Smile and make today worth it!

I found this quote this morning that simply explains my thoughts today.

Life's not always fair.  Sometimes you can get a splinter even sliding down a rainbow

 It was quoted by Chrrelea Morgan.

I have not written here since Friday.  I was not feeling the greatest this weekend so I just relaxed.

This morning I came into the office and was greeted during our morning meeting that a co-worker and dear friend passed away last night.    We are all very sad here today and productivity is low.   R.I.P  Beetle (D Bailey).

A couple of you asked me this past week about the nutrient values.   Coincidentaly I received an article on the Healthy Protein, Fats and Carb Ranges.   You can read the whole article by clicking here but I will give you the highlights. 

Basically it states:

• 45% - 60% of your daily calories should be eaten in carbohydrates
• 20% - 35% of your daily calories should be eaten in Fat
• 10% - 35% of your daily calolries should be eaten in Protein.

Today for Breakfast I had

Egg fried in olive oil spray, english muffin and a piece of black diamond cheese snack

Snack

Not a healthy one...package of animal crackers (130 calories)

Lunch

Roasted Beef (made yesterday for lunch) sandwich on whole wheat bread with mustard
Low fat Chocolate Pudding

Afternoon Snack

Forgot to have afternoon snack

Supper

Exercise.

Today I burned 300 calories in cardio alone.  I ran three miles on the treadmill at a speed of 6.2 mph and then did 10 mins of skipping.  Boy don't know how I skipped for so lung as a kid...it is tough to skip.

Until tomorrow remember....SMILE today :-)
