weight: 118 lbs.
breakfast 1/3 c. oatmeal with fresh blueberries, one tsp. wheat germ, 1 tsp. honey, 4 oz oj, coffee with 1 splenda and 1 tbsp non-dairy creamer
lunch: frozen burrito with salsa, handful of grape tomatoes
afternoon: two cookies
dinner: plate of chopped lettuce, cabbage, with grape tomatoes, 2 tbsp. blue cheese crumbles, dried cranberries, approx. 10 almonds, wheat sprouts, chopped parsley and cilantro, 1-2 tbsp. light caesar dressing.

Minus the cookies, this was a pretty healthy day of eating. There seems to always be unhealthy food around at school, but especially during the holidays. I think the best advice is to plan out what one will eat and have an alternative to the junk food. I had some blueberries with me, but once I ate one cookie, I had to have another. Eating the blueberries probably would've saved me from the cookies.

Exercise: Not much today - running errands to the post office and Target. My ankle is sore after being on it all day and I am now on the couch, probably for the remainder of the evening. I am still taking some type of steriod for my ankle to help reduce the inflamation. I have another day or two until my doses are finished. Unfortunately, a side effect of the steriods is not sleeping well. I feel tired, but am not able to fall and stay asleep very well. Exercising also helps me to sleep better, of course, but I have not been getting much exercise lately. Before my ankle/tendon issues, I was getting in a groove of running and yoga two to three times per week. I look forward to being able to get back on a regular schedule.
