Wacky Wednesday

For all you Biggest Loser fans out there…what did you think of last night’s show?! I gotta tell ya, I’ll be extremely disappointed if Miss Vicky wins this. Especially seeing that I totally think that her and her husband are in this for the $$ alone. I highly doubt she will maintain an active lifestyle after the show! Okay, enough of that!!

I traded my oats this morning for a bowl of Bob’s Red Mill 10 grain cereal. I love this as a switch up!


-1 cup water
-1/3 cup 10 grain cereal
-1/3 cup pumpkin puree
-trail mix
-cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice



Work this morning was 100% insane!! So much so that I really have nothing to say about my morning except, “Where did it go???” I had a fuzzy head by 11am and realized it was due to hunger! I scavenged around, but all I could find to eat that was compatible with working was a handful of sliced veggies that I pilfered from the staff kitchen!!!


I didn’t end up eating the cucumber because it was slimy…..eewww!!!

My sweet end/snack last night was plain yogurt with pumpkin granola and blueberry sauce.


I was excited about lunch time, though, because Wednesday is Wii day!! I got about 35 mins in on my Wii Fit. I did a variety of yoga, strength, balance and aerobics stuff. I unlocked a new phase in the boxing segment and boy, did those routines screw me up! I’ve learned that I’m not near as coordinated as I thought! It’s still loads of fun, though!!

Lunch tasted great today but wasn’t very enjoyable because I was basically on the run with our payrolls jumping from one computer to another. I shoved spoonfuls into my yapper as I walked past my desk!


Can you guess what that is? Bet you aren’t surprised to see Kasha pilaf, veggies and haddock, are you?! I also snacked on these delicious grapes through out the afternoon.


For dinner tonight I made Mara’s Chicken dinner


This recipe was so easy that it's ridiculous! I served it up with some brown rice as a side.


Everybody LOVED it! Thanks for a great, easy-peasy dinner recipe, Mara!

I had some pumpkin in the fridge that needed to be used up so I tried out this recipe from Hungry Girl for a pumpkin cranberry loaf while I was waiting for supper to be done. This recipe was really easy and only took maybe 10 minutes to throw together!



I made a few changes out of necessity; 1/4 cup sugar instead of the Splenda (I don't like "fake" sugars and I'm low on agave), 1/2 cup of egg whites as I'm out of egg beaters and a 1/4 cup trail mix for the dried cranberries. I just took it out of the oven 10 minutes ago so I can't give a review yet because it's still too hot to cut! I will be eating a piece for a snack later, so I'll be sure to tell you all about it tomorrow!

My plans for this evening include organizing for the morning, watching SYTYCD Canada, catching up on some blog reading and hitting the hay a little earlier than I have been.

Bye for now!!
