Yesterday things were somewhat less busy (kind of) and I did manage to get a picture of lunch--grilled fish tacos! Yummy! We used tilapia and made them in foil packets with lime juice. Unfortunately, when I went to get the toppings together, I realized we were out of sour cream and our avocado was a little overripe. The tacos were still good. I served them with grilled pineapple (pineapples were on sale last week--88 cents each, in case you are wondering.)
It's been a week or two now since I got on my restricted sugar/anti-belly bloat foods/no Diet Coke kick and I have to say I have noticed a definite difference. It is possible that it is all in my head, but I definitely feel like I look slimmer in the mid-section. I try to ask Ryan if he can tell a difference, but all he says is that I look good. Seeing that he said the same thing when I was pregnant with twins and weighed over 200 pounds, it is hard to judge if he is telling the truth. Either way, I feel really good, and that is all that matters, right?!
Okay--eight hour break between what I last wrote and this. I am on my way to work, but I wanted to try to get this in.
Breakfast: same old, same old
Snack: Greek yogurt (on the run)
Lunch: Qdoba Naked Chicken taco salad--eaten in about 3 minutes flat (NO time today!!)
Snack: Berry shake inhaled on my way back out the door
Dinner: Spaghetti and Meatballs with added yellow squash in the sauce. Thanks to someone at church whose garden is a heck of a lot more prolific than ours.
I also did a bike ride and total body strength. And now I have to run...AGAIN.
Just wanted to tell you thanks for keeping up with this blog. I'm sure it adds just one more thing to an already busy life.
ReplyDeleteI was just feeling proud of myself with my ground turkey for hamburger swap, sneaky veggies in the casserole, and egg whites (I found the carton you mentioned - thanks!). We still have a way to go, but - baby steps. My main obstacle is just not liking a lot of veggies. Sadly. Life would be much nicer if I liked salad.
Amen Mean mommy. Thanks for the keeping it up. I like the squash picture of your girls, like it came from your garden. Nice! Lindsay you are inspiring. Question, what does squash do for your body?
