We have a special Evensong + reception at my new church this afternoon. Hopefully my post-workout snack will help me to "be good" at the reception. I am finding a sugar weakness right now for some reason. Having problems eating enough - which is why I am adding a protein + yogurt or cottage cheese snack to make sure things are where they should be. My body appears to be responding :-)
