Easter dinner and I did good :-)

We had the whole family over for Easter dinner today and I kept to my commitment of taking just a little of everything and not overeating. I just checked out my calories, fat, etc. and I went over the calories by only 28 calories, but stayed within the fat grams allowed. I have to say that I am quite proud of myself. I am not feeling overly full like I usually do on these special meals. I ate just enough to feel full and to enjoy all the yummy food that had been prepared. Menu for the day: breakfast - two pancakes, strawberries, maple syrup, lunch - half a turkey, cheese and tomato sandwich, bowl of pea and ham soup, supper - turkey, stuffing, potatoes, carrots, beans, gravy, apple streusel. After supper, we all went for a half hour walk - it was quite cool outside, but I am glad we went - it's good for my exercise program and it was fun walking and talking with Colin along the way. :-) i found a great website yesterday - it's called Sparkpeople.com. There is so much on it that I won't cover it all, but it has a few things that I am using so far and I am hopeful they will help me be successful in my quest to lose weight and 'health up'. I use their food tracker - I load in what I have eaten for the day and the tracker tells me how many calories I have eaten and how many grams of fat as well. I can also track how much exercise I do in a day. I also entered the three goals of drinking 8 glasses of water a day, writing in my journal every day and getting 10 minutes of cardio a day. I can't wait to find out what else there is to do on this site.
