Much Better…

It’s amazing what a full night’s rest can do for a bad mood. I woke up this morning in a really good mood and luckily never fell back into my cranky state of yesterday. Thanks for all your kind comments yesterday and for being so understanding. I’m so blown away by all the sweet comments I get day-to-day!
For breakfast this morning I had the one I wanted for yesterday. I had Vanilla Chobani and some pb puffins. Delicious I can’t get enough of this combo.
For lunch today I decided to make up for my lack of veggies to get a subway veggie delight 6 inch sub.
Lettuce, cucs, red onions, green peppers, and vinegar.
On the side I had some Baked Lays.
After work I picked up Andrew at school and we stopped off at Whole Foods.
I had my first taste of “garbage water”.
This stuff seriously smelled so offensive. I don’t know how to describe the smell, kind of like low tide on the Jersey Shore, I guess, if you know what that smells like. But the flavor? Fabulous! I loved it! My dad tasted it and said it reminded him of dying Easter Eggs. And then he made a lot of faces. I tried to give it to Andrew and he refused and my mom commented “Danielle, leave him alone, he just finished eating.” I was little upset because here I am enjoying this drink and my mom is insinuating that I’m going to make Andrew vomit from a sip. Ready for a little TMI? This drink is fizzy, fizzy = burps. Burping after drinking this is gross, try to refrain from doing that. I would definitely buy this again although not often, 4 bucks is a little steep for something that makes my loved ones ill.
While at Whole Foods I of course had to eat from the salad bar.
I had a 1/2 a piece of lasanga, 2 potato wedges and:
A big salad, romaine lettuce, celery, grated carrot, onions, cucs, red and green peppers, some kind of pasta salad, and other things I’m forgetting I’m sure. It was a nice cold veggie full salad.
I’m now home and getting ready for bed, tomorrow is my Friday so I can’t wait until 5 o’clock to be done with work for the week! Hope you are all having a fabulous night!

I’m going to have to try a veggie sub sometime. It looks so yummy!!!
OH and I had to laugh when you said your Dad said the drink tasted like dying Easter Eggs. I swear I read on another blog that someone’s husband said that very same thing. LOL

Glad you had a much better day!! A good night of rest does wonders! I think I’m the only blogger who hasn’t had the WFs salad bar and I don’t know what’s taking me so long – it looks delicious!
Have a great Thursday!!

I’m glad you like the Kombucha – I’m addicted. I like the more savory ginger versions (Gingerade, Trilogy) more than the sweet ones. I haven’t tried raspberry yet though.
I just tried my first plain Chobani yesterday – so good. I know you’re a huge Chobani fan – do you know if the flavored ones as thick as the plain?

Isn’t sleep great?! I like your blog, What is that water that you have pictured? I have not heard of it before. Did you purchase it at a specialty store?

Not sure if I would put the drink to my lips if it smelled that bad. Funny about your Mom’s comment.

I couldn’t get past the smell when I tried it, so I’m impressed! You did much better than I did. That’s one of those things that I really wish I liked, but I just… don’t.
Happy almost Friday!

Hi! I’ve been a reader for awhile not but have never commented due to me starting a blog just yesterday! But I wanted to say how much I enjoy reading your blog and about your story in changing your ways to be much more healthful etc. It’s inspirational and I can’t wait to be bloggy friends! 🙂 p.s. PB Puffins are my LIIIFEE!! xoxo Brooke

Good night sleeps are the best.
I SERIOUSLY am craving a sub now. I haven’t had one for ages.
And I’m pretty sure those drinks are not available anywhere around here but I want to get my hands on one. Stinky drinks? Heck yeah!
