I'm trying a little experiment - practicing what I preach! Last week in my Strong Women - Healthy Hearts class, we discussed meal planning. We even had worksheets to just fill in. So, I decided to give it a try - plan all of my meals and make them healthy. I'm trying to get all of my recommended foods. So I went to the store last night to stock up - I really did spend more time on the outer edges (produce department mostly).
This morning, I just had my standard cereal. I woke up late (I set the alarm but forgot to turn in on!) and didn't put any fruit with it. For lunch, I had a "make ahead lunch wrap" (got the recipe from Laura/allrecipes.com), 1/2 cup cottage cheese, and about a cup of grapes. And a big glass of water. During the afternoon, I had a handful of animal crackers. For dinner, I had a veggie burger on a whole wheat english muffin, corn on the cob, and salad.
I had a good week-end in Ashdown. Mom & I went to Texarkana Friday night - we picked up Aunt Chris and ate at Lee's Catfish. Saturday, we went shopping and found Mom several things. I got some warm socks. We picked up hamburgers for dinner. On Sunday, Bob Simmons met me at the door and asked me to run the powerpoint during the service. I did, and it went well. And I got to visit with some people at the church in Ashdown - which is always a good thing!

When six year old Kaylee looked back and saw Katie, she said, "Mom, there's a woman in the Sound Room!"
We don't have to worry about Power Point where we are! ;-)
I need to do what you're doing. Actually, my meals are pretty decent - it's what I eat between that's bad. At least that bag of little candy bars is out of Butterfingers now. It's almost out of Crunch. The other bars don't tempt me.
