Summer Vacation is Almost Here

Well sort of… I am off for a week then start up summer camp. But enough of that.. Onto the not so exciting eats of the day. This morning was All Bran Strawberry Medley, Jumbo Rice Krispies, banana, cinnamon and Unsweetened Chocolate Almond Breeze. I brought my mug of coffee with me on my walk to work as usual.

The morning luckily flew by and when lunch came I was HUNGRY! I had a pear and cottage cheese with some walnuts on the side. At snack time I had a few mini oreos since they were calling my name.. AKA I had to put them in a container at work so I figured I would have a few! It started to rain around 3:15ish so luckily one of my coworkers had an umbrella for me to borrow :-D I came home had a few prunes and grapes and was off to the gym. I did 2 miles on the treadmill and lifted and heading home. I stopped of at my parents’ to pick up a few things then food shopping for some fruit and things for the kiddies. Dinner was not so healthy but exactly what I was craving. Potato bread with some Naturally Nutty Mocha Peanut Butter with strawberry jelly and a few TJ’s “sun chips” on the side. I also had a few Wavy Lays after I took the picture.

Dessert was 2 chocolate chip cookies and some pineapple while I was packing it up for work. MMMMM I am also trying to finish up reading Naturally Thin.. We’ll see if that happens… 

Now its time to watch the Big Bang Theory with Adam (its his favorite show!!). Have a great night guys!

A Quick One

The new season of Bridezillas is coming on right now, so I’m making this uber quick!

I slept 7 whole hours last night thanks to some Benadryl :-D

Breakfast was the same bowl of cereal as yesterday, Kashi U and some Jumbo Rice Krispies, banana, cinnamon and Unsweetened Chocolate Almond Breeze… MMM there was a big old cup of coffee in there too ;)  

I cleaned the place up ran Adam’s laundry to his mom’s then went out shopping with mommy for an outfit for Joey’s graduation. I can’t believe that he is graduating from high school and going to college in 2.5 months! SO SCARY!! That just means I am getting old… hahah I was craving a parfait for lunch so I went to Einstein Brother's across the street. This totally hit the spot! I added more granola since there wasn’t enough for my liking :-P I went a bit overboard because I was full after eating half of this and some pineapple.

So we went down to Point Pleasant Beach Boardwalk to walk around and get Adam a sausage pepper and onion sandwich. I of course had a bite and a diet coke since it was HOT HOT HOT out! FINALLY!!! We came home and crashed for a bit, and finished up the parfait and had a piece or 2 of chocolate ;) I did lesson plans and some abs and Wii Active. We also picked out our invitations for the wedding so now we just have to give it to Adam’s mom (she works for a printing company) WOOHOO for free invites :-D Dinner was some of my leftover salmon, a couple fries (there were some more eaten before I took the picture) and half a sweet potato with Newman’s Own Salsa. The salmon was so spicy so I had a piece of bread with some margarine to cool off the fire in my mouth ;)

Dessert was 2 spoonfuls of Coconut milk ice cream (chocolate) and a chocolate chip cookie :-D

now its time to watch Bridezillas! Have a great night chicas.

Quick Recap

Good Evening All!

How is your weekend going? Mine has been super busy so I thought I’d give a quick picture recap of my eats.. last night was the fun night out for my early birthday din din! The big 28 is coming on Wednesday!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!! lol ok here is breakfast from yesterday and today. Today I tried Kashi U and I really liked it a lot! Its got a great flavor with the currents! I also had coffee both days…  

Lunch yesterday was yogurt, granola, pineapple and cherries and some goldfish. Today was a pear with cottage cheese and pretzels and maybe a piece or 10 of chocolate :-P (it was one of those days!).  

