New Look

Hey yall! Like my new look? I found this layout using the link I found at VeggieGirl's blog.

Saturday Recap:

* update* Body:
Gym- circuit cardio
7 minutes on the treadmill (1 mile)
7 minutes on the stepmill (oh yes I tried it again )
7 minutes on the elliptical
7 minutes on the stat bike (3.5 miles)
7 minutes treadmill (1 mile)
5 minutes cool down elliptical

It was fun, kept me excited and pumped up.

no video because we were running around until evening

We ran some shopping errands, went to the gym, then got back and Jeff made me lunch!!! It was soooo delicious too!

He made salad with organic baby greans, organic fresh cut veggies and purple cabbage and then pan cooked chicken breasts. He used hot sauce, red pepper flakes, and a little worchestire. DELCIOUS! He also gave me two pickle slices because I had wanted to eat my dad's pickle friday night. I topped mine with a little goddess dressing.


We were immediately off to his alum's football practice.

That's the head coach in the red floppy hat. They opened it to the public since they are prepping for a bowl game. His nephew, brother and stepdad met us there. It was raining and chilly and windy but it was alot of fun, especially when we all got to go on the field and talk with the players. his nephew was TRHILLED!

Dinner:
Whole wheat linguini with tomato sauce ( i used tomatoes in basil and oregano, leftover marinara, leftover sicilian sauce* and some chopped olives, a teaspoon of olive oil).

I forgot I had organic spicy bean sprouts, AND hearts of palm ( that white thing on the left, they taste like a mild artichoke) so I used them, and then all the same salad ingredients from lunch for my salad ( minus chicken).

Pre Class Snack: Odwalla Super Protein Bar - I had most of it but brought the rest home so I could take a photo of it. These bad boys are 21% organic, have 220 calories and 16g of protein! I think they are absolutely delicious and taste like good food should, not like a protein bar with sugar alcohols...

Dinner:

Stir-Fry!
Grilled Chicken ( perdue chicken without hormones and raised in partially cage free hens)
Trader Joes Organic Green Beans and TJ Bell Pepper Mix (frozen and thawed in microwave)

Sauce: Lite Soy , Tbs Peanut Oil ( I don't buy this, I actually drain the oil from the Smucker's natural peanut butter I get and save it in a jar for occasions like this), Hot Sauce ( texas pete) and some of the General Tso's sauce I got a few weeks ago.

White Rice ( which I have never liked- not because it is starchy or lack of fiber- I just never liked it. Along with mashed potatoes, something about white food never sat right with me- I always wanted color and if something was white it should be sugary sweet. I know, I'm an oddball)
- i made it because I know Jeff wanted it and he is sick! I used a whole wheat tortilla but I did have a teaspoon of rice
