Now, it's a challenge for me to get to the studio, and so I don't practice as often as I'd like. Hoping to change that soon!

It's been a while...let's see. For breakfast, I usually had a small bowl of flax Plus or Uncle Sam's cereal with soy milk and a piece of fruit. No longer do soy milk after I realized I'm soy intolerant. Somedays, I would just do a protein bar. Lunch was usually a big salad or steamed veggies with protein. I did the vegetarian thing for 5 years and often had a veggie burger sans bun atop veggies. Or, I remember eating a lot of couscous with toasted almond and raisins. Some days, it was just a PB + banana sandwich with a side of veggies and maybe some dark chocolate for dessert. I usually had a piece of fruit or a handful of nuts as an afternoon snack. Some cereal + yogurt if I was extra hungry. Dinner was and still is veggie based - heaps of veggies roasted, stir-fried, or steamed plus a topping. Some nights, it's just tahini and other nights it might be ground beef or salmon. I always eat a post-dinner snack, usually either a plain baked sweet potato (a big one or two small ones) or a bowl of oat bran or oatmeal with some nut butter and maybe a sprinkle of dark chocolate chips. One thing that really aided in my weight loss was making water my beverage of choice. Before I lost the weight, I drank way too many of my calories - juice, milk, soda, etc. Making the switch to water made a huge difference for me! Hope this helps. :) Thanks Miffy.
