Brrrrr…. I’m freezing just looking at this! |
As I blog from my couch and in front of the fire and under a blanket, I can’t say that I’m really that cold. And, mostly, I’m just proud of myself… which makes you warm even in the coldest moments!
You wanna know why?? I’ve had one of the healthiest weeks I’ve had in a long time!
To start with…. this week, I’ve been SUPER impressed with my eating and there’s even been some moving. I’ve been completely on track this week. No stepping outside of the boundaries, no extra snacks and way under my calorie limit (because of exercise).
A NEW SANDWICH
I’ve always loved Great Harvest Bread Company. I usually go there for cookies for my clients, and always used to get that free slice of bread they offer you when you buy something.
JC Swedish Meatballs… Not my fave, but I ate it. Look at that delish bottle of water! |
Now you might notice that there’s a telltale M on that water bottle above… well, that’s because there’s nothing better with Swedish Meatballs than two side salads with a packet of Low Fat Italian Dressing from Mickey D’s. Seriously good.
A CRAZY-GOOD SNACK
I went to TJ Maxx when I was in Twin Falls to get my Christmas shopping moving along. I do a bit of my shopping on the road, because it’s just necessary. Unfortunately, I didn’t find what I was looking for at TJ’s, but I did find a sweater for myself (of course). When I was checking out, I realized that I was famished. My stomach was SCREAMING. There’s all sorts of snacks at the checkout now at TJ Maxx. And, I just happened to look to see if they had anything healthy. Ohhhhh, they did!
Hello, Sensible Foods! I found a bag of their Cherry Berry Crunch Dried Snacks at the checkout and snatched it up immediately! Freeze dried apples, cherries, blueberries, and strawberries?? Um, yes please!
The packaging said that it had ONLY 84 Calories. The perfect snack! It also was the perfect pre-dinner snack and gave me just enough so that I could workout before dinner – – SUCCESS!
Since then, I’ve used their website to find out where else to buy them – – because I need to have MORE. I found some in Boise, and tried the sweet corn flavor, too. It’s delish at 70 calories!
Um, I think we should! I’ve posted before that I take gym clothes on trips, but I never wear them. How about this week I wore them, and even had to re-wear a pair (gross, I know… but I worked out!!!)
