Wednesday

Breakfast: Oatmeal

Snack: Apple

Lunch: Cauliflower fried rice, yogurt

Dinner: Somewhere w/Shanetha. Edit: shared a small pizza with Shanetha. I had my half w/green chiles and roma tomatoes. I also had a bloody mary.

Activity: Gym - elliptical/run, may go to cycling class. I totally slept in this morning. I had some really weird dreams last night that kept me up. Have you ever had those dreams where you almost don't believe them but you know you want them to be real and then you wake up and realize that it wasn't real and it's sort of sad? Well I had that last night and it's still on my mind all morning. I'm going to try and do two activities tonight and if not I'll just workout for an hour.

I just got home (9pm) so no workout today. I'm going to get up early and either go to the gym and run or run outside and then I'll go to Zumba tomorrow night. 

Tuesday

• Breakfast:  turkey bacon and blackberries
• Snack: cheddar cheese, 1/2 an apple
• Lunch: roast with mushrooms and carrots, 100cal pack of cocoa almonds
• Snack: 1/2 an apple and PB
• Dinner:  low carb mac and cheese, kielbasa, broccoli

Long, long day.  I'm glad it is already Tuesday.  I'm also glad I get to wear scrubs for the next couple days--that at least makes life a little easier.  

Tuesday (Already!!!)

Breakfast: Raisin, Date & Walnut oatmeal, skim milk

Lunch: Apple, yogurt, pizza, 2 pumpkin cookies

Dinner: Cauliflower fried rice w/no meat 

Dessert: 2 pumpkin cookies (or like 6 pumpkin cookies, probably should have counted)

Activity: Went and did my run this morning outside and it felt so good! I ran 4 walked 2 5 times and then ran the last 3 minutes of cool down. I am also going to try and make it to zumba tonight. I Think doing two-a-days at least 3 times a week will be my activity goal for the month of September. I haven't decided on any other goals yet. I will try and pick some out by the end of today.

Zumba was especially awesome tonight! Great music!

I'm going to bag up the cookies because I can't handle portion control. I'm going to make this my food goal for the month. I just need to learn to walk away and do something else if I don't feel full.

September Goals:
-At least 3 days of 2-a-days a week. And at least 2 other days with one activity
-Portion control!
-Try to limit processed foods to 1-2 a day if any.

Does oatmeal count as processed if it's Quaker? I'm guessing with the added sugar it would but I thought I would double check.

Labor Day

Breakfast: 2 pieces of toast w/honey

Lunch: Maybe schlotzkys. I've been crazing one of their sandwiches. Edit: small turkey sandwich w/no mayo and baked bbq chips

Snack: Popcorners chips (like popchips but different)


Dinner: Kashi pizza

Dessert: Pumpkin cookies w/raisins 

Activity: Yard work. I mowed and weedeated, then dug up two dead bushes and then transplanted two other bushes. I'm beat. No workout for me today. I'm starting back with the two-a-days tomorrow morning though.

Plan for the rest of the day

1. Clean kitchen/Do dishes
2. Laundry
3. Grocery shop/ Look for fall decorations
4. Reconcile checkbook
5. Change air vent filter 
6. Read
7. Go to bed by 9:30pm

Laundry is half way done. Still need to fold.I didn't make it to Wal-Mart so that is on my list tomorrow so I can buy an air filter. Pier 1 was closed so I will try and make it there some other night this week. Other than that I did get my bathrooms cleaned and the floors swept so I'm feeling pretty good about today. I'm going to go eat some Kashi pizza and make some pumpkin cookies. 

Labor Day!

• Breakfast: almond flour pancakes with sugar free blackberry glaze, iced coffee=16.92
• Lunch: pulled pork sandwich on a thin-bun, cucumbers, queso and chips (couldn't resist my Mom's!)
• Dinner: whole acorn squash

You were productive today!!!!  I didn't do much--went to Mom and Dad's for lunch and dominoes, which was fun.  Sat outside some and enjoyed the AWESOME weather.  I did clean the treadmill of and do laundry!  Yay for something productive!!

I made a fall Want To-Do List today. This weather made me feel really energetic, like I want to tackle all sorts of stuff so I thought I'd write it on here. Do we want to try goals like we did in August? I thought that was a great idea!

2. Find a fall perfume (this just sounds fun)
3. Fix up my yard
4. Fall decorations for my house
5. Smores party (this isn't healthy but it sounds fun)
6. Fall soundtrack (I'm trying to discover new music I like and I thought this would be a good way to document it)
7. Book Club (I think I've found one to join starting next Sunday)
8. Fall wardrobe (I want to try out some new looks thanks to Pinterest)
9. Clean out closets/organize closets
10. New Fall recipes (Pumpkin? Yes!)
11. Fall flower pots
12. Paint front door
13. Finish refinishing dish cabinet
