Keeping it balanced/Keeping it Healthy

Week 1, Day 2

So here is today’s [successful] attempt to healthy eating:

Breakfast:
-2 boiled eggs with a little salt—eaten in my car while on my way to work (running late)—Protein is a big ++
-1/2 cinnamon raisin bagel w/ 1/3 reduced fat cream cheese. Why? My body feels satisfied and balanced when I have something sweet @ breakfast. I make sure to keep it in moderation and make sure that I don’t “abuse” (Ie: since I had two eggs, I balanced it out with ½ a bagel NOT a whole one!).
-Cup of Yoshi green tea (also consumed while driving to work—relaxes me & gets me ready for the day)
-Mid morning @ around 10:30 PM [w/ the ½ bagel mentioned above] I had 1 small cup of coffee with skim milk:

**Coffee gives me energy/spikes my metabolism and I can keep it to a cup a day (or less) which is good.

Lunch:
-Turkey & cheese sandwich on 2 slices of 100% whole wheat bread
-100 calorie cheetos snack (for that “crunchy” satisfaction, in moderation)

Snack:
-1 cup of 80 calorie light yogurt

Dinner:
-1 chicken wrap (w/ 100 calorie tortilla, lettuce, grilled chicken, a little bit of part-skim shredded cheese)
-Side Garden salad w/ homemade dressing (teaspoon olive oil/tablespoon vinegar/lil salt)
-1/2 cup of beans

Water:
-3 Small Poland spring bottles

**(Something I noticed: my consumption of water is usually correlated to the size of my water bottle. Note to self: carry a larger water bottle around for more water consumption).

God bless this day.

Cheers for Motivation!

Kisses,
-Belle
