(Tuesday, May 21)
Today was a good day. I walked a little over 2 miles.

Food Today:
Breakfast - I ate steel cut oatmeal with naturally sweetened black cherries. I had already added a light sprinkle of cinnamon and a teaspoon of cold milled golden flax seed to the oatmeal.
One cup of black coffee.

Morning Snack - Banana, one glass of chilled unsweetened peach flavored green tea.

Lunch - one bowl of home made chicken tortilla soup (used chobani plain yogurt in place of sour cream) I did not add cheese to my soup. I did cheat a little by adding whole grain tortilla chips.

Dessert - 2 little squares of Ghiradelli dark chocolate 72%

Dinner - grilled salmon, fresh steamed veggies, and  a baked sweet potato with a little honey butter.
This was our anniversary dinner at Outback Steak House. I really wanted steak but I chose wisely and ate salmon. The salmon was very tasty too!

Snack - one mango and a miniature peach.

Not sure how this next week is going to work out with my eating plan. Trusting I can still eat healthy. I will be in Memphis with my dear friend who's daughter is critically ill. Hospital food isn't always the healthiest. I've packed some almonds, a couple of apples, and some protein bars. Hopefully I can get to a grocery store fairly quickly and pick up some good healthy food. No matter what I will do what I have to do. Being with my friend during this time takes precedence over food concerns for sure. I know God will help me and give me wisdom.
