Too many vegetables

Phew, there is such a thing as too many vegetables. I had a huge salad (a very good one) for lunch, had a minor family crisis and lost my appetite for dinner. Ate it anyway. A fajita "tostada," Dave loved it. It was just vegetables and then chicken with some fajita mix on them, wrapped in foil and baked. Topping was an avacado, some tomato with lime juice and garlic. Next time I'll just bake the veggies and fry up the chicken a little better. We had it with baked tortilla chips. Good, but I'm glad today is a normal day. I could have had a luna bar yesterday, but I truly didn't have the appetite for it.

Today I had a thin bagel, milk and a banana for breakfast, and will have thin pizza with popcorn and feta stuffed strawberries for lunch. Also a luna bar for a snack. This all adds up to a surprising amount, but it leaves me 700 cal to eat a "lite" dinner at Relief Society tonight.

Exercise continues to be a problem with terrible weather and a dicey leg. Actually, the leg is the question of the day. The last few nights it's hurt enough to keep me up at night in spite of a prescription. Last night it felt better--so much better that I didn't take the prescription. My leg is tired and sore, but it finally feels normal. So do I get the MRI for it on Saturday? I'm going to try some major walking tomorrow and see how it goes.
