Negligence

Okay, I have an excuse, sorta. My work schedule has changed some so my blogging may have to adjust some as well. Until I figure it out I'll just blog todays stuff for now.

Food
Breakfast - 2 egg whites and 2 slices turkey bacon on an Arnolds sandwich thin. These suckers are perfect for sandwiches and I heart the lady at work who told me about them. Check them out!

Lunch - pb&j with sugar free raspberry preserves on, you guessed it: Arnold's sandwich thin. Also had half of a large banana

Snack - 1 wedge laughing cow cheese on half a sandwich thin. And no, it's not my new every meal thing, it's just that I was out of my regular crackers that I eat with my laughing cow cheese. Also had rasberry flavored FruitaBu fruit thin.

Dinner - 2 Morning Star spicy black bean burger pattys with dijon mustard and raw spinach on top as well as vegan miso ramen noodles. I can't remember the brand but the soup was really good! 1 serving Ghirardelli dark choc. with raspberry

Snack - frozen grapes and a few strawberries. Stupid strawberries and watermelon. I suppose they're not in season because they're going bad on me so quickly. My 8 yr old loves to take watermelon in his lunch and I bought him some Monday and it was already yuck this morning. I might have some popcorn tonight too if I'm hungry in a bit.
Edit! I made the popcorn but I'm also adding in some green olives. I loves olives of all kinds. I was reading an article in Allure magazine yesterday and how eating foods high in antioxidants is good for your skin. I googled a list of fruits and veggies high in them and olives rank pretty darn high. I happen to have a jar of green ones here at work so, voila!

Exercise - no, none today but I drove past the local gymnastics place and they're offering Zumba classes on Friday nights! I've been wanting to try it out and for only 5 bucks a class it's perfect. If you haven't heard of Zumba here's a copy and paste from their site describing it (zumba.com). ~ "Zumba® fuses hypnotic latin rhythms and easy to follow moves to create a dynamic fitness program that will blow you away. Our goal is simple: We want you to want to work out, to love working out, to get hooked. Zumba® Fanatics achieve long term benefits while experiencing an absolute blast in one exhilarating hour of caloric-burning, body-energizing, awe-inspiring movements meant to engage and captivate for life!
The routines feature interval training sessions where fast and slow rhythms, and resistance training are combined to tone and sculpt your body while burning fat. Add some Latin flavor and international zest into the mix and you've got Zumba®!"

Anyway, I'm excited about it, my friend is going too and I've talked my daughter into going :) I'll have to report back on it.

I am soooooo looking forward to this 3 day weekend. I forsee mega pool time in my future. I don't think I'll have a chance to blog tomorrow, so wishing everyone an awesome and safe Labor Day weekend!!

Eta: one more thing :) If you'll look to the right you'll see I now belong to the foodie blogroll, an awesome group of tonnnns up tonnnnns of food blogs. Check them out!
