Unforunately, I have yet to get the gingerbread house pictures from the other night, so you’ll have to wait and see the final product. Let’s just say, it ended up a bit of a disaster ๐
I’ve been living on a sugar high these past few days. In addition to this candy filled night, I’ve also been picking at pieces of our house throughout the weekend (aka lots of candy & frosting), and enjoyed this breakfast Saturday morning.
Vans whole wheat waffles topped with sunbutter, cream cheese, syrup & granola (love crunch on my waffles). Scrambled egg whites + 1 egg & ketchup (necessity).
But wait – my roommate & her boyfriend came home with donuts to share! I never have donuts (just don’t ever get the opportunity!), so I cut a few small bites of the cinnamon roll, glazed one, and bear claw – but honestly they were extremely dry and blah.
But this cinnamon roll they made was quite the opposite! Helped myself to half of one ๐
Fueld my gym trip quite nicely where I completed
-
4 mile dreadmill run ranging from 6 – 7.5 mph. Not so much intervals, just decided to take it realitvely easy and watch Fool’s Gold on TV
-
25 minutes upper body weights
After this, I felt a bit too lazy for whittling my middle. Whoops!
Unpictured eats throughout the day, then chowed down my salad for dinner in 5 minutes pre-work.
Rando mix of:
-
Scrambled eggs
-
2 buffalo chicken meatballs
-
Zucchini
-
Cranberry sauce
-
Spinach hommus
-
Salsa
-
Annie’s raspberry dressing
-
Spinach
But it worked!
Work included trail mix (with M&M’s of course).
Today I knew I needed to finally get down to some studying.
First up – breakkie.
-
A bit of Voskos plain yogurt (review coming soon)
-
Blueberry Oikos (almost a full container)
-
Kashi Heart to Heart
-
Nature’s Path mesa sunrise
-
TJ’s pumpkin granola
-
Banana slices
-
Sunbutter & pumpkin butter
Yumma! That TJ’s pumpkin granola is sooooo good guys. I’m picky with my granolas, but this stuff is the perfect granola taste to me ๐ Just have to take it easy, since it’s pretty sweet and I know granola’s pretty high in sugar!
Next up – gym. Yeah, so the gym didn’t happen. As I tweeted about, there was no motivation whatsoever. Even though I should take advantage of free parking on campus (weekend!) and maybe take a weekday off of the gym. Didn’t happen.
I’m pretty sure my butt is imprinted into this couch permanently. I tried to study, I really did! But this take home final is going to take me 4x as long as a normal final…and I just gave up! Resorted to watching Falalala Lifetime instead ๐
Mid-afternoon, I did get a bit cold hungry and decided on hot butternut squash oatmeal.
Topped with:
-
A different mix of cereals
-
Frosting covered graham crackers (from our house!)
-
Pumpkin cream cheese
-
Sunbutter
Warmed me right up!
I eventually gave up with my take home final, and turned to ice cream. Which kind of defeats the purpose of hot oats. But it’s great distraction, let me tell you.
I’ll admit it – I went ice cream crazy. Ice cream is my biggest weakness. Some people have no control over certain foods, and for me it’s ice cream. So times this bowl by 2 4. In all fairness, it’s a baby bowl. And it ended up being part of my dinner.
Due to late oats, and the ice cream extravaganza, I never really got hungry, but I knew I needed something more satisfying around 8:30. A light egg & veggie scramble dinner did the trick.
