B: 1/2 cup oatmeal, 1/2 banana, brown sugar (I have now cut this down to 1/2 tbsp from 1-1 1/2), 10 almonds, almond milk
L: spring greens, 1/4 avocado, beet, kabocha squash
S: papaya
1/2 apple
coffee
D: 1/2 chicken quarter, no skin (nice and tender, thanks Mom)
eggplant/tomato/zucchini/onion/garlic stirfry (added paprika today! great spicy flavor, yum)
Dess: 1/2 apple

Exercise: 50 min "Cardio Mix" - tried out the Miramar gym today. There's still reasonably bad traffic going there at 5 PM (too close to freeway entrances), and the gym is very old and rundown compared to the one in La Jolla. However, the pros are that: a) it's not as crowded, and b) the group exercise room is HUGE, so even if I came late it probably wouldn't be a problem. Will try to get to the classes that aren't during rush hour. Cardio Mix was ok - not nearly as fun as Zumba, but it had me break a sweat for sure.

Happy First Day of Spring!
My diet has improved a little since removing myself from the MET and its free food. Weight for the last few days has been much more stable because of it, which is a relief. It's not nearly as 'clean' as my eating back in May/June 2013, but better than 1 year ago.
