Another day, but not such a good one...
Breakfast: slept through it
Lunch: Got takeout,. brisket sandwich and fries with ice tea
Dinner: 2 celery stalks, 1 green apple, 1.1/4 c blueberries, half a red plumb, 1/3 c PB
Snack: 6 oreos and soy milk... oo AND a Pibb earlier at some point.
So not the best day ever. I am not really weighing myself officially except once a week, but i do hop on every day just out of curiousity and I was heavier today than yesterday. Might be a coincidence but I still felt a little bad.
On another note, I have been reading up about green smoothies as they seem like a good take to work option. I work 2nd shift at the PD which means I work 8 hours, but those 8 hours are from 3-11pm. Uusally when I work a normal day, aka morning and afternoon, I bring breakfast and lunch both with me to work, eat the first a 7am, then lunch around noon, then maybe a snack around 3 when I get off. But this new shift is a little off, I eat a noon, and not again until maybe 7 or 8pm, and then i still want a snack when i get off work. I think bringing a green smoothie might be a a good way to tide over until dinner.
Basics of a green smoothie: 3 handfuls of green veg like spinich, lettuce, celery - a couple handfuls of fruit like a whole banana, apple, pear, mango - add a little water to thin, or for a not completely fruit/veg option add some vanilla yogurt or (soy/almond/skim) milk.
Well, I think I am gonna try that, which mean a quick trip to the store for some more leafy greens as well as to my moms to borrow the blender, she doenst us it much anyway! :)
EDIT EDIT EDIT --------
Yea, so I made my smoothie and - well - not quite yum. Next time, more fruit needed. I'm not a massive sweet tooth and i love veg, but it was pretty bland and i think needed more sugar. So, 1/2 grn apple, 1/2 banana, big handful of spinich, 1 celery stalk, and a big swish of soy milk is not good enough. Maybe yogurt instead of soy milk?
Onb another note, Kate is bringing me dinner at work, not sure from where but I am sort of hoping for the oriental chix wrap I love so much! Ymmy!!!!
