Day Three and I'm not dead yet!

              Today was a day I wanted to stay in bed. Well I'm glad to say I didn't. I got up and had a healthy Egg Beater Omelet with spinach, green onion, and bell pepper along with grapes. It was just what I needed in my body to get up and hit the streets. I then loaded Griswald into his stroller and we went for a long walk/fast stroll. When we got home he was exhausted and went straight to bed. I of course jumped on my exercise bike and did what I have decided to call my" Rita Circuit". After the bike i got out my exercise mat and did my core exercises. Just looked at my pedometer and I have 8,000 steps and I'm feeling good. I got up out of my chair and walked during halftime of the Sacramento Kings basketball game and I never missed a thing. I maybe looked a little crazy but at this age who cares.

                I hope all of you were out there soaking in some of the great sunshine, breathing some of the fresh spring air , and just enjoying the day. It was a great one.

                I am always looking for healthy food sites and I found one today that might interest some of you. My girlfriend is trying to not eat  meat so off I went to find recipes and hints on how to accomplish that and still be satisfied. I found  Meatout.org   I read that on March 20 that it is Meatout Day. I plan on not eating any meat products on March 20th in honor of Meatout Day. Hopefully some of you will join me.  I will be posting meatless recipes and if any of you have some please share them. I eat a lot of Morningstar Farms meatless products. I love their mock fried chicken patties, crumbles, and veggie patties. They all make great sandwich fillings. By the time I add whatever seasonings I want I can't tell the difference from real meat.

          Well I will close this out for now. Will be back tomorrow to share my 4th day of the Activity Challenge. I know I have to make working out a priority in my life just as much as eating right. I guess it's kind of like having a peanut butter and jelly sandwich without the peanut butter. It just doesn't work.
