So I cleaned our house from top to bottom for two hours this morning. And now I am ready to go back to bed! Ha! But really it looks very nice and I'm happy to see my friend later today.
When I finally sat down for breakfast I poured a big bowl of cereal, and then found out there was only about a quarter cup of milk in the fridge. I moistened my cereal and just ate it. At that point I was so hungry I was willing to make do with what I had. Ryan and I are going food shopping in a bit, so I see some yogurt in my near future.
My cereal is photographed with an orange:
But I ended up subbing the orange for half a large banana at the last minute:

It was nice to see upon waking this morning that the rain has finally stopped. I swear it'd be raining forever. Tomorrow my bestest friend from college is coming to visit. I haven't seen her in months because we both work full time jobs and she's going to school for her Ph.D. I'm so proud of her. So, I'm trying to get the house as tidy as can been because she's yet to see the new home =)
As for today, I'm going to head out to my hometown to visit with my family for a bit. Ryan is at work for half the day so I'll be meeting him back here later this afternoon. Enjoy! Thank goodness it's Friday again! I'm a little sleepy this morning so I'm looking forward to catching up on some sleep this weekend. Let's hope for a fast Friday. I long to be right back here on my couch! Enjoy your weekends =)
I woke up this morning with an appetite for the first time this week, so although I'm still in pain, maybe I'm starting to get better! The weather is drab and dreary here in NY today, but it's already Thursday so that's reason enough to be in good spirits. The weekend is just around the corner!
I'm still a little full this morning from last night's dinner--always a clue that I ate just a little too much the night before!--so I'm bringing a light breakfast with me to eat at work. I also have some skim milk that I brought to work yesterday that I never used, so I plan on drinking that as well.
Happy middle of the week! I only worked a half day at work today. My stomach has been in a bit of a funk, as you will see from my eats thus far today. But not feeling the best, I just grazed on the cereal for a couple of hours. For lunch I also kept it plain and simple. I ate an ounce of deli chicken and a slice of sharp cheddar cheese atop a slice of Italian bread, with some pretzels on the side. I know I haven't eaten much of anything today, but now that I'm back at home I'll be trying some more food in a bit. I'd been a little hungry all morning, I just didn't want to upset my stomach too much at work.
Good morning! I hope everyone awoke to a sunny Monday like I did, and if not, I hope it gets sunny soon! Here's hoping to a painless and quick work week! Happy June =)
I love waking up early on a Saturday morning, especially when there's sun shining through all the windows. It just makes the day seem so much more optimistic and full. Boy am I glad it's Friday! When my alarm went off this morning I thought "Ugh," but then realized it was already Friday and popped out of bed! Even though it was a short work week, it felt like a full one. I really wish I could post to you throughout the work day. But believe it or not, we only have one old school computer in an office of four that hardly allows us to do anything, and I work at a hospital! It blows my mind anyway. Moving on--For lunch I had two toasted ww pitas. I topped the pitas with that peanut butter there in the container, and ate orange bell pepper and watermelon on the side. For my mid-afternoon snack I decided to switch things up a bit. I ate a hard-boiled egg with a slice of American cheese (x2 for the cheese). Now I'm winding down and re-grouping for the night to come! Happy Friday!
For breakfast this morning I had a bowl of Optimum Blueberry Cinnamon. I'm trying to use it up so I can get another cereal! It's grown on me a little bit, but it's still not a favorite. On the side I had a small bowl of watermelon from the baby watermelon that I cut up last night. When it came time for lunch I wasn't quite as hungry as usual, but I knew if I waited I might lose the opportunity to photograph it. I toasted up a ww pita and topped it with deli chicken and American cheese. I also had a produce plate filled with apple, grapes, and baby carrots, and an ounce of pretzels. Finally, as a snack I had my usual vanilla Chobani, and topped it with half a TLC Honey Almond Flax bar. I eat Greek yogurt so often as a snack because I find it a great way to get in a dairy serving, and also because it really does the job of filling me up between lunch and dinner.
I think we all can relate to the time between lunch and dinner as being a junk food trap. Having something that really sticks to my stomach like Greek yogurt keeps the cravings at bay. |
