Day 14 Exercising

Posted By linda on August 31, 2010

Exercising was harder, today. I was little tired. My workout was one minute of running and one of walking.  I ate a lot healthier today.

For breakfast, I had my usual breakfast quesadilla.

For lunch, I had a garden salad. It had spinach, lettuce, tomatoes, and green onions with oil and vinger dressing.

For dinner, I had pasta with spaghetti sauce and daiya cheese.

Day 13 Exercising

Posted By linda on August 31, 2010

I started week three, one minute of running and one minute of walking for 10 times. I was still sore from Saturday but it was a good workout. I felted good afterwards.

For breakfast, it was a bit unusual. I am not a traditional breakfast person. I had a grilled daiya cheese sandwich with onion rings. I was craving junk food all day.

For lunch, it was on the lighter side. I had some roasted and salted almonds and carrots with hummus.

For dinner, I was still craving junk food. I had a plate full of french fries. I think tomorrow, I need to get back to eating salads again. All this salt is not helping me any.

Sunday’s meals

Posted By linda on August 30, 2010

Well, there is much that happen today. We woke up, went to church then had a quiet day at home.

For breakfast, I had my usual breakfast quesadilla.

For lunch, I had a wonderful sandwich. It had mushrooms, onions, hummus, tomatoes, daiya cheese, olives, and spinach on whole wheat bread.

After having two large meals, I just wanted something to snack on some BBQ chips with hummus.

I was craving something sweet. I also had banana for snack.

Day 12 Exercising

Posted By linda on August 28, 2010

Today, I decided to do a different kind of workout. I moved my workout to outside. My sweet hubby and I decided to take a walk. We walk for about a mile then we decided to did 45 seconds of running and 45 seconds of walking. I must say exercising outside is a lot different than exercising on a treadmill. Plus this was a longer workout. Then we walk another mile towards home.

For breakfast, I was really hungry and started the day with my usual veggie quesadilla. It had mushrooms, spinach, tomatoes, green onions, daiya cheese, and guacamole.

For lunch, my hubby and I shared veggie California rolls.

For a light snack, my hubby and I  split a vegan cookie that I found at Whole Foods.

For dinner, I had veggie sandwich. It had mushrooms, tomatoes, spinach, olives, green onions, guacamole and hummus on whole wheat bread. I also had tortilla chips with hummus.

Day 11 Exercising

Posted By linda on August 28, 2010

This is Friday’s post. I had really busy day. I did my usually workout of week two, 45 seconds running and 30 seconds walking. I started the day with leftovers for breakfast. I took the leftover roasted vegetables and french fries.

Roasted veggie wrap with french fries.

I then spend the day shopping that I ended up skipping lunch. I came home and was starving I had guacamole with tortilla chips.

I ate this around 5pm, so I was not hungry for dinner. I keep thinking I was going to eat dinner later but I never did. This is a big no no. I woke the next day really hungry. I tried to eat small meals through out the day so I don’t overeat.

Day 10 Exercising

Posted By linda on August 27, 2010

Today was much easier. I continue week two of 45 seconds of running and 30 seconds of walking.

For breakfast, I had a traditional breakfast. This is a rare thing for me. I usually like things more savory.  I had honey-oat cereal with almond milk.

For lunch, I had organic applesauce with ginger snaps cookies. Really yummy. I ate a light lunch because I knew was going out for dinner.

For dinner, we went to Chicago Uno Grill. They have a lot of choices. I started out with avocado roll for an appetizer, which split with hubby. What I didn’t realize until I got home that it was an avocado egg roll. I won’t be having that again. For the main course, I had a roasted vegetable and feta wrap (I had it with no feta) with french fries on the side. I ate half of it.  Again, I forgot the camera at home. Sorry no pics. But you can go here to Chicago Uno website and get all the nutritional information.

Day 9 Exercising

Posted By linda on August 26, 2010

I have been continue my workout of week two, 45 seconds of running and 30 seconds of walking. I seems to be getting easier.

For breakfast, I had my usual breakfast quesadilla. I took the leftover roasted veggies, daiya cheese, salsa and grilled them on a flat iron skillet. It was delicious. I was so hungry and I forgot to take a picture.

For lunch, I crackers with salsa and some fruit salad.

I had two helpings of crackers and salsa.

For dinner, I could not figure out what I was hungry for.  I finally decide to have an Amy’s burrito. I didn’t feel like cooking after making the family dinner.

For a little snack before bedtime, I had some trail mix.

Take a day off

Posted By linda on August 23, 2010

This post is Sunday’s post. I took the day off from exercising. I started the day with an apple before heading off to church.

For lunch, we had sandwiches and french fries. A veggie burger with ketchup, mustard, lettuce and daiya cheese.

For dinner, my hubby and I went out for dinner and a movie. I had bean and rice soft taco with chips and guacamole. We saw Scott Pilgrim vs the World. The movie was boring and I would not recommend it. But I had a wonderful night with my hubby.
