Miss Mags Turns 2!

Happy Monday! I had such a wonderful weekend. The birthday celebration on Friday was a blast at Tango Sur! We had about 20 people stop by to celebrate. We flew to KS bright and early on Saturday and spent the day with my family. It was a quick trip but so many memories were made. I am so happy we were able to celebrate Maggie turning 2!! I miss her already. I am truly blessed to have such a wonderful family and miss them tons. We got back yesterday around 5:30 and spent the night cleaning up and getting ready for the week. I am ready to get back on track. This weekend was go go go and I am ready to get back on a work out routine and eat some healthy meals!

Here are some food details from the weekend. At dinner on Friday, CP and I shared mostly everything. We split a cheese and spinach empanada (so good!) a roll, the El Filet entree which is 2 steaks. I ordered asparagus and a plain sweet potato. I also probably had way to much wine, but it happens. We made a quick stop at Blue Bayou before heading home to get ready for a quick 5 hours of sleep.

On Saturday, I split a half a bagel at O'Hare. I also snacked on some trail mix once we landed in KS. My brother ordered so much pizza for lunch and I went with 2 pieces of veggie with half a breadstick. Unfortunately I didn't have any of the garlic butter, but that by far makes pizza so much better. There were snacks around all day. I did my best to stick to the healthy options. There were dips, veggies, chips, ice cream cake, lots of cupcakes, salads, bbq, etc. I only had a couple of bites of Monster's ice cream cake, but it was from DQ and top notch! Dinner I had a hot dog, veggies and some of Melinda's famous mac and cheese. It was so good! Probably not healthy, but that is why portion control is important.

I was not feeling so hot when I went to bed b/c of the random food I ate, but I took it easy on Sunday which helped the tum a bit.

Melinda made a huge breakfast spread. I had some scrambled eggs, grapes and one pancake. It was delish. For lunch I had a multigrain bagel from Great American Bagel. I probably had enough bagels this weekend. I need a good break from them... I snacked on some baked lays when I got home and then made a salad for dinner.

You know when you aren't even hungry, you just know you should eat? That's how I felt all weekend. I plan on focusing this week on making good decisions and working out. I also need to be drinking more water which I plan to do.

My meal plan for the day:
Egg white sandwich - 2 slices of 45 calorie bread with egg whites and low fat pepperjack cheese. 5 points
1/3 cup granola for a snack - 2 or 3. I need groceries!
Lean Cuisine Chicken Philly Flatbread - 7 points, 100 calorie baked cheetos - 2, apple with laughing cow - 3, Total - 12
Snack - 100 calorie snack? - 2 points
Dinner - WW lasagna

I need to start counting my points again. I also hit the grocery store at lunch so I have some snacks and soup for the week. I also picked up more yogurt and granola for breakfast. That will help me go to the gym in the am.

I have some lunch and dinner plans with friends this week and I am going to work on portion control. I also plan on making good decisions on what to eat at each restaurant.

Have a good monday!
