No yoga today. I did some stomach exercises and then went to my RCIA class.

Eating well has much to do with how much time a person has. I find when I am not in a rush, I have an easier time watching my intake. Rather than eating frozen waffles or grabbing a granola bar and running out the door, when I have time, I can make a bowl of oatmeal and some fresh fruit, or an egg. I can plan ahead to have a healthy salad for lunch and eat a reasonable dinner. Unfortunately, sometimes our go go go life styles in America do not allow us, or at least do not contribute to healthy eating habits.

Going to bed early enough to allow myself to get up 15 - 30 minutes earlier is helpful. Also having a fridge stocked with fruits and veggies, or cooking ahead for a few days makes it easier to plan what I eat, rather than eating on the run. It is time for me to go to the store and to get some sleep.
