Roll Up Dinner

Hey guys! Well, the Sex and the City movie was awesome, as predicted! I had my issues with it, to be honest, which I won’t go into on the blog for spoiler purposes, but all in all – I really liked it. I’d see the girls in anything, though. I’ll be there for “Sex and the City VI: They Don’t Call it Men-opause For Nothing” and watch as Samantha laments losing her dentures on some poor, unsuspecting 20 yr old. Polident, Sam, Polident! Even Carol Brady knows that.

Anyway, during the movie I snacked on a Clif bar, Maple Nut flavor.

Snack was 240 calories, 42g carbs, 5g fat, and 10g fat.

Then, when I got home, I made a small dinner. You guys saw my fridge, so you know it’s slim pickings around here. Plus, as I said I’m working on making sure to use all the groceries before buying new ones. So I made some roll ups using the deli meats and cheese P picked up.

Kind of a random dinner, I know. But it was tasty and filling, so I’m cool with it. Dinner was 108 calories, 3g carbs, 5g fat, and 13g protein.

First CSA pickup is tomorrow, wahoo! Yawn, night guys!

Hey guys,

Well I knew it would happen, but I didn’t know it would happen this soon! I forgot my camera at home. I was so preoccupied with getting over to Ira and Martha’s to get my wallet, that I ran out the door without my camera. LUCKILY, the Bumble and Bumble salon is right near P’s office. So we’re going to meet up after my haircut so I can get my camera. So I will have it for my lunch post. Thanks Peter!

So for breakfast this morning, I had my first muesli-failure. :( Or semi-failure, really. I made Strawberry Banana Muesli Oatmeal:

  • 1/2c oatmeal
  • 1/4c hemp milk
  • 1/4c nonfat milk
  • 1/2c nonfat vanilla yogurt
  • cinnamon
  • vanilla
  • medium banana
  • 3 large strawberries

Serves 1.

I let this sit in the fridge overnight, but when I got to the office, I didn’t like the texture of the cold banana – it tasty grainy and weird. So I popped it in the microwave for 1.30 min – MUCH better. It looked something like this:

But with banana and no almond. Breakfast was 353 calories, 69g carbs, 7g fat, and 13g protein.

In a laundry fury last night, I accidentally threw in all my gym clothes. Grr. So I couldn’t go to the gym this AM, even though I really wanted to. Maybe if I hadn’t sent the laundry out, I would have made the gym, then I wouldn’t have forgotten my camera, and so on… ah well.

My B&B appt is at 1 PM, which cuts right into lunch. I’ll probably eat my snack on the way over there, and get lunch on my way back. My snack pre-haircut will be:

Snack will be 250 calories, 42g carbs, 6g fat, and 11g protein.

Have a great Monday!
