Zone Day 32: yoga and dinner

I just got back from yoga (well, about 40 minutes ago), and I'm always surprised at how peaceful it makes me feel. The drive home seems much, much shorter than the drive there. I also noticed today while at yoga that my arms are getting stronger with each session. If you're in the Lansing/East Lansing area, I invite you to check out Hilltop Yoga. The sessions are affordable, and the teachers are great. Once my 30 day pass runs out (June 23rd), I'm going to try slow flow yoga and Vinyasa. I think I can, I think I can!

Dinner!
I felt like having some lean beef tonight (usually fills me up really good). I thawed a little over a pound of Laura's Beef (less than 4% fat--super lean!), and used about 3.5 oz. of it for a hamburger. The rest I'll use to make Zone chili. Yum!
Ingredients:
3-3.5 oz. of lean hamburger (less than 10% fat)
1 hamburger bun
1 large tomato slice (I improvised, since I like roma tomatoes)
1 large lettuce leaf (again, improv!)
1 tbs of lite mayo (although I think I used a bit less)
1 slice reduced-fat cheese
1 dill pickle spear
2/3 c. unsweetened apple sauce (with a sprinkling of cinnamon)

Directions:
Broil the hamburger until done (however you like it. Mooing or otherwise lol). When the burger is almost done, place cheese on top and broil for 30 more seconds. Place mayo on hamburger bun, the burger, then condiments. Serve pickle on the side. Apple sauce is for dessert! And of course water!
