Booty Dance

Hey guys!  Just dropping in for a quick hello before heading out to little daughter’s dance recital.

I was so pleased with my food intake yesterday.  Meal planning has really helped me this week and the “blt’s” are diminishing greatly which makes me happy. I feel more in control that way!

I started off the day with press (1/2 caf – wha????!)…

and I didn’t even bite anyone’s head off later :)

Then, I got a Booty Call!  Okay, that was not funny.  And neither is Jessica and her 10 Minute  Solution Ultimate Boot Camp.  I did 30 minutes, including one of the “ultimates” that I was scared of!  It was  a great workout!

I dug into breakfast right after that – plain nonfat greek yogurt topped with Fruit Crisp

Lunch was leftover organic vegetarian chili over brown rice, topped with some salsa and a wimpy avocado…

Making a batch of brown rice and having it ready in the fridge has been a lifesaver this week!

I needed a snack later, so I opted for something more substantial that just fruit or veggie.  A string cheese, Applegate Farms Herbed Roasted Turkey and a few Mary’s Gone Crackers were right on…

In the afternoon, I spent some time in the kitchen making dishes for the post-recital luncheon at our house.  Sounds fancy, huh?  We invited the Grandparents to come back to the house after the recital  to eat a delicious AND healthy lunch.  They can’t wait ;)

Well, it was Friday night, so you know that calls for pizza around here.  I decided not to indulge and went with a grilled chicken burger topped with asiago cheese and tomato basil hummus dip…

a grape tomato salad…

and watermelon for dessert…

Okay, I’m off to listen to the tippy-tapping of little feet.  And the big yapping out of little mouths :D

Enjoy your day, everyone!

Yummy ! Enjoy the recital . And just for future info, cooked rice can also be frozen. It reheats easily in the microwave or steamer

Eats look great! :) I love the Trader Joe’s frozen brown rice to make real fast. I know eventually when I have a grown up fridge/freezer I will be able to make it and freeze it myself, but until then… lol

Meal planning is SO key. I’m generally good mon-wed, then by thurs my motivation wanes and I start looking for quick fixes. So I need a backup meal plan next. lol.

I love the brown rice idea. It really helps me to have something for ME that is healthy in the fridge when I start rummaging around for lunch. I can only eat mac’n'cheese so many days before I start gaining weight. ;) Thanks for your tips!
