(Just in case you are wondering what those orange things are, I diced up sweet potatoes and roasted them in olive oil in the oven then when they came out I rolled them in brown sugar and cinnamon while still warm. I know I'm suppose to be watching my sugar intake but I didn't eat that many and they were so good.)

I did my interval walking/jogging tonight. Instead of jogging 60 seconds and then walking 90 seconds like it said for beginners on http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/index.shtml I just jogged as far as I could and then I walked. I ended up doing half my distance jogging. I did really good on flat land but when I got to the hills it was just to hard but at least I pushed myself tonight. I was really embarassed at first worrying about what people who drove by were thinking about someone my size jogging but I got over that. They may be thinner than me but at least I'm going to be healthier. My time tonight was 1.8 miles in 25 minutes.
I love sweet potatoes!
ReplyDeleteThis meal looks great! You really only need a small amount of sugar and cinnamon so it shouldn't be too bad. They look good!!
ReplyDeleteOMG, that meal looks de-lic-ious! I'm a diabetic and love carbs. I am trying to eat less of them, but it's a hard habit to break (darn it, did I just reference a Chicago song, my husband loves to sing that song, I don't love to hear it). Your portion size are great also btw.
ReplyDeleteI love sweet potatoes to Wendy but usually I just bake them in the microwave and then pile on the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Cooking them this way I got in my healthy oil and I only had to put alittle brown sugar and cinnamon on them.
ReplyDeleteThanks Debbi it was yummy and I really liked the sweet potatoes cooked this way and my kids loved them to.
Thanks Tammy. Its hard not to eat any carbs but I have cut way back. I was a macaroni and cheese and mashed potatoes kind of gal. I love the comfort foods, to bad they are all so bad for you.
