WHEW. This week at work was crazy. I had no time to record my food. I tried to be conscientious about what I ate and - for the most part - I think I did well. I do not have the strength to go back and try to remember what I ate each day, so I'll carry on from today.

Breakfast:

Coffee, 1 cup oatmeal with 2T craisins, 2t brown sugar, chopped apple

Lunch:

PBJ - Two slices whole wheat bread with 2T crunchy Jif and 2T apricot jelly. SO GOOD after my run. Plus, I've learned to eat protein after a long workout or else I feel gross later. 2 oz hummus and a bunch of baby carrots.

Snack:

Introduced the girls to shamrock shakes (small) at McDonalds. I guess I could make them at home, but I'm not going to get all crazy about a once or twice per year treat.

Dinner:

2 cups of black bean and lentil soup. 1 piece of English muffin bread with 0.5 oz cheese melted on top. A salad with red pepper, cucumbers, and 2T balsamic vinaigrette.

Naked chicken burrito at Qdoba. I had a coupon! I got brown rice, black beans, grilled veggies, and pico sauce.

4 samples of the salted caramel cookie bars I made for work tomorrow. Had to make sure they tasted okay!

Dinner:

Lightened up shrimp scampi and 2 pieces of garlic bread. I should have had a salad, but A worked late, so I feel like I deserve a medal for simply cooking dinner when it's only me and the kids.
