Yo DaVita !!!
What a great day I had!
- Town hall with 48 teammates from around the country, all preceptors. Great questions.
- Academy #147, over 400 teammates from around the globe, including 42 from HCP.
- Lots of good meetings and calls, booked one after another like virtually all days, keeps me on my toes
- AND a heckuva MTM kind of day, with a banana mid am, then 2.5 servings of vegetables at lunch (asparagus, broccolini, corn and peppers), and 1.0 serving of fruit. For dinner another 2.5 servings of vegetables with my chicken, broccoli and zucchini that hit the spot.
It is good that I have scored heavily the last couple of days because I am flying to California tomorrow evening (Thursday), taking Friday off, and am staying the long weekend at a camp where it will not be easy to score as well. For things like my lunch today I pulled rank and asked the cook at our Casa cafeteria to give me extra vegetables. I won’t be able to do that at camp.
Hopefully you can feel the collective force of over 2000 Village citizens rooting for you to achieve your goals!
I am especially glad it was a good day because given how late I landed in Denver last night, I did not get to bed until 1:30 am body time (since I had spent the last 2 days on the east coast), which was 11:30 pm Denver time. I had to get up at 5:30 to get my workout in. 26 minutes of lifecycle, 8 minutes of stretching and balance, and about 4 for strength. Total of 38 minutes. Felt good!
I worked until 7 pm, then visited my mom at her long-term care facility. Now I am doing some emails, but as it is almost 11 pm denver time, it is bed-time.
All the best folks!!!!!!!!!!! kt

Glad to hear you’re doing well! I am too, fortunately! 17 lbs off since I started WW 3 weeks ago, and 10 lbs of that has been since starting MTM. I snack on cucumber slices now instead of popcorn. You’re right about the fiber. That’s just as important as the produce.

According to the http://wholegrainscouncil.org/ – “Sudies show that eating whole grains instead of refined grains lowers the risk of many chronic diseases. While benefits are most pronounced for those consuming at least 3 servings daily, some studies show reduced risks from as little as one serving daily. The message: every whole grain in your diet helps!”
