Happy Hump Day!

Happy Hump Day all. Sorry I didn't get to this yesterday. It has been busy at work and I'm trying to stay on top of eating well and working out with this chaos.

Yesterday I got up early and went to the gym for a lift session. I dread the lift sessions, but I love the sore feeling it gives me the next day or two after. I saw one of my work friends there too, so that was fun! After 45 mins of lifting, I was off to get ready for work.

I started my day off with a 90 calorie cereal bar before the gym and then granola and vanilla yogurt for my real breakfast post work out.

No morning snack yesterday. Lunch was carrots, pretzels and hummus and a Fit & Active Southwestern pocket. It was tasty!

My afternoon snack was an apple with laughing cow - swiss cheese wedge.

I had one of my last b'day dinners with Ally last night. We went to May Street Market for some wine, apps and desserts. I have been working out extra hard this week and was able to save some points to enjoy dinner to the max last night. We shared apps which included: salmon and tuna sashimi wraps (we didn't love this,) half order of fried green tomato (yummo) and mussels & frites (amazing amazing amazing!) We basically licked the bowl of the mussels, haha. It was awesome. We had 2 desserts too. The cracker jack ice cream and trio of cupcakes (they are famous for these.) Both were awesome. I would love to try dinner there some time soon. The tofu looked outstanding there!

I got up this am for a 60 minute cardio work out. I love bringing my ipad with me to the gym. I just read and the time flies by. I actually did 65 mins of cardio because of this. It started the day off wonderfully. I treated myself again with the reduced fat english muffin sandwich from Starbucks and a pumpkin spice latte. My order is classic for this drink. Hannie and I used to love going into bucks and saying this order. Tall pumpkin spice latte, 2 pump, skim, no whip. Haha. We thought we sounded cool...prob just the norm for the staff at bucks. Oh well!

I am going to be super hungry today. I can feel it. I am going to eat a few of the cheddar cheese rice crackers for my mid-morning snack and then go with soup and soy nuggets for my lunch. I may need to head to whole foods for some fruit. I'm craving watermelon or grapes.

I have dinner plans tonight with Camp Kate! I need to do some quick fall/winter shopping in the old hood before we grub. I am in a total shopping mood!

Have a good day!
