    I decided to not batch cook all my meals in advance. I see what the nutritionist has to say this week. I've
    been to the gym & done spin & circuits
    If I was cooking solo, I might be tempted to not bother batch cooking but since I'm feeding two others, batching is the way to go for me... although I'm still working on my variety.

    im please it works for you UncleMac. What kind of things do you prepare?

    Nutritionist tells me I need to up my calories from 1650 to 2000 on my exercise days? I cant get my head round that just yet. I also need to drink 3 lts water a day.

    Chicken has a different taste if it's not fresh or if it has been frozen. I don't think too much else loses flavor over a day or so.
    Soup is actually better day-old.

    My ankle injury has progressed from pain management to strengthening. I have been encouraged to walk more and even to climb more stairs!

    So, I came in early to go to the bank and I'll go to the library after work. Leaving my lunch break to hit a large department store near my office, lots of stairs and walking !!!!

    Since I tend to go over calories on weekends, I'm going to bump my limit up to maintenance for today and tomorrow. Goal is to eat at or below maintenance today.

    I've heard that too. I'm not sure how it's supposed to work. Best guess is I've heard most folks are chronically dehydrated and the "thirsty" signal in the brain is pretty much identical to the "hungry" signal. Fix the dehydration and less likelihood to overeat due to crossed signals?

    I'm hoping to get a ton of office work done today. It would also be nice to get past the runny nose and cough today!!! I'm so over it! :|

    Stuck at home today...started down the hill into work and had several trees down. Roads were worse than nasty. Snow, sleet, ice....you name it. They finally closed everything...including the colleges, which hardly ever happens. And power is in and out. So...here I am with 3 very happy dogs and a pigsty of a house. Guess I will start some deep spring cleaning. As long as I don't look out the window, I can dream, right?

    The Powers that BE at my office sent everyone home shortly after noon due to inclemental weather… I got home safely and spent a couple of hours with snowblower and shovel. From what I've read, we got 46 cm or just over 18 inches of snow since this morning. I'm finally starting to warm up…
