A Super Exercise Day

This morning I made it to the gym at 5am and swam for about 30 minutes, and then later made it to a different gym for strength training, so I am very happy with myself on both counts!! Plus, my healthy eating is going well. Last night we made Parsnip Chips from Veganomicon, a vegan cookbook. They were truly fantastic! I also tried a new type of bean that has an inherent sweetness, called Chana Dal. It was ok, with complex flavors, and I'm looking forward to trying other preparations of it. We had a kiwi fruit for dessert, and then some popcorn with "I Can't Believe It's Not Butter" spray and seasoning salt. It was a very lowfat day in terms of diet. The vegan concept is a great way to focus on healthy foods without focus on calories. Also, it's hard to over eat on veggies - it would take effort.
