Hi guys!\u00a0 Last night Scott and I watched some TV and I drowned my sorrows in these.<\/p>\n

\"robe

robe action <\/p><\/div>\n

\"Chips

Chips <\/p><\/div>\n

Red wine (2 glasses) and some baked chips.\u00a0 I had 5 dark chocolate chips and realized that isn’t what I wanted, I needed some salty crispy crunch action.\u00a0 Oh yeah!\u00a0 Total indulgence and it was very yummy.\u00a0 Salty goodness, mmmm.\u00a0 Then I went to bed and slept decent enough.\u00a0 I got up going on 8am and took care of the Rocks.\u00a0 It was amazingly warm out for that early in the morning.\u00a0 I changed clothes and headed out for a run sans hoodie and toboggan.\u00a0 Crazy!<\/p>\n

\"<3\"

<3<\/p><\/div>\n

I wore a knee brace for my run this morning.\u00a0 I have one of those braces that have the velco straps on the top and bottom.\u00a0 It’s from when I dislocated my knee three years ago.\u00a0 So I wore that and while it was a bit cumbersome it did seem to help.\u00a0 I only did 3.5 miles at a very slow pace. I didn’t want to push myself but I very much needed to get a run in.\u00a0 My body was craving the run and so was my mental health.\u00a0 Plus today is beautiful and I needed to be outside!<\/p>\n

I came home and put my robe on, woke up Scott, and headed downstairs for breakfast.<\/p>\n

\"Berrylicious\"

Berrylicious<\/p><\/div>\n

More berry oatbran today!\u00a0 This time I added a pinch of brown sugar to help offset the tartness of the berries.\u00a0 There’s raspberries and blueberries in the oatbran.\u00a0 Cranberries on top and some blueberry granola.\u00a0 Yummy!\u00a0 And coffee which was fantastic this morning.\u00a0 I only had one mug of it though.<\/p>\n

I called to set up an appointment with the doctor and I got in today!\u00a0 Wheee!\u00a0 You can see what the doctor said over here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The doctor appointment took a while so by the time we were eating lunch it was after 3pm.\u00a0 I did have 1\/2 a Luna cookie and 3 pieces of cantaloupe before the app though because I was hungry.\u00a0 I wanted veggies and veggies today for lunch.\u00a0 Since it was so late, I knew this was going to be our lunch\/dinner as well.\u00a0 We had an event later in the evening and I wasn’t sure what the menu was going to be, so like a good food blogger, I got in all my veggies and fruits beforehand.\u00a0 Also to keep me full so that I wouldn’t be tempted to overeat at the event.<\/p>\n

\"lunchie

lunchie <\/p><\/div>\n

Lunch was some leftover lentil taco mix on top of some mixed greens.\u00a0 A little cheddar and some guac as well.\u00a0 I also had 3 FoodShouldTasteGood Jalapeno chips with a small amount of guac on it.\u00a0 Fabbo lunch!<\/p>\n

Afterwards, I made us some smoothies.<\/p>\n

    \n
  • 1.5C OJ<\/li>\n
  • 1.5C Unsweetened cranberry juice<\/li>\n
  • A bunch of kale (stemmed)<\/li>\n
  • 1 kiwi<\/li>\n
  • 1 banana<\/li>\n
  • Cantaloupe<\/li>\n
  • Frozen pineapple<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    So good and totally filling!\u00a0 This lunch\/dinner did the trick and kept us full.\u00a0 Apparently I forgot to take a pic of it! Doh!\u00a0 Look to yesterday’s smoothie, same thing. :)<\/p>\n

    The event was so fun and awesome!\u00a0 Full review of it will be up tomorrow.\u00a0 Here’s a preview of what I ate though:<\/p>\n

    Appetizers:<\/p>\n

    \"nummy\"

    nummy<\/p><\/div>\n

      \n
    • Grilled stuffed portabella mushroom with mozeralla<\/li>\n
    • Smoked trout on cucumber<\/li>\n
    • Stilton tart with cranberry chunty (my fave) (I had two)<\/li>\n
    • Braised pork on homemade tortilla<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Dessert:<\/p>\n

      \"ice

      ice cream <\/p><\/div>\n

      Toasted sesame ice cream with a cookie thing.\u00a0 The ice cream was awesome and I didn’t eat the cookie, I gave that to Scott.\u00a0 You know I’m not a big sweets person.\u00a0 I also only had a bite of the mushroom and passed that on to Scott as well as I didn’t care for it too much.<\/p>\n

      Now I’m off to hit the couch!\u00a0 See you guys tomorrow!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
