Salading in December

My blood sugar is on the rise again, and I've gained a couple pounds I didn't need, so I'm cutting myself down to two meals a day, with one being a salad like this one at lunch or dinner. Dieting is never fun, but during the holidays while everyone is stuffing themselves with treats? Really hard.

To add more exercise to my regime I'm taking the dogs for two walks a day now as well. My knee hasn't let me use the bike yet, but I'm hoping with some weight loss and the walking I can get it back into daily bike shape.

It's a bagged salad I buy at the market -- Fresh Express Asian Chopped Salad -- and it is really good. https://www.freshexpress.com/products/salad-kits/asian-chopped-salad-kit

I tend to salad a lot during the holidays. There's too much food and sweets and sometimes I just want something lighter.
