Happy Monday !!!! I started back into my exercise today, wooohooooo! Also, when you come off a juice fast (especially a 24 day one!), you need to start with light foods and small portions. Well, I got the light food right but my portions have been bigger than they should of been on Saturday and Sunday. I don’t want to stretch my stomach back out so I was being careful with watching my portions today.
I had the same small portion snack pre and post-workout! Some oatmeal, fruit and a little yogurt. I got a nice little bath afterwards then got ready to get Katie up. I snacked on some fruit later in the morning while I finished reading my chapter for college this week until finally lunch time rolled around for both of us! She had an egg sandwich. I had a small salad with my supplement/psyllium husk/flaxseed/unsweetened almond milk shake!
Katie got to play on the porch for just a bit longer then went down for her nap. She actually didn’t give me any trouble… thank goodness. I have felt good all day! I didn’t take a nap this morning and was a little tired but in a diff way, if that makes sense?! I figured I would take a nap though while Katie was down and wound up sleeping for 2 HOURS! Wowie. Eventually got up and Katie too. I had turned the A/C back on so I didn’t let her back out on the porch but thankfully she didn’t make a fuss and just played with her toys. It was past time for Brad to come home and I was wondering where he was?!! He usually comes home around 5:40-6pm but It was like 6:15 and he finally came home! He had taken a little trip afterwards… hehe and GOT A SURPRISE for meeeeeeee!!
My FAVORITE Kombucha drink and a key lime pie Larabar! Awwww. That was so sweet and thoughtful of him!!! He said he might surprise me one day! Heh. I love him bunchies. I told him we needed to go back out again though, lol. I fixed Katie’s dinner then got her situated while I also started on my salad dinner!! It was a big salad so I only ate half and saved the rest for lunch tomorrow.
We headed out to the store to pick up pull-ups, swim pull-ups and a ring floatie for Katie, a big container of BLUEBERRIES for me, green leaf lettuce, romaine lettuce, Brad got some bread for him + Katie, brown rice & imitation crab meat (since Brad wants to make homemade sushi), WATERMELON and a mango for Brad. Once we came home, I fixed my dessert oatmeal/yogurt mess then put it in the freezer for just a little bit then started to munch on it.
Next up, while still eating on my dessert, I watched Brad cut up our juicy, fresh, red watermelon!!!!! I took sample bites… nomnomnom. Now we have a whole fridge of awesomeness to snack on for the rest of the week!
I might of had another small bowl of it not long ago… heh. OH and Brad had a veggie souffle (sp?) for dinner that he picked up when he went to Whole Foods today and I got a few bites of it. IT WAS SO GOOD. We will have to try more of their souffles.
I think I’ll just pitch a tent and live in the center of Whole Foods. I love my healthy foooooooods!!! Well, I’m not that sleepy so I’m gonna stay up a bit longer to get some other things accomplished since the Internet has been dragging all day long and I didn’t get to do various things I had planned to so off I go! It’s been a good day. Thankful for all my blessings.
