Why Do you Do This?

Exercise: Bodyweight exercises
Food: 7 bananas, orange and apple juice, salad- baby greens, pomodorino tomatoes, avocado with coriander and lime dressing/sesame citrus dressing, 250g dates, some almonds

Got home late could have not eaten the almonds but did. But about six hours from my last meal. And will be up for a couple of hours. Today the digestion and elimination were very good despite the almonds eaten rather late. So eating them on an empty stomach helps plus remember I'm not eating until noon. That is making a difference no doubt and is becoming a habit which is great.

The timetable for eating seems to be falling into a pattern bananas 12noon, smoothie or juice at 2pm, salad 4/5pm. I have a lot of evening commitments so sometimes get some dates, or nibble on almonds when I do finally get in. But if I were to go straight home then potentially I would have maybe fruit pudding, or canteloupe milk, other fruit or smoothie around 7pm and that would be it.
