Busy Bee

Gah! Where has this day gone!?! I’ve been up since 7:00 and running around non-stop ever since! Mal and I are hosting a wine tasting tonight, so we spent much of morning scouring our apartment from top to bottom. (We let it get pretty messy this week! ) We still have quite a bit to do before our guests arrive in a few hours, so let’s whiz through my eats for the day! 

I started my morning with a glass of water, grapes, and blogging. I wrote some “catch-up” posts before my hubby got out of bed. 

After about an hour, I finally got hungry. I made myself a bowl of oats with wheat bran, ground flaxseed meal, pumpkin seeds, pecans, and Barney Butter. I also had a glass of iced coffee with chocolate soy milk and agave nectar. 

Mid-morning, Mal made a run to Dunkin’ Donuts. He grabbed me an unsweetened iced tea with lemon. I practically chugged it down– I was so thirsty this morning! 

Around noon, Mal and I headed to the Y for a workout. I fueled my workout with half of a whole wheat pita with pecan butter. At the Y, I used the elliptical for 30 minutes, biked for 20 minutes, and strength trained for another 20. My hip is still a mess, so I’ve been taking it easy. Meh. 

After the gym, I threw together a quick salad with lots of veggies, canned tuna, goat cheese, and balsamic vinegar. 

The healthy dose of protein on this salad was very satisfying! 

For a sweet treat, I ate another half of pita with pecan butter and chocolate chips. Delish! 

Ok, I’m off to get ready for our wine tasting! We still need to go grocery shopping! Happy Saturday!!!
