Today was cold and windy and cold, but I still managed to myself OUT of my house by 6:20am and to the gym. By the way, I love having a gym that's a 3 minute drive away. So I got in and out by 7:35. My knee didn't cause me too much grief and I made sure to do my exercises & stretch!
Breakfast: protein shake with banana & coconut milk (blended in) & a bagel with peanut butter
Snack: grapes
Lunch: we were out all morning at a friends house and traffic was terrible so by the time we got home I was starving and I had 2 cranky over tired kids. I quickly ate some ritz crackers...not the smartest choice. I then made a bowl of pasta with marinara sauce. I added some dried seaweed sheets to it. This might sound so gross, but it was pretty good. I was still hungry....in hindsight I should have just filled up my water bottle and drank up, but instead served myself a bowl of veggie straws pretzels & 1 tbsp of pb. (I have to measure my pb or else I go caaarazy!!!!)
Dinner: I had half of adelades burrito (we are almost done our leftovers...not yet though) I wasn't terribly hungry because I had such a big snack.
But then....then I made a yummy pumpkin loaf!! Oh it was deeelicious :)
I definitely had more than one piece, but less then the whole thing (3 or 4 slices.... Oh it was good. BUT the good thing is I stopped eating by 8 pm and now I am chilling out watching elf with my hubster!
So usually on the weekends I don't have the greatest eating habits (the honest truth is not always easy to acknowledge, but it's worth it) and my goal in doing all these posts is to help me overcome my poor eating habits that are keeping me from my ultimate health & fitness goals. Anyway, tomorrow we have a brunch at a friends house AND a Christmas party. Sooooo here are my goals---keep it vegan & only one serving at each meal and no treats. I know myself and if I have one I go OVERBOARD so no desserts that I don't make--- also they most likely have eggs & butter in them, which doesn't sit well in my tummy.
Okay nuff said --peace out friends
