Salt & Humor

Just a quiet Monday. Some how the day managed to go from beginning to end in no time, starting with the 5 snooze sessions it took to get me out of bed!  It will be a quick post tonight.  I ate clean today and actually didn’t feel very hungry all day. I say, when the hunger is like that, you go with it.

Came home and did Jillian Michael’s- No More Trouble Zones. I have not wanted to go to the gym for a while now.  So, I am just going with that too. Have no worries though. Between yard work, Jillian and Jackie I have been getting my workouts in.

Tonight was one of those nights when you are not sure what to fix for dinner as far as the planning.  I kinda just started fixing one thing and then another. I managed to mix and match until I saw that I made plenty prepared for dinner and tomorrow’s lunch. Before you know it, I had a big plate.  My hunger finally kicked in.  I waited until dinner was done.  One of my bad habbits is to snacking before and while making dinner.  Bad news! Then I am to full for dinner. I have been working hard to knock that off.

Spinach and tomatoes with cooked frozen veggies on top with feta dressing,

quinoa polenta

carrot and sweet potato fries with mustard.

Dang, let me  say, I didn’t realize I was this hungry and it was soo good. Tonight I cooked the sweet potatoe fries a little bit longer and must say I prefer them with the burnt spots.  WOW!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Monday!

Gym workout yesterday was great.  Elliptical, 30 minutes and stair master, 20 minutes, 30  minutes arms and stomach.  Made a post workout green smoothie.  :)

For dinner I fixed collard wraps and carrot fries.

Stuffing, left over diced tempeh, mushrooms, red bell pepper, green onion, parsley and 1/4 cup TVP. I blanched the collard leaves and rolled.  Extremely filling and I still had left over filling that topped my lunch salad.

Anyone else have this little issue when they are on the computer???

Today I wasn’t feeling the idea of going to the gym.  So I treated myself to 30 day shred instead. (ha-made a rhyme)  Great workout!  Then I also did Less is More yoga with Lizabeth Garcia.  I really enjoy this one.  It is only 18 minutes and a great workout (for me) it is probably considered basic yoga.  I am still a yoga newbie.  All I know is I can feel it the next day and that is exactly what I need.

While laying on the floor for abs I realized why it is that the tree skirt will not stay put!

HUH…. Fancy that!!!

Time to put some stuff in the magical bread machine.  It’s pizza night!
