burning fat or burning calories?

Hola,

Just got back from zumba and class totally kicked my arce.  30 minutes into class and I had no energy. I betcha anything its due to the lack of carbs. I was so tempted to eat my sweet potato before class but if I'm going to go grain free---then there's no cheatin.  I think the reason I was feeling light headed, tired and out of it was because my body is burning stored calories vs recently eaten calories. It's only day 2 but we shall see.

Breakfast was vanilla protein powder (diabetic friendly), banana, berries and almond breeze.  I snacked on 1/2 pear and then found myself starvin at 11:30.  I ate my broccoli, chicken and the other half of the pear and then headed out for 2.5 mile walk. Lovin th is weather.

Around 4:30, I went to the student center and they had a taco bar. Yay.. that's exactly what I wanted. I ate lettuce, tomatoes, onions and shredded chicken with lots of salsa.  Then headed to zumba around 6:30.  Why do woman take their little kids to zumba? It's just not safe but I understaned. They have to make it work and I was extra careful not to plow into the little 3 year old that was next to me.

After coming home, I prepped for tomorrow. I have onions, garlic and 3 types of peppers all chopped up in a ziplock baggie. They'll be helpful for egg scrambles or salads.  I then cooked up chicken (glutten free) sausages. I know I"m not suppose to eat processed meats but I had to use them. I just hate wasting food. Surely the cavemen made some sort of sausage, right?  I also shredded lettuce and carrots so I can have quick salads.  I found myself eating too much fruit today and that equals shuuugah.... No bueno.

Well, have a great evening. I'm about to watch Grey's Anatomy.  That show has sort of lost it's zest but what can I say, I 'm loyal to McDreamy and Meredith.  Later, gators.
