Post workout eats!
Gotta start with my 1sp per slice Natures Own Sugar Free bread, 4sp of avocado topped with Za’atar (it’s an amazing flavorful South African spice blend that I’m obsessed with since discovering it through Blue Apron) and grape tomatoes. Then of course some luscious strawberries!

This has been a go to crock pot meal these past few months. I eat it over cauliflower rice. Today was the first time I did it on low and let it cook overnight!

Weight Watchers Freestyle has been a total game changer. I had another catered work lunch today and was able to stay within my healthy eating range with this low point, but hearty meal! 

I don’t know if this is new to Trader Joe’s or just new to me, but hot damn it’s good! The TJ demo tossed roasted cauliflower in it, but even dipping raw green beans is delish! This would also be an easy garlic paste substitution for chicken shawarma!

Long Weekend Recap

Friday: Got a great 45 minute lunchtime walk in with my friend J at work. Then after work spent 3 hours with T building our new “dual fuel” (gas and charcoal) grill.

Saturday: back to back Body Combat & Body Pump class followed by lots of salad making/prepping for grilling. We did chicken, hot dogs, grilled veggies, grilled pineapple, as well as cucumber salad and grilled corn salad – which was AMAZING (https://www.skinnytaste.com/grilled-corn-salad-with-feta/)

Sunday: Woke my ass up for a 9AM Combat class then packed up the car to head to Baltimore for the night. Sadly the rain decided to ruin our Fort McHenry visit plans as well as grilling out at our friend S’s place, but we took the cook out inside and a yummy time was still had! S is on weight watchers too so it was great to have a mindful buddy.

Monday: Had a yummy breakfast cooked at S’s and then we headed all headed out to Camden Yards to see the Nats take on the Os. The Nats actually WON, which never happens when T and I go to see them, must have been the away game factor. 

Sunday and Monday I was over my dailies for points, but within my weeklies. Plus all the working out. I’m proud of myself for not just saying fuck it, I was mindful and didn’t overdo it.

Today all of my head student staff is back full time and our summer intern from Syracuse is here on her first day with us! Taking the team out for lunch to kick off the summer.