Dinner last night was so good! We went to The Sand Bar in Brielle, its right on the water and even though it was a rainy and yucky night I still enjoyed looking out at the Manasquan River :-D I got a Cosmo to start off with and a salad with honey mustard dressing. The salad was not anything to write home about so I picked at it a bit and dipped some tasty bread in the dressing. Adam got Clams Casino and I had one of those since he twisted my arm :-P My entree was the Blackened Salmon with veggies doused in butter :( and crunchy yummy fries! I Almost forgot to take the picture but this is what I had left!!! I did try lots of Adam’s dinner too! He got a platter of all types of seafood in a spicy Tabasco sauce over pasta. WOW this was spicy and good! I had a shrimp, a bite of Mahi Mahi and a bite of lobster.. MMMMMMM I love me some seafood! I then had a Miller Lite since my mouth was on fire and I was tipsy from drinking the Cosmo too quickly since the salmon had a kick too! I had a few bites of the dessert Adam picked.. I have no idea what it was.. lol but I can’t turn down a dessert. It wasn’t my favorite so I had 2 bites and when we got home I chugged a ton of water and had one of my vegan chocolate chips that I made. YUM YUM! I definitely enjoyed my dinner out but my stomach isn’t thrilled with me today!   

Dinner tonight was a quick Boca Cheeseburger with a small salad since we were running around all day and didn’t get home until 7! I was about ready to gnaw my arm off! lol

To make up for all the food yesterday I did 2.5 miles on the treadmill yesterday and lifted and did about 10 minutes of wii active after dinner because I had ants in my pants :-P Today I did 2.5 miles on the treadmill while reading Naturally Thin by Bethenny Frankel. Adam and I then went for a walk on the boardwalk (about 1.5 miles) and tonight after all the running around and shopping I did a bit more wii active. I am totally loving it! I did snack on another 2 of my yummy cookies that I baked tonight when we got home before doing the Wii..

QUESTION:

Has anyone else tried the Wii Active yet? What do you think about it? I think it is a great supplement to what I am already doing. I figure something is better than nothing! And it makes me feel good that I am doing a bit extra while sitting at home on my arse ;)  I hope everyone is having a great weekend! See you tomorrow chickies!

Its Almost Friday! Thank Goodness!

Hi Guys! How is everyone? Good I hope! I woke up with my alarm after waking up a few times through out the night. I had my usual bowl of cereal and a few almonds and peanuts and brought a mug of coffee with me to work. 

I had to drive today since it was raining out, YUCK! I had 13 kids today and it was a tad crazy being stuck inside all day and tomorrow is the same :( please shoot me! Lunch came and I was totally ready for a break. I had a salad with red peppers, romaine, cucumbers, hummus, croutons and some balsamic vinaigrette. I also had tons of pineapple and some goldfish (2 handfuls) for my treat. After work I hit up the gym and did 2.25 miles on the treadmill and came home to go to the gym and drop off a prescription at Pathmark. We came home and made up a ham steak in some pineapple juice and a salad. I also had a half a piece of ww bread with some tasty margarine on it. I wasn’t really in the mood for this din din but it hit the spot.

Then the baking bug bit me and I went to Vive Le Vegan to check out the Home Style Chocolate Chip Cookies. I love these cookies and Adam enjoys them too! Of course for dessert I had to try 2 out! yum yum I love this bad boys! 

I’m off to watch The Big Bang Theory and read some of Bethanny Frankel’s book tonight! I am so excited that they got it in at the library and called me today since I had put a hold on it :-D Its gonna be a fun night! See everyone tomorrow!

Getting Stuff Done!

Good Evening Chickies! How was your day? Mine flew by! Not that I am complaining in the least ;) I woke up a bit early today and got my day started. I made up a bowl of cereal, checked my email, made an iced coffee and watched the news for a bit.

