If I Ever Tell You That I Love to Learn...

If I ever tell you that I love to learn...be aware it is a half true statement (half BS). In fact, I love when I learn something. The gruelling pain of learning, and screwing up, and trying, and failing, and trying again, and getting right by pure luck... that is something that I don't enjoy. In fact it is frustrating, but I know by experience that eventually I will get over that phase, and I will learn, then I will find other things I cannot do....and then the process will start over again. Today I had my first skating lesson. It was not pretty. It was painful. It was frustrating, but I cannot bear with the idea of giving up. It is not in my DNA. It is not who I am. Yes, I am stubborn. Yes, I am, and I will not let it go until I master the ice. I love the ice.

My day was long. I was up at 4AM. I could not sleep. The eating part was challenging. I badly ate today. Unfortunately, I did not have time. I had this weird feeling tonight as if I was dizzy or mentally challenged. My brain is not processing a lot of information. It is slow and I am not used to it. I am glad I can function at work and I feel quite energetic when I am in there. Maybe because I have problems to solve, things to move forward. I don't know if I should blame the 4 cups of coffee I had today or something else. All that I know is that I felt great during the whole day, even though I was hungry.

My breakfast was pretty good. I had papaya, a small salad with baby mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, and ranch dressing. I had scramble eggs(a.k.a. I could not make a pretty omelet) with yellow peppers and a laughing cow triangle. I also had coffee with milk and a brazil nut.





I had a few snacks including a low fat danActive, blackberries, and trail mix. Just for the record, the low fat danActive taste just like the original, plus water.

My lunch was a tiny portion of yucca and chicken tights (Polish style). Very good but I wish I could have more. That's were I started drinking coffee. Maybe to give me the impression that I was eating something...The whole fantasy thing did not work out at all. Anyway, just another day that I have survived, just another day.








I had the beef with mushroom leftovers from last week for dinner garnished with plain fat free yogurt.

As I track all that I eat with the "Calorie Count" app, day after day I see that my intake of fibre is too low. I wonder why as I thought that I was eating foods rich in fibre but apparently not so much. The link below may help you if you think you are not eating enough fibre. My big surprises were raspberry and navy beens. Got to stock them up!
