Chocolaty WIAW

by Tiff

Yesterday was full of ups and downs.  I had a bad run (more like, a bad attempt at a run), but I had a good full-body strength workout.  More on that tomorrow.  I had an awful breakfast, but I had an amazing dinner.  I guess it all evens out in the end, right?

First Breakfast – pre-gym peanut butter

FOOD

Second Breakfast – post-gym attempt at a blueberry protein pancake*

Food

*I just purchased Sunwarrior vegan protein, but I can hardly stomach the stuff.  I tried it in my beloved protein oats on Monday.  Ick.  I then tried it in the protein pancake.  Major Ick.  The irony is not lost on me – I realize I mixed 2 egg whites with my vegan protein powder to make the pancake.  It was still a flop.

Snack – a handful of almonds

Lunch – leftover turkey with green beans with sliced almonds (Who knew turkey could be so good even without gravy???)

Snack – finished up the leftover Halloween candy and later finished half a pear (which was originally supposed to go in my Stonyfield plain Greek yogurt… whooops.  chocolate > yogurt)

Dinner – veg chili, soooooooo good!

Snack – Nestle instant hot cocoa (totally unplanned, but when all the other girls at Bible study were sipping on theirs, I couldn’t help myself.  This chocolaty WIAW was totally worth it!)  Thanks to Jenn for hosting the WIAW party.

  • Have you gotten into Christmas candy yet?
  • Still got Halloween candy kicking around the house?

WIAW: Not Going Green

by Tiff

As you all might recall, March is the What I Ate Wednesday (WIAW) “Goes Green.”  While I do still love green veggies, I have to admit – I haven’t been showing them any much love.

Pre-Workout: Rice Cake

Post-Workout: Protein Oats (eaten in the dark in my car)

oats

Snack: Small Orange & Sunwarrior Vanilla Protein in Water (Sunwarrior kindly sent me some to try.  It’s thick, but it mixes better than any other protein powder I’ve had.  The taste wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t particularly good either.)

Lunch: Half Chicken Breast, Brown Rice, Onion, Red Bell Pepper, & Salsa

lunch

Snack: 0% Cottage Cheese & Small Orange (forgot to photograph – whoops!)

Snack: Rice Cake & PB (famished when I got home because of my sports doc appointment after work)

Dinner: Half Chicken Breast, Half Can Green Beans & Small Sweet Potato

Dessert: Cranberry Bran Vitatop (not recommended)

As you may have noticed, I didn’t stick to the LiveFit eating plan.  I’ll give an update on that tomorrow.  If you’re like me and feeling just a tad bit guilty of your extra snackage yesterday, just check out Kevin’s dinner.

noodles

Those are white egg noodles over slow cooked beef in red wine gravy (one of his favorite meals).  Feel better already, don’t ya?

Yes… he finished it all.
