Another day

Cant help but be a little disappointed today. Had been planning on getting together for supper with some co-workers today to celebrate the Sept birthdays but unfortunately it's been cancelled as so many couldn't make it. Darn! I had worked out my calories for the day in preparation for it. I've been on holidays for this past week and a half so had looked forward to seeing everyone again...outside of work. I'm back to work on Monday. Oh well, another time will be planned. I'm just hoping I'll be off for it. Kind of difficult to plan things when we all work shift work. We always miss some people.

So today I switched from my usual breakfast of a Activia yogurt, bran buds and blue berries to Oatmeal porridge with 1/2 cup of frozen blue berries. I do agree with the majority of "losers" that breakfast sets you up for the day of good calorie choices. I do add some selenium to my porridge for the added fiber. Kind of miss the bran buds though. I wonder what it would be like to add the bran buds to the porridge instead....it adds a extra 80 calories though for a 1/3 cup....will have to think about that. The crunch with the cooked porridge might be kind of nice though. When I'm working dayshift I get up between 4 and 5 am. I start work at 7 but I don't like to move quickly in the morning and so I do get up early. My first coffee break is usually around 9 am so I do eat prior to going to work and I find that my breakfast does hold me well. Normally I don't eat at Coffee time. Just have that second cup of coffee. I limit myself to only two cups a day as I use to drink way too much coffee and went through several caffiene withdrawals so would prefer to not have to do that again. So it's 2 cups a day for me period!

Well I'm off to get my daily encouragement from reading Sean Anderson's blog. I'm still in 2009 of his blog. No I'm not skipping ahead to see where he is at now. I just wish I had started at the same time back in 2008! Oh well. I'm also trying out a few other blogs that I've seen on his site. It's always nice to hear how others are doing.
