No matter the plan... we all Blog to Lose!

Weak start to the day but going for the strong finish!

I woke up and add a less than stellar breakfast. My roommate made amish friendship bread and it is delicious. I had a piece for breakfast. (estimating 300 calories???). I also had a soy latte with it (though to help compensate I left out the shot of peppermint I like and got an iced....120 calories and keeps me full for awhile). My snack was a pita with hummus. Not sure of the calories since it wasn't on the package. Lunch was sushi (4 pieces of nigiri- fish with bit of rice- and a california roll- no cream cheese).

It hasn't been the strongest day so far, but I should be fine since I'm prepared for a nice healthy dinner. I'm making lentils in the crockpot (veggies, lentil, spices, and chicken broth). I'm going to pair it with a salad and RF crescent rolls (90 cal. each).

What I'm most proud of though is being proactive with breakfast this week. I picked up a lot more frozen fruit to mix into smoothies. I weighed out portions for smoothies for 3 days and marked each on top. One of my problems is that my immersion blender isn't strong enough to chop up frozen food, but it really is FAR more convenient then messing with getting out the blender each morning. I can go ahead and move a container into the fridge the night before and it will thaw enough by morning to just dump into the glass. Voila! Breakfast! I may even try the trick of putting spinach into a smoothie this week (we'll see!)

That's all for today, lots of work to get done. Just wanted to check in since it keeps me on track! :-)

Kudos for planning out your breakfast smoothies ahead! To me, planning is key! Thanks for the reminder I need to DO it, instead of reading how everyone else is planning! LOL
