Thanks you guys! We did have a great weekend with great friends. Sounds like you all had some fun too and that most of us agree- Sundays are best spent relaxing and being lazy! We deserve it! :)
2 servings - Tostados (with refried beans and avocado)
My serving with a side of greens!
Austin's with an extra tostado!

Kinda gross pic again! haha Taken with my iPhone at work today in the plastic container - the picture didn't stand a chance! LOL
YUM! This made it SO easy – next time I’m going to do Mexican-flavored beef or maybe Italian-flavored chicken – TOO easy!!

Aside from the Mexican mixes, not much was up yesterday! Just read and chilled. Austin was CRAVING Thai and as you may have noticed we rarely go out to eat! So he ordered in his favorite Rasa Sayung, panang curry chicken, spring rolls and coconut soup. Oh my! I ate too much and was SO FULL. I ended up at 2,009 calories, 152 carbs, 95 fat grams and 119 protein grams. WOWZA on the fat grams - eek! Here's what I ate.
Today was a Monday! It wasn't too bad though - just worked, walked 4 miles during lunch (burned 165), worked more and walked 2 miles after lunch doing the upper body circuit from Friday (burned 133). Total burn for the day: 298. Then I headed home, cooked up a few things, watched a Castle with Austin, ate leftover Thai food and got going on my book - I hope to finish it tonight!! I ended up at 1,676 calories, 182 carbs, 71 fat grams and 89 protein grams. Here's what I ate.
In a bit of fun bloggie-related news - I won a giveaway! You should know that i've never won a giveaway so this was super exciting! So what did I win?

That's a great idea to make the chicken ahead of time. I really think I need a crock pot in my life.
