    @donidaily I really appreciate this post. Not all days can be 100% on point. You did what you could do and that's awesome.

    Thank you so much @umbramirror, I figure if this is for life there are going to be plenty of days where we just have to do our best.

    Took the weekend off from the internet (but not from my plan). Onwards!

    Breakfast: a rice cake with peanut butter before pilates, cup of tea, then
    Real Breakfast: chopped salad of lettuce, baby bell peppers, cucumber, dressed with salt and olive oil. Toasted sourdough with avocado.
    Snack: iced cold brew with oat milk.
    Lunch: steamed rice, mapo tofu made with soy chorizo, and a pile of broccoli.
    Snack: another cup of tea, this one with collagen peptides and oat milk.
    Evening: jasmine tea, a few pistachios and a lemon kit kat (from the Japanese supermarket, they always get me with the special flavors!) to get me through a late class.
    After class: a black sesame mochi.
