Healthy snacking

Alright! Good deal. We are going to keep on track!
My family joined a Karate class that meets twice a week. There will be a few times each month it'll be just myself and my 5 year-old (due to hubbies schedule). This last class was great fun and I am still a little sore just a few days later. Even though I'm sore I still did my 30 mins of walking this morning and I feel great!
Monday I walked 30, Wed 15, Thursday 45 and Sat 30. So this week was pretty successful. I should try and walk everyday (I know!). I figure I'm doing more now than I was before so that's good and as I get better I'll do better!

For 2-3 pm munchies I've found that a handful of nuts (almonds are my fav.) and a glass of water or V8. Sometimes I'll eat some fruit - whole or dried. Maybe even a slice of whole wheat bread with a little butter and an avocado (good fats and proteins help you feel fuller longer... carbs -good ones- help satisfy immediate hunger). Of course I slip every now and then and eat some cookies and other junk... thanks to my hubby for buys 20 boxes of Girl Scout Cookies. Yup 20. Needless to say they've been banished to the freezer. ;)

Here's looking forward to warmer weather soon.
