Just Beachy

Hey Everyone!  I’m posting early since we are leaving from the shore later tonight and will be getting home late…

Look what I saw this morning…

Now THAT’S what I’m talking about!

I wasted no time hopping on my bike and went for an awesome hour long ride with my Dad!  The weather was just perfect for riding :)

When I got back, I was huuungry.  I whipped up the same breakfast as yesterday:  bagel sammie with egg white and reduced fat cheese…

And Teeccino with a splash of soymilk…

Then, it was off to the beach…

We brought lunch to the beach and dug in not long after getting there.  Something about that sea air makes ya hungry!  I packed up a crabby salad for myself…

I could eat those giant crabcakes everyday!  I also munched on some of these Kettle Brand Baked Buffalo Bleu chips (spicy!)…

and a darling clementine…

I’m off to shower and pack.  See ya at home tomorrow !

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Eating On The Fly

I could not get out of bed this morning. I slept so deeply (for a change) that it was hard to wake up! Since I got going so late, I didn't have time to work out although I put on my exercise clothes in anticipation of fitting it in sometime during the day. I ate a quick, but filling, breakfast of Whole Wheat Pumpkin Blueberry Pancakes (from the freezer) and 2 hard boiled egg whites for 3 POINTS...


Then, the daughters and I headed to my friend's house to help with preparations for a big luau party she's having tomorrow. I set out making 60 hamburgers then moved on to chopping, chopping and more chopping lots of fruits and veggies. Next up was grilling all the veggies and making up the tray. I put some aside and made us grilled veggie sandwiches on an Arnold Sandwich Thin with some garlic hummus that she had in her fridge which is AWESOME! The garlic flavor went perfectly with the veggies. It was a great 4 POINT sammie eaten "counter style" (aka standing up!)...

I also snacked on some Goldfish while prepping some other dishes and helping to set up. Before we knew it, it was 5 p.m.! Party prep is brutal!

I headed home and found a wonderfully healthy dinner waiting. NOT!! The husband found a way to get pizza 2 nights in a row! He was so happy :) He ordered us a plain pizza and also, a panzarotti which is like an inside out pizza. Too tired to think of making something more healthy for myself, I indulged in a slice of the pizza and a piece of the panzarotti...

I made sure to eat some broccoli, at least...

I also chomped on some of big daughter's pizza crusts. I didn't feel very satisfied after that. I definitely could have eaten more. I guess my hunger kicked in. Thankfully, there was no more pizza left or I probably would have gone to town. Instead, I went right to dessert - a No Pudge Brownie with PB2 for 3 POINTS...

Never did get in that exercise, although I was on my feet the entire day from 10:30 - 5. I will make sure to get in C&K's 10 minute strength routine though, so it's not a total wash. Then, I will flop into my bed and fall into a coma deep slumber })

Have a great night!
