Sandwich Lover

May 24:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BELLA!

It's my little girl's 8th b-day. WOW.



We can't help it, we're just two fools in love :-P.

Workout:

-27 min cross ramp
-stretching

-slice of brown rice toast with tomato & basil laughing cow wedge, sauteed spinach, 1 fried egg
-blackberries & blueberries with a lil blueberry almond milk yogurt
-starbucks via with a splash of milk (forget if it was vanilla coconut or unsweetened almond)



MMM. I liked this combo a lot.

I brought an Amy's meal to eat, but we ran out of ink and needed it asap. Lucky for me, Which Wich is right next door to Office Max (and lucky for us all, Office Max is basically within walking distance to our office, even tho we always choose to drive lol). Obvi amazing sandwich>>>>>frozen meal, as good as Amy's are!

-which wich small sub (wheat bread, hummus, avocado, tomato, peppers, pepperocinis, black olives, dijon mustard, lettuce, vinegar, black pepper, red pepper flakes, caramalized onions, mushrooms, & cucumbers)





So, SO good. I could eat Which Wich for lunch every day pretty much.

-handful of tortilla chips (oops, unncessary!)
-big bowl of fruit salad (blueberries, blackberries, organic raspberries, organic pineapple, organic strawberries, organic cherries)



-pho!



Perfect rainy day dinner.

-ginger ale zevia for dessert

Deeeeeeelish day.

May 25

Workout:

arms & legs

-side salad (organic mixed greens, organic strawberries, & goat cheese crumbles drizzled with local honey & organic olive oil)
-blackberries/raspberries/blueberries
-organic pineapple
-Dunkin D's iced black coffee that I added milk to (I forget if it was unsweetened almond or vanilla coconut) + stevia at home




The fruit & salad supposed to be my lunch, but I forgot I had a business lunch until riiiight after I made it the nite before, so I saved it for breaky instead.

Of course, our business meeting ran late, OVER an hour in fact (SO rude, we pay this guy a LOT of money to consult and he's always on the phone, late, etc. but he's a necessary evil ugh). We ordered in Jimmy John's & decided to just meet in the office group room. My Dad and I ate our food about an hour before the guy even showed up. I had...

-turkey sandwich on wheat bread with lettuce, tomato, sprouts, & dijon



My Mom wanted to do a girls dinner, but she was starving around 4:45 pm and I was still full from my 1 pm sandwich. I was beginning to feel sick tho, so I agreed to go with her for Mexican and I'd get soup.

-corn tortilla with salsa + obvi chips with salsa
-multi-flavored frozen margarita (thought it may help freeze my throat ache and numb my shoulder pain away...and it kinda did)
-bowl of tortilla soup





Yummy.

I thought I'd be hungry later, but I really wasn't.

Right after early-dinner I had a venti zen green tea...trying all hot & cold self-medication methods to soothe my ailments!

Why yes I am at the sonic drive thru. Not for me!! Starbucks all the way.

I also had a few frozen grapes, but they didn't taste very good. Bummer.



Bonus Pics from undocumented Monday yum-ness:


LONG overdue Indian Food Monday! It didn't disappoint. Though I do wish they'd serve their cabbage again. I've only seen it once and it was delightful. What a tease!

big plate--mostly veg, a few bites of chicken tikka masala
small plate-all veg
HEAVEN. AKA Sulji Halva.

chocolate vitamuffin top with biscoff

4th of July Eve :-P

July 3

I got up at 8:30 am. On a Saturday.

-about half of a medium (which, let's face it Dunkin, is a large) iced coffee (started out black, but I later added almond milk & stevia)
-half of a jelly filled donut
-half of a maple glazed donut






Everytime I take my dogs to get groomed I have to get a Dunkin Donuts coffee (and sometimes breakfast). Just trust me, it's basically the law. (It used to be an iced blueberry latte lite no splenda, but a.) I don't drink dairy milk anymore, and more importantly, b.) one time they acted like I was NUTS for requesting blueberry and they'd never heard of such an abomination, despite me having it many times before. Sooooo...I've shyed away from my one true processed coffee flavor love affair).

I had myself fully convinced just to pick up the coffee and make my own nutritious breakfast at home, but I ended up with a couple donuts a la carte. Dammit, Amanda :-P. It started off with me being nice and getting a couple jelly's for my Mom as a surprise (they're her fave), then I thought, well shoot, I want half of one. That was that. UNTIL I saw the maple glazed. I like maple! But I forced myself to cut that in half as well and give the other half to my brother.

I mean, they were good and all, but not worth it. Especially after I saw all of the ingredients and just thought of chemicals dancing in my belly, lol. Overactive imagination, me?

I don't know if you've noticed (err ha, how could you not? I'm basically swimming in it....), but the more I tell myself to cut back on sugar the more I eat the heck out of it.

-leftover sushi & tempura (I forgot to pack the leftover wasabi, boo)



I planned to stay home and relax alllll day and nite, but my cousin asked if we wanted to come over and see Kendyll, so we did. Here's the pretty lady:


letting herself in and out of the dog cage, LOL

-1 salmon & zucchini kabob
-a little bit of hummus with pita
-1 bud light lime





Tried a new-ish place called Zoe's Kitchen. It's really good! Seems pretty fresh and healthy too.

-half plain half red velvet cake frozen yogurt w/ toppings (some fruit some unhealthy stuff)
I threw a little bit of it away

-organic lemonade mixed with sparkling water



-ezekiel tortilla w/ laughing cow light & superfruit jam





I really wanted one of the curry tofu egg rolls, but they had mold on them :(. They were supposed to be good 'til July 10!

-shrimp cocktail



Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good. As always.

-the last salmon kabob & a little more salad
-half of a wedge of watermelon (well more like half of a half, my dog insisted we share)
-waterrrrrr (finally)

looks like somebody wanted some lol
