My quotidian diet

After reading April's blog about caloric restriction, I decided to post my daily diet. I often mix things up a bit, but here is the general idea:

1) Breakfast - A bowl of cereal with 1% milk. This morning I had Nature's Path Organic Flax Plus Raisin Bran with 11g of fiber and 600mg of Omega-3 per serving. And a large cup of green tea.
2) Lunch - A handful of walnuts, another handful of dried apricots and a small salad with cherry tomatoes.
3) Dinner - A veggie burger on Sara Lee Heart Healthy Plus 100% Multi-Grain bread with 4g of fiber per slice - topped with romaine and a slice of tomato. Served with a baked potato and Brussels sprouts.
4) Snack - Sometimes I will have a handful of blueberries or a banana and often I will have an after dinner snack of light microwave popcorn (which is actually pretty healthy - except for the salt) or some Oatscream. Have you ever tried Oatscream? I love it.
5) Evening tea - while I scan the stocks I have a jar of Rooibos tea.

Sometimes I break down and eat a lot more, but I strive to eat like this. I think exercise is just as important and I go for a walk or run every day. You must eat more to exercise and the key is to find the perfect balance.

Where do the pork rinds fit in?

Probably in with the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers.
I hope your move to Beijing went well.
Remember to feed the kid organic babyfood.
