Back on track! Yesterday I had almond milk over Ezekial cereal with fresh raspberries and blueberries for breakfast, salad with tuna for lunch and baked chicken thighs (couldn't light the grill - no gas?) with salad and sweet potato and some nuts for a snack! I did sneak a Pepsi, but I bought the 7.5 oz. ones to wean me off! :-) AMAZING (there's that word again!) what you can do when you have the time! I know I know, we all have the same 24 hours in a day; it's how we choose to use them!
Today I'm starting my day with a Green Smoothie in my Ninja Kitchen System 100 that I bought last Fall and am just now using. Fresh kale, organic baby romaine, fresh pineapple, blueberries and raspberries! I forgot to put the banana in so I ate that on the side! Really tastes gooood! Need some inspiration and recipes?

I'm determined to make this a habit (I have 40 days!) to keep it going! I even went to my studio and used my 14" high fanny-lifter step stool (from The Firm) for some exercises on Monday afternoon. Going to work out 3 days a week - don't really need extreme 7 day workouts in my life! :-)
Fitness was always my life B.C. (Before Computers) ~ teaching P.E., teaching aerobics, Personal Training, Z-Heath. So glad to have the time to get back into it!

Mid-day snack as I rearranged furniture ( a past-time of mine!) was cantaloupe, organic grapes, fresh mozzarella cheese and pitted Kalamata olives. Don't forget to drink plenty of water! I drink filters water WITH my food, but when I drink a lot of water during the day I lean toward Poland Springs, Fuji or Evian so that I get the minerals from them.
Late lunch - Salad with organic greens, petite carrots, Roma tomatoes, artichokes, roasted red peppers, black olives, Kalamata olives, cucumbers and Paul Newman Lite Northern Italian dressing. I'm not a big fan of Lite dressings, but they didn't have the Northern Italian in the regular kind and the sugar content was still pretty low. Topped it off with a leftover chicken thigh from last night's dinner and added a slice of Rye bread with real butter to complement the meal.
Left over Ginger & Garlic marinated steak tips with fresh green beans for dinner. it was a good, good, day!
I think I'll try this Raspberry-Watermelon Smoothie tomorrow.
