So, today was my cheat day and it went well. I brought a healthy snack to work to get me through until I could take myself to lunch after work. It started snowing really hard while I was getting lunch. It was beautiful. I gave away 1/3 of my fries to a group of teenagers nearby. I left almost half of the tortilla on my chicken ranch wrap AND I had them go light on the sauce.

I know, not really taking full advantage of my cheat day. And to make matters worse (lol), I resisted getting an apple pie and instead went to the grocery store and bought apples and strawberries. There is something so homey and comforting about the smell of homemade apple sauce! I made a small batch of apple compote/apple pie filling.

So, after a super-healthy cruciferous collection salad and strawberries, I am now settling down to a much healthier dessert (compared to commercially prepared pie) of my homemade filling with four Nilla wafers.

I also made my appt. for a physical today. I am more excited about it than I can remember ever being because I have until June 5th to keep up these good health habits and get my cholesterol and blood glucose down naturally. See what I did there? I didn't even say, "TO LOSE WEIGHT!!" Yes, I know I'll be happy to have a lower number on the scale to show my doctor, but that is not my sole focus.

Have a good night, everyone. I hope the snow doesn't pose any crazy problems with the commute tomorrow. Wish me luck.
