Its 8:30 am and the peanut butter is safe and sound inside its plastic jar snug up in the cabinet. I have no clue what that urge was about last night but I am happy that it has passed. like I stated in the previous post, that is only the second time in more than 3 months that I have had urges like that and it was more hunger pains than an urge but man I don't like it. as I type this I am eating, you guessed it, a banana with peanut butter on it and my morning green tea. I was attempting to not drink the green tea yesterday (wify made a suggestion) BUT I am a firm believer in the teas appetite suppression qualities now. I have read that it can suppress appetite and I was admittedly skeptic about it, not any more. I 100% believe that the tea has been helping me by not only boosting my metabolism but by helping with the urges. To go from about a gallon per day to none may have played a role in my little peanut butter attack last evening.
Green tea fields of Daehan Tea Plantation Posung county, South Cholla Province Korea So..now that I have got that figured out, we can move onto the rest of the days activities, which weren't much I am afraid. just an average day on the ranch. I did go over calories by just a bit but I am not worried about it as my scale is still headed down so I am happy about that. also it is suppose to reach 60 degrees this week so I am hoping that I can get out to the park sometime and maybe get a walk in at the bird sanctuary, I will most certainly post some pictures when I do get over there, its a beautiful park. speaking of parks, I have also set a goal for myself for this coming fall, there is a park in CT called Sleeping Giant, when I was a kid we went there a lot to hike to the top of the "mountain" if you want to call it a mountain. it is a beautiful place but I have not been there in I would have to say at least 15 years. there are all sorts of trails and its a very nice place to hike, so I thought it would be a good idea to hike to the top as a goal. I do not believe that I could make it without a lot of trouble right now as I am, so I wish to get into a physical shape that I can bring my kids up there as my father brought me. so that is now an "official" goal of mine.
Here is a photo of Sleeping Giant and its obvious where it got the name.Here is the menu from Monday.