I then trekked to work hoping it wouldn’t rain since I really didn’t want to drive. The morning came and went and the skies weren’t looking happy so I walked home to get my car and gym clothes. Once back to work I ate my yogurt, granola with almonds, and tons of pineapple. I also had a big old handful of pretzel goldfish Gosh I love those things! After work I went to the gym and snacked on a Fiber One bar before going in. I did a little over 2 miles on the treadmill and did some weights stopped by my parents house to say hi (and snacked on my body weight in darn grapes and had a piece of chocolate) then came home to do my report cards. I got those out of the way and made up some din din since Adam went to his brother’s house to get his haircut (his sister in law is a hair stylist). I had a tasty crack wrap with roasted red pepper hummus and Swiss cheese. I snacked on some carrots with hummus while making it up. and had the rest of my sweet potato fries and some Bread and Butter pickles on the side, while watching King Of Queens.  

I love me some quiet dinner nights, don’t get me wrong I love having dinner with Adam or anyone else for that matter but its just nice sometimes to have “Megan:” time. After dinner I cleaned up took out some garbage and did some Wii Active. I did some cardio and lower body stuff which only took about 10 minutes (didn’t wanna do much on a full belly) Then it was shower and blog time! I snacked on a few pieces of chocolate after I got out of the shower. (Picture X2)

Now its time to catch up on blogs and chat with my sweetie. Hope everyone had a great hump day! See you tomorrow!

No Thunderstorms!

Thank goodness we didn’t get the terrible storms they were predicting for our area :-D I walked to and from work and was worried I would get caught in it.

Onto the eats, Breakfast this morning was a Chocolate Power Bar and an iced coffee I blended up in the magic bullet before heading off on my .25 mile trek to work ;) 

The morning flew by and before I knew it it was lunch time! I wasn’t very hungry but ate my apples and cottage cheese anyway. I also had some goldfish for a “treat”.  

After work I had a meeting with my boss to go over next year to talk about her getting a curriculum for my 2 year old class! I’m excited because I think it would really help to have something I could follow for the year :) When I got home around 4ish I was hungry and decided on a snack before heading off the gym. I had a few prunes and some almonds and went and did 2.25 miles on the treadmill and browsed some trashy magazines. I came home got a few things done and was starving again! WHAT IS MY PROBLEM! DAMN GIRLIE HORMONES! lol Dinner was my leftover veggie burger from dinner on Saturday night with my home made sweet tater fries and some b&b pickles.. 

MMM I also tried Adam’s Kielbasa/sausage veggie dish he whipped up, and boy was it YUMMY!

I did some stuff for work then did about 13 minutes of my Wii Active, I make up my own work outs so I can pick and choose what I want to focus on. I really love this “game” and hope it can help tone me up a bit if I stick to it! How can I not when I can do it anytime at home? In my PJS!!! :-D Dessert was a couple pieces of chocolate and a few cherries that were inhaled before the camera even had a chance to come out! lol 

I hope everyone had a great day, 3 more until the weekend.. not that I am counting or anything… hahah

Quick And Painless Monday

Hiya all!

How was your Monday? I have to say I didn’t sleep to well last night but luckily I had some energy to get through the day. Oh I did end up having some tasty chocolate last night (X2).

I got up at 7:30 and had my usual breakfast and brought a mug of coffee with me on my walk to work.

The morning flew by since it was gorgeous and we could get outside for a good half hour. By the time lunch came I wasn’t very hungry but ate up anyway. I  had my Dannon Light and Fit with granola/walnuts and tons of watermelon and pineapple. At snack time I might have had a cookie or 2 ;) After work I walked home and got ready for the gym, and snacked on a few prunes and almonds then headed out. I did 2 miles on the treadmill at 12.5 % incline and 4.1 mph. I also did some weights for my back then came home. I relaxed for a bit then made up a PB&J sammy on WW with some Brother’s All Natural Chips and a few real ones snuck on my plate too ;) After dinner I had a few cherries because they were in the fridgie calling my name!

We went for a walk on the bike trail near the house and did about 1.5 miles, its supposed to rain off and on for most of the week so we wanted to get some walking in tonight. I came home got some stuff done did some ab work and snacked on a few pieces of chocolate (picture X2)

I’m off to watch some trashy TV and relax with my sweetie! I hope everyone has a great night! See ya tomorrow.
