Can It Be The End?

I sitting here in disbelief that the weekend is already over. Where did it go? I can’t believe that in 12 short hours I’ll be back at my desk. Jeez….

I got a little funky with my breakfast this morning. I’ve seen the addition of pretzels and chocolate to oats on a few blogs so I decided to give it a whirl;

• 1 cup water
• 1/3 cup oat bran
• 1 tbsp carob powder
• walnut & pretzel pieces

I was pretty jazzed to try this but was let down by the fact that the pretzels got soggy asap. Ewww. I picked around said mushiness and the rest of the bowl was great.

I behaved myself with the cookie plate out at the farm this morning. I promised myself 2…not 4 like last week…and stuck to my guns. I even remembered to take a picture of the variety this week!

Really, they’re all my favourite, but I chose a maple & a chocolate striped one. Maybe I’ll go for the other 2 next time!

We didn’t get home until shortly after 1pm and I was good and ready for some lunch by then. I polished off a good portion of my NF plain Chobani with a 1/2 cup of TJ’s blueberry muesli and extra fresh blueberries;

Hit. The. Spot!

I read my book for an hour while I let my lunch settle and then I hopped on the treadmill to pump out one of Gina’s (Fitnessista) killer treadmill workouts. It was an hour long, interval one and kicked my bootie! I was sure to do 5 minutes of really good stretching to try to eliminate any soreness in the morning.

I had just enough time to clean up before I had to get started on dinner. I had pulled out a pork tenderloin and once again turned to my Clean Eating magazine for inspiration. Here’s what I picked;

This was super easy and delicious! I didn’t make the potatoes because I have none. Instead, I paired the meat up with baked beans and steamed veggies. Again, here is what the meal looked like in the magazine;

And my version;

Another winner! I didn’t have a sweet end because I knew there would be cookies at Mom’s. Again, I only ate 2. MUCH better than the 7 or so from last Sunday!

I just finished snacking on 3 mini blueberry muffins spread with a little macadamia nut butter. No picture because the one I took looked awful! I plan on hitting the hay soon tonight because I never seem to sleep well on Sunday night’s. On that note….

Bye for now!!
