Another Day Another Nickel

Title really has nothing to do with today but my 3 year old announced the phrase to me this morning upon waking. I thought it deserved some notoriety. Lets see where did I leave off..??

For dinner last night I cooked up some quick turkey chili thanks to Chili-O mix. Love that stuff. My lovies ate that and I just had some plain turkey with tomatoes that I reserved on the side and....and....uhhh...to be honest I cant remember what else I ate with it. A little later I snacked on this protein crepe which consisted of 3 egg whites, half scoop vanilla pp, stevia, and cinnamon, blended very well then fried up like crepe. I then added some peanut butter to the warm deliciousness. Yum!

Disclaimer: Not all protein powders work in this recipe so beware. You may end up with a rubber flying disk.
Oh ya, I had another large salad with dinner and a half of a low carb ww tortilla.

This morning was leg day. I was dyin this morning. I almost cried at the gym! I don't know if it was because my workout was so intense or if it was hormones. Either way it was a first. After I returned home and ate some oat bran and eggs I felt much better. I was shocked when I checked on my brussel sprouts. Those babies are like Jack and Bean Stalk. Check em out...this is 24 hour period...

Maybe its just shocking to me since I have never grown anything before?

Did my usual run to take the little one to gymnastics (which she now claims to wanna replace with karate) and then ran home for a snacky. Banana with 1 1/2 tbsp. pb and 2 nuked egg whites.
Then out to finish lamp shopping. I actually found one at my first stop. It had a decent price as well. Glad to get that out of the way. I also stopped to pick up some lactaid. I have been havin some real bad stomach problems for some time now and I figure the culprit either has to be, dairy, protein powder, of artificial sweeteners. I still have some cottage cheese and some fage in the fridge that I cant let go to waste! For lunch I whipped up something quick with the left over chili. We'll call it a chili burrito. It was very satisfying. Whole wheat tortilla from Whole Foods, bed of spinach, turkey chili, and steamed asparagus..Rolled up and cut in 2

So, I am completely unbiased when it comes to eating meat and not eating meat but the debate is never ending and I find it to be a pretty interesting one. I came across these articles from some emails I get so I thought Id share. Enjoy.

CONFESSION OF THE DAY: I don't feel like I play enough with my daughter. :(
