Week 2 – Day 1

Breakfast

Ezekiel English muffins with organic pumpkin seed butter & slivered almonds and clementines.

Lunch

Chicken and avacado wrap on SMART tortilla with tabbouleh, carrots, celery and hummus.

Dinner

Pork stirfry with celery, mushrooms, onions, carrots, peas and sesame seeds.
I was really impressed with the taste of the pumpkin seed butter. I was looking for something with some protein to use in the morning and found myself in the health food section at the SuperStore. I’m not a fan of peanut butter so this was a good alternative. I also ended up finding the Ezekiel products so thought I’d give them a go and really liked the English muffins as well.

A pretty quiet day over all. My energy was severely lacking today and as a result I was pretty sleepy most of the day. I think I did more yawning than anything. Just tried to catch up on things around the house like laundry and of course most of my day is spent taking care of the boy. Hubby had our winter tires put on today (you can thank me later for rescheduling winter’s official start until after the New Year) and finally late afternoon I decided I needed a nap as much as the boy so took him upstairs to our bed in hopes he’d fall asleep. After a little playing he did finally zonk out so so did I. Just in case you are wondering, 45 minutes is not nearly long enough for a nap. I woke up still yawning…hehe.

Hubby was off from his second job this evening so he made me supper (he’s a fantastic cook but with working so often I don’t get many of his meals anymore) and so it was a great treat to have some yummy pork stirfry for dinner. We had anticipated watching a movie this evening but by the time the boy decided to go to bed (9:00pm) it was too late as hubby gets up for work at 4:00am. We’ve rescheduled for tomorrow evening. I contemplated the gym again but having gone three days in a row my body needed a break and is likely why I’m so sleepy. Hubby suggested I work on trying to get the blog up and running as it has been on my to do list for over a week so that’s exactly what I did!

    Oh look at you and your blog! I never realized that it was live! I love it! Congrats on the first week loss. I understand your disappointment. By the looks of things you are poised for a BIG Week 2 loss!

    I just bought the pumpkin butter tonight after Zumba! I can’t eat peanut butter as I have a nut allergy so I decided to give this stuff a go! Can’t wait to try it out! :)

    Had a great time tonight! :)
