upstairs Room

Yesterday, as I mentioned, I went to the dermatologist.  It is a project for me to go to any doctor appointment because for the most part, my doctors are in downtown Toronto.  Yesterday, we dropped Yumna to school and all headed downtown.  We dropped DH to work and then Safi and I hung out in Eaton Centre until we went to my appointment.  I really like these days, because I get to walk arounddowntown and chill.  We leave around 2:30pm so we have enough time to drive back and pick up Yumna from school.

Even though I did some walking during the day, I decided to work out while watching the Biggest Loser.  I am surprised by how much I love this show now.  I record it on the PVR because it is way too long, but when you have the handy fast forward you can watch the whole thing in half an hour.  Right now I’m rooting for Sunshine and her Dad.  I hope they can come back to the ranch.

So today, Safi and I are taking it easy.  Just cleaning up around the house and getting the little things done that need to be done.  I weighed in today at 169.4 lbs again.  I was surprised because I walked so much yesterday.  But, I also did eat half a slice of pizza.  So maybe they evened themselves out.

Last night I was making rice, and for some reason I thought I had a little bit of brown rice left in another bag so I added it to the brown rice I was making.  Turns out it was white rice, so I had a brown/white rice mix.  It was actually quite tasty.  So if anyone has hesitations about eating brown rice, try mixing the two and working yourself up.

So for lunch today, I stir-friend some garlic, mushrooms, spinach and lemon juice. It was so tasty, and EASY and ate it with some of the rice and a tablespoon of hummus.

As for yesterday’s post, I wasn’t meaning to complain so much about my skin.  I was just trying to get my thoughts out there about getting my health back in order.  I have really let things get out of control with respect to my skin, and I think I really need to apply the learning I have done with weightloss and it apply it to all aspects of my health.

Have a great Wednesday!
