Lessons Learned:
I was way too hungry after work. I need to bring a snack to eat between lunch and dinner. Other than that, this was THE BEST OP DAY I HAVE EVER HAD. I met all of the GHGs and was satisfied with all of my choices. I have learned that if I eat mostly filling foods and stick to the GHGs, I can eat A LOT of food and still be OP. Yay!

August 31 Food & Exercise Plan:
morning- banana (1.5), granola bar (4)
midday- 1/2 cup beans (1), 1/2 cup salsa (0), 1 tsp EVOO (1), 4 wasa crackers (2), apple (1)
evening- "Throw together TOFU meal" (7), 2 cups vegetables (0), cereal (5), soy milk (1)
exercise- run/walk on treadmill (+6)
This plan leaves me with 1.5 points remaining. I don't know how to spend them yet, but I'm sure that I will come up with something!
