Madonna's thighs

I know you might think I'm crazy, but one of my goals in life is to have Madonna's thighs when I'm her age. Well, my 5'3" body's version of her thighs.

Madonna - in case you've been living under a rock since "Lucky Star" hit the airwaves - is, in recent years quite the yogini. She is also reported to drink about 2 liters of water a day. (Specially blessed Kabbalah water at that.)

While I don't think my water intake needs to be quite that enlightened, I am interested in looking to see what I can do (or not do) to meet this goal. It's super important to me to have these types of goals to focus on when it's 10:30 at night, I'm home & hungry and I have everything at home to make a gluten free apple pie - and the only person watching me is the cat.

So... what to eat? That is the question. Lots of people will tell you, don't eat after 8pm (or sometimes even earlier). That's great, in theory, and if you can do that successfully I applaud you. Because of my severe reactive hypoglycemia, I have to eat every few hours. I have been very successful with not eating COMPLEX CARBS after 8pm, unless for some reason I am working out that evening. On those days I just arrange to remove the carbs from an earlier meal to substitute. Tonight is not a workout night, it's a rest on my couch and chill out night. Shall I make popcorn, or shall I eat something that gets me closer to Madonna's thighs? (That didn't sound quite right, or did it...?)

Looking in the fridge I have hard- boiled eggs (wow, thinking ahead, amazing) and I think I'll go with that...

So I took 3 hard boiled eggs (removing 2 of the yolks) and added about 1 1/2 TBSP of mayo - Spectrum's flax oil mayo has been my favorite for years - a dash of paprika & a squirt of lemon juice. Cut 4 stalks of celery into dipping-sized sticks, and voila! Delicious healthy late night snack-arama!

Egg yolks, fyi, are one of the easiest ways to consume choline, which helps your body make the neurotransmitter acetylcholine: super important for cognition & learning.
