Eating a Balanced Diet at Work


I always try to eat balanced meals, even when I'm at work. The day after Easter is no exception to this rule.

*

Today for my mid-morning snack, I balanced the sugar free jello (& the spoon) in one hand and then added Cadbury eggs to the other hand until an equal weight was found. I ate them. *
*
There were 6 eggs left over. I balanced 3 in one hand, and 3 in the other. I ate them.
*
*
Afterwards, the balance of bloatedness was equal to lethargy.
And the balance of wishing I hadn't was equal to the groaning heard throughout my office.
*
*
Oddly enough, after all that balancing, I do believe my balance of my weight this week is unequal to my weight last week! Go figure!
(Hmmmm! This reminds me of Red Hots, Licorice and a blue Hershey Kiss.)
*

Man! That's it for me trying to eat balanced meals!

After three days of watching what I eat and counting calories, I ate a bowl of Easter peanuts M&M's last night. I balanced it on my lap while watching tv. Balanced eating needs to happen at home, too!
p.s. I just found your blog and really like the idea of aging disgracefully. I think I'm on my way!
