Week 1, Day 4: Opportunity Cost of eating fresh food

Today I felt like I had no time to do anything!

While Omar and I were making dinner, (He was preparing lentils and I the fresh veggies), I took a step back and looked at how long I had been washing skinning and dicing the different fruits and vegetables. Had I just thrown some frozen veg into the steamer, I would have had an extra 30 minutes+ to study.

This is the food for the day:

8:45 am: 1 1/2 Special K Red Berry waffles (the other half was burnt by my awesome toaster)

11:45 am: 1 large Gala apple, Special K snack bar

2:00 pm: Turkey and lettuce on a whole grain flat bread wrap with fat-free italian dressing, small bowl of cut cucumbers and petite carrots with fat-free Balsamic Vinaigrette, one stick of lite string cheese, one square of Dove dark chocolate

6:30 pm: 1/2 orange

7-7:30 pm: bike ride and exercises at the park

8:00 pm:
Bowl of lentil soup, steamed zucchini

9:00 pm: 8 bing cherries, one square Dove dark chocolate

It's 11:30pm.. and I still have loads of homework to do. It isn't homework that needs to be turned in, just homework that has to be done in order to study for the exams. My prof gives us timelines to help us stay on track but the load is so heavy I am about 5% complete with the assignment due yesterday! AND, this is only for one class.. I haven't even mentioned the other class yet, yikes!

Hopefully bed soon,
