Eating Intuitively

I am walking in the Heart Walk on September 27th.  The last time I participated (in 2006, I think) it was miserable.  I was in pain, and I finished very near to last.  My walking partner even left me behind.

This year I want things to be different.  I want to walk confidently and easily.  That will be possible, because I am healthier now.  I have been losing weight, and I have been exercising.  I am making absolutely sure I amd ready by doing practice walks for the three Saturdays before the actual walk.  I finished the first practice walk today, and it was not bad at all.

I had lunch with my family today at Chili’s restaurant.  I ordered from the “Guiltless Grill” menu, and it was very satisfying.  The best part is that I knew exactly how many calories and fat are in the dish.  We were celebrating a birthday, and I successfully avoided the cake.  I had frosting on my fingers at one point, but I avoided licking them!
