the door, carrots didn't seem to be enough. I wanted substance and sitting right there at the front of the fridge was my little container of the healthier no-bake cookies I made several days ago. I grabbed and ran, only feeling guilty about it after they were gone. Tomorrow I will plan better. Period.

For the record, I pushed myself extra hard at my spin class a couple of hours ago to try and make up for it. Still, my goal here is to keep as healthy as I can and those, albeit better than a lot of other things I could have grabbed, were not the best nutritional bang for my buck.

Kitchen closed, done for the night.
