Rainy, Dreary Day!!

Welcome to fall people!  I don't know who wanted fall to get here, but it wasn't me, especially after today.  We went to the farmer's market this morning (which is awesome that Fremont has them) and endured the cold, rainy drizzle to get some fresh fruit (mmmm...honey crisp apples) and vegetables.

Regardless of the wet weather it was still a fun day.  I started the morning at the gym by working my legs until they felt like jello (1/2 hour of leg exercises then 45 min. spin class), then went and got my haircut (thanks to the fantastic Karly at Ambience!), came home and took a nap (I love a good nap wrapped up in a blanket when it's chilly out) and then ventured to the grocery store with my hubby to get the rest of the necessities for the week.

In between I got in my five meals every few hours, and here's what they consisted of:

7:30am
Breakfast shake - same as yesterday except I added 1 1/2 Tbsp. of Sun Nut Butter because I knew it was going to be a long morning at the gym.

10:45am
Leftover salmon patty and 1/3 cup potatoes

1:45pm
5 oz. chicken with leftover salad from last night (about 2 cups)

4:15pm
1 rice cake topped with 1 Tbsp. Sun Nut Butter and 1 tsp. peach/pear jam that I got at the farmer's market.  Tasty!!

6:45pm
4 egg whites and 1 whole egg topped with 1/2 avocado and 1 Tbsp. parm. cheese and 2 slices brown rice bread topped with 2 Tbsp. Earth Balance.

It wasn't my most stellar nutrition day, but I kept my portion sizes in check and ate mostly clean/green foods.  (By the way, when I say "green" foods I'm referring to foods that are healthy for me, not actual green foods.)  Monday is scale day, so let's see if it has changed at all from last week!!
