The weekend is in sight…

I can’t believe today is already almost over, this week is flying by! And the fact that a week from now it’ll be April is nuts! 2009 sure is moving quickly! Anyone else think this year is going fast?
For breakfast today my old love is back. Chobani! Oh how I’ve missed my Chobani, especially my vanilla. I had that with a peak protein granola sprinkled on top.
This is a heavenly combination!
Lunch today was a pb and banana sandwich with some green grapes on the side.
Some of my grapes were very tart, I didn’t enjoy those few, but the rest were perfectly sweet!
Around 3 I was ready to gnaw my arm off, I didn’t think I had any snacks with me because I really haven’t been snacking in the afternoons. I was about to hit up the vending machine when I remembered that I did, in fact, have a snack courtesy of Missy. She sweetly handed out some clif z bars on Sunday at the brunch, and I luckily still had it in my bag. So thank you so much Missy for keeping me away from the vending machine!
Once I got home from work I was once again hungry, I don’t know what is with my appetite today. I knew exactly what I wanted I was inspired by this meal. I had some meatless meatballs and was craving tacos so I made a taco wrap. I used 4 meatless meatballs broken up and cooked in taco seasoning, romaine lettuce, spinach, mexican cheese blend, and salsa, on whole wheat tortilla.
This was so good!
After resting and watching some of last night’s Biggest Loser it was time to go to the gym. I did strength training first and then jumped on the treadmill, I didn’t feel like running today so I walked at a steep incline for a while. According to my HRM my stats are:
- 450 calories burned
- Avg HR 153
- Max HR 181
Have I said how much I love this HRM already? One thing I did notice on the treadmill is since they’ve got Polar HRM built in my stats show up on not only my treadmill but the one next to me. I don’t know if that’s normal or not.
Once returning back home I snacked on 2 Tagalongs.
Last year when I got my 2 boxes of Tagalongs they were gone in about a week, I’ve had these for a week now and this is my second helping of them. Just goes to show me how much I’ve improved since the beginning of the year.
Well lovelies I’m off to bed, I hope you all have a great night!

I agree that 2009 is flying by! I keep thinking that in a couple of months we will already be halfway through the year, crazy!
My mom came to visit this last weekend and brought us some Girl Scout cookies…Oh how I love them, especially the samoas (sp?) They are really good with some warm tea!

Scrumptious eats – I love that peak protein granola, but now I can’t seem to find it in the local grocery store anymore!

I’ve noticed especially lately (as in, these past couple of weeks) how time seems to be flying by! It’s crazy that it’s already April next week, crazy and exciting all at once. I cannot wait for warmer weather! It’s getting better and better here but there’s still snow on the ground and pretty chilly winds. Thankfully, the sun is out almost every day now though. Phew! But I want to be able to sit on the porch and eat my breakfast in the sun! 🙂 Good for you about the tagalongs. It’s important to acknowledge things like that and give yourself a pat on the back! 🙂

Yay for cookie moderation!
Your breakfast looks heavenly! Seriously- what a combo! I’d love some fresh sliced strawberries and flax to make it even better!

Oh wow, your Mexican dinner sound fabulous. I’m totally craving Mexican now, which is weird, because I kinda hate that kind!
Way to make those cookies last 🙂

Kate | March 26, 2009 at 4:22 pm
thank you so much!!! That granola looks amazing. I usually tend to steer clear of it b/c I can’t limit myself…but now I’m thinking it’d be a great way to fuel my training?:)

thanks for stopping by my blog 😀 seems like you are doing great on your journey! i have a polar f6 too and looooove it. i think it probably is kind of normal to see it on the machine next to you, depending on how close it is, etc. though i don’t think that’s happened to me yet.
chobani is so popular, i wish we had them in the UK – but i do LOVE fage 😀

Erica | March 26, 2009 at 7:24 pm
Z bars! I haven’t had one in so long! Love those tasty little bars! Plus they’re organic- how much does that rock? Vanilla chobani is my new most favoritest flavor! I use to really love the blueberry but I think vanilla is kicking its butt now! SO wonderful that you can see and sense your food tendencies changing! Good for you!
