Day 151 & 152: Lazy Sunday, Tired Monday & Wedding Pics on the Way

Sunday went exactly as planned! I did very, very little and bummed around until about 7 when we headed to Kroger and Trader Joe’s to stock up for the week. When we got home we decided not to cook, and just had sandwiches/chips – YUM! But we DID cook a few meals for the week: 4 servings of chili, 4 servings of egg/back/cheese mix for breakfast sandwiches, 3 servings of a new bean/egg/salsa mixture for breakfast wraps, 2 servings of blackened chicken and 2 servings of “fried” rice. WOO! I was beat – but not too beat to finally catch up on Ugly Betty & Grey’s Anatomy. Hmmm. Loving Ugly Betty – so freaking cute and I love how Betty is kinda getting tight with Mark & Amanda! Grey’s… I just don’t know. That storyline with the deathrow dude TOTALLY creeped me out… like I had nightmares! Wow. It seems the Denny deal is about to end – what does Izzy have? A tumor? Anyway – glad to be caught up – Grey’s has gotten much better than it was 3 episodes when I went on hiatus and Betty has stayed cute! So I went to bed late and ended up at 1,357 calories, 170 carbs and 43 fat grams. Here’s what I ate.

Yesterday I was exhausted. Blah. I did manage to eat a YUMMY bacon/egg/cheese sandwich, Austin’s fab chili for lunch a few yummy snacks (including 6 hershey’s kisses – eek!). I also got in 3.5 miles of cardio at lunch, and 2 miles + chest + triceps after work – awesome! When I got home we heated up the blackened chicken pasta and CHILLED – watched a few 30 Rock’s then got to work on the disclosure making notes that concerned us. We sent it off to Amanda and passed out! I ended up at 1,536 calories, 179 carbs and 38 fat grams – not bad! Here’s what I ate.

Today has been a great day so far! I woke up much more well rested than yesterday and ready to get some stuff done. Breakfast was a new concoction per an idea from Dailygoods. She made this awesome breakfast burrito with black beans, eggs and all of this fabulous stuff then grilled it on a George Forman! I made mine a little different and want to work on it a bit more before posting the recipe! It was yummy… but off somehow. I’m going to get to the bottom of it – and likely end up copying her! (didn’t have the ingredients on hand). Anyway – stayed busy all morning, walked 3 miles at lunch and then had my chicken fried rice. Glorious. Now I’m eating 4 Hershey’s kisses – YUM. Will post tomorrow about today’s eats – and I’m going to post some wedding pics (maybe all my favorites!) in celebration of my one-anniversary coming up in less than 13 days! (2/16). Hope you’re all having fabulous days! I can't wait to get to the gym after work and then get home! It's REALLY cold here - blah. And I've GOT to start posting what I eat - i'm so excited!

I love how you guys plan your meals and stick to them. I'm terrible at that. I just buy a ton of stuff and try to work em all into our meals. You are one organized chica!

I was just about to write that I was really impressed with how organized you are and I saw that someone else already wrote it!

I am still very impressed.

Also, do you go to the Trader Joe's in Midtown? I wonder if we've been there at the same time.

HK: Thanks, girl! Most likely dinner - ever since the Mexico trip fell through and we were so dissapointed and then this buying-a-house stuff crept up we think this year may be a low-key one!

DG: Thanks!! I did - I just need to make it just like you. I got confident, dailygoods - I must stick to the recipe! hehe

Neesha: We DO - we're not afraid to switch it up but it's easier to just stay on track. I should post the month of February! haha I was that way but I used to get sad when food spoiled! haha I can be really cheap... :)

Kelly: You must go see Dailygoods - it looks AMAZING!

In my tummy: aw thank you! I love being organized - always have. I asked for a type writer in elementary school and a rolltop desk "for the cubbies." This goes way back! hehe I go to the one in Buckhead off Peachtree next to Moondogs - it's pretty new. If i'm up near work I go to the one off roswell above 285!

Pissy: I can't wait to see you too! We need to discuss when we can hang out and what we're going to do!
