I started the day with about a 3.5 mile run in 31 minutes at a nearby park. I’m hoping my longer run Saturday will go more smoothly since I ran twice this week.
Breakfast was a french vanilla yogurt and Fiber One Original Bran Cereal parfait. A little boring but the crunch from the fiber one is delish.
I wasn’t feeling so hot after breakfast so I went to lay down. Well I woke up around 11:30 feeling much better. Guess I needed a little extra rest. I was hungry when I woke up so around 12 I made myself some lunch. I had a whole wheat pita with 2 servings of Sonny & Joe’s Just Hummus, and an apple cut up with some caramel sauce. This Just Hummus is really good!
After lunch I caught up on a few episodes of the Bachelorette and set up the electricity and gas at the new apartment. Then I headed to the coffee shop for a chat with the woman I nannyed for last summer. Mary is a fantastic woman and I’m really glad we’ve kept in touch. She told me her daughter Maddy was sad that her mom was going to meet me and that she couldn’t come. Definitely made me feel good. I got to see some pictures and I updated Mary on my summer plans. I had a pomegranate iced tea with two natural sugars while we talked.
At about 5 my sister and her friend met me and we left and drove to the mall for a little retail therapy! I ate a Caramel Nut Brownie Luna Bar on the way to the mall. We shopped for a few hours, then Tyler met us at the TGI Friday’s there for dinner. Unfortunately, about 15 minutes after we sat down, the power went out to the ENTIRE MALL! We paid for the beer Tyler had ordered and drank, then left very disappointed and still very hungry. A lot of the places near the mall didn’t have power either so we settled on Red Robin. I got the Gardenburger on a whole wheat bun with lettuce, tomato, and ketchup. It was good, not great. I also ate 2 slices of cantaloupe and of course some of the endless fries with ketchup. I didn’t leave feeling ill, which I’ll definitely attribute to not eating my weight in fries and getting the Gardenburger and not a hunk of beef.
After dinner I drove Diana and her friend back to our beach house and then drove home. It was late, like 11:30, so after a quick email check, Tyler and I hit the sack.
This morning I had some more yogurt for breakfast, this time with 1 serving of wheat germ and half a serving of Kashi Heart to Heart.
I have a few errands to run, then I’m driving out to the beach house and possibly going to the beach with my sister and her friend. I’ve also got a few things to get ready for the Bridal Shower tomorrow for my brother’s fiance Ethanie. Food Should Taste Good was so kind as to send us some chips for the shower for everyone to review! So look forward to seeing those with some yummy dips and hearing all about what they taste like! I can’t wait!
TGIF Friends!
