Today’s Rest Day was a busy one. I knew that today would be very busy, so I
did the grocery shopping yesterday and got things ready for this coming
week. It’s back to week one of the “4
Weeks to a Leaner You” meal plan. I
don’t mind at all because these meals are fantastic and I am really enjoying
pretty much all of them.
I didn’t write last night as I was snuggling with my son
while we watched a movie. I should be recapping
yesterday as well as today, but the time is moving along and I’m afraid I would
be up way too late if I did both days in full.
So here is a very quick recap of yesterday…
Workout: Cardio…Burlesque Quick Fit Workout + Burlesque Sexy
Sculpt Workout
I will talk about these more another day.
Food…
Breakfast: Protein Pancakes with Almond Butter
In the sunshine.
Lunch: BLT
Snack: Pear, Cheese String, Protein Powder mixed with water
Dinner: Steak with Kale and Quinoa
Snack: Apple with Natural Peanut Butter
One of my snacks was supposed to be the Pina Colada Protein
Shake. I made it, I tried it, and I
didn’t really care for it. I like
pineapple and coconut, but not really mixed together in a drink.
I may try again next time.
My husband enjoyed it though.
Today’s recap…
Today’s food…
Breakfast: Winter Morning Quinoa
And THAT it was! A
winter morning for sure.
Through the
night, the wind blew and the snow came.
The ground was covered once again with snow. So this morning’s breakfast was only
fitting. I did change it up this
week. Instead of using a pear, I used an
apple.
Lunch: Bacon Wrapped Steak Skewers
This was my ‘Cheat’ meal for the week.
Well in a way, I guess. My lunch today was to be a Steak Salad with
goat cheese. But this is where the Quiet
Lunch with My Husband comes in.
We dropped our children off at The Museum for a Birthday
party...
...and we went out for lunch to Boston Pizza. I have ordered this same meal before and it’s a good one. It’s actually on the appetizers menu. I didn’t use the sauce that it is served with, but I did give into the Onion Straws. Onion good…batter, not so good.

Dinner: Roast Beef served with a Salad with Greek Salad
Dressing
Okay…so this wasn't on the meal plan either, BUT after
picking up the kids from birthday party #1, we made our way to my Mum and Dad’s
home for my Dad’s 84th Birthday dinner with my family. So it’s was Birthday party #2 time.
Happy Birthday Dad!!!!
Snack: I ate CLEAN. I resisted the Chocolate “Spaghetti and
Meatball” cake that my Mum had made for dessert.
Instead I opted for a healthy Banana Loaf that my sister had made. I was even tempted by the chocolate cake. Stay Strong!

So good!
Tomorrow it’s back to my strength training workouts. As I mentioned the other day, I add another
day this week. I will be doing some more
cardio too this week. I am going to bump
it up a notch this week.
I’m feeling great and I’m feeling strong! Looking forward to what this week has to
offer up. It will be the same food as
week one, but you know me I will probably change things up a bit.
Now…onto the winner of the Yoga Conditioning for Weight Loss
DVD…
The winner is…

Congratulations Jamie! I will contact you to get your shipping information.
Thanks to all those who left comments on my blog, on
Facebook or on www.MyFitnessPal.com. I know that some of you that read my blog are
unable to comment on the blog itself, so commenting on Facebook or MFP is okay
with me. I LOVE hearing from YOU. YOU are an inspiration to me. Thank you.
All right, I need to get my butt into bed now. 5:30am on a cold winter morning will feel
like it’s coming 2 hours earlier.
Until then…Stay Strong!
Good night

P.S. I mentioned that I didn't write last night because I was snuggling with my son. We were watching a movie starring Matt Damon. In the movie, Matt was running for the senate and he wore a suit and tie pretty much through the movie. My son told me he wanted to be a business man and wear a suit and tie. So today when he was getting dressed, he asked me where his black tie was. And this is how he went to the birthday party...
