May Day
Happy May! Spring has finally sprung! Yippee!
Breakfast today was an oat bran-bulgar blend with almonds and shredded coconut.
Oooh, how I love coconut! I topped my breakfast with 2 tablespoons.
Kiwi slices (with a little skin) accompanied my bowl of mushy grains.
From above…
When I finished eating breakfast, I was STILL hungry, but I figured my “fullness” just needed some time to set in. However, around 10:15, my stomach started growling! I have no idea how since I ate a big dinner last night and a hearty breakfast this morning– I guess sometimes you just need more fuel! I listened to my body, and dug into my lunch around 10:45.
My early lunch started with green pepper slices and Rotel dip.
Peppers and Rotel held me over for awhile, but around 11:45, I wanted more food!
The rest of my lunch included a garden salad with blue cheese crumbles…
and a pita filled with peanut butter and chopped dates.
I’m relatively satisfied now, but still feel like I could eat. I’m going to make some mint tea, and try to hold off until snack time this afternoon.
I hope everyone is enjoying May as much as I am!

Happy May Day!
What a green lunch! I love the color of kiwi
And oh I definitely know that feeling when your body just keeps asking for more food–I usually end up making the worst choices, but you seem to be doing great at choosing healthy foods!

That kiwi is SO Green! Gorgeous! Oh and I adore coconut especially with almonds… You should try adding a few drops of both coconut and almond extracts (or flavors if you don’t like the alcohol… I prefer the flavors anyway!) with your shredded coconut! OMG HEAVEN! Have a fabbbulous thursday! Tomorrow’s Friday! YIPPEEEE!
