Are you one of those people whose only daily math consists of estimated calorie counting to stay slim?
My “Beautiful Mind” sees arithmetic like this:
If I eat breakfast like this….
Some of this during the day…
…and a bowl of this..
Get in some kind of activity like this…
Then I can have one of these….
…and be skinny!
Well, this winter we did a lot more of this:
…and this…
and these…
So, after Chris’ annual physical about a month ago, he was told to see a specialist. Well, the specialist told him that he was fat. Phew, we thought it was something serious. I should have gotten the hint when my mom sent me home with burdock root prepared 3 different ways with, “This is good for losing weight. Give it to Chris.” Now we’re back on track with the food and exercise. It had been a stressful couple of months with a lot going on in our lives and getting through a Seattle winter of darkness and hibernation. We’re back!
How do you stay healthy? What kind of food math or justifications do you have?

Haha! I usually have a banana for breakfast then I work out. Then the rest of the day is just a struggle to control my appetite, specially when there are sweets around!

Sweets are my downfall! 🙂 Wow, I would pass out if I only ate a banana now that I’m pregnant. I’ve turned into an eating machine! I do feel good though! Your discipline is amazing!
Jennica says
Pregnancy is the best excuse to eat! You look fabulous! 🙂 I usually have my sweet treats after lunch. Hehehe.
