Random Pics

First, here's a shot of the new car, a 2007 Yaris. I did pretty good last night, only stalled it a few times. Take offs are a little bumpy, but getting better!


I know it's not the best shot, but it was raining out and I took it from my balcony. I will post better pictures soon. I promise!

Fairwell Echo, you have served me well these past 3 years. You will be missed!


Next, this is a pic of the necklace Anthony gave me. I think it's beautyful!


No other interesting news, or photos for me.

The detox is going well, still not feeling 100% though.

Today's Menu:
B-2 Rice cakes with almond butter, apple
S-Pear, mixed nuts
L-Left over stir fry
S-Carrots, cucumbers, brocolli, maybe hummus
D-Probably chicken with something

Detox Day 3

Not feeling too great today, but I suspect it's from the detox. As they say in the documentation that goes with it, all the nasties that you are trying to get out of your system have to go through your system first. Oh well, hopefully I will be feeling better soon.

On the bright side, I get the car tonight!!! I can't wait! I'll put up some pictures soon!

Today's Menu:
B-Oatmeal, apple
S-Almonds (had a pear but wasn't hungry for it)
L-Salad, tuna, garlic lemon dressing, rice crackers
S-Veggies
D-Pasta and pesto sauce, that I didn't have yesterday

Detox Day 2

I made stir-fry for dinner last night, and it was delish! It had chicken, onion, carrots, celery, brocoli, zucchini, red and green peppers and tons of garlic! I put some olive oil and lemon juice on it. I served it over rice. Amasing. Took a while to cut up all the veggie though.

Going running with the LTR class again tonight. Probably going to do a 2.4km again.

For those who asked, I'm getting a Red 2007 Yaris. Can't wait until tomorrow!

Today's menu:
B-3 Rice cakes with Almond butter, apple
S-Pear, mixed nuts
L-Leftover stir-fry and rice
S-Veggies and hummus
D-Brown rice pasta, basil and pesto sauce, maybe a salad

Detox, running and new car!

First running. Last night was the first night of the running class. It went well. It's a big class, about 25 people! Next week I will be giving the talk on the online stuff, what tools are there and how to use them. I'm looking forward to it.

New car. I found out that my new car is already in at the dealership and I am going to get it on Thursday. I can't wait! Should be fun to drive it home. Still learning the whole standard thing.

Detox. Today is day 1 of the detox and it's going well. I went grocery shopping yesterday and bought tons of fruits and veggies. I tasted almond butter today, it tastes great. I almost like it better the peanut butter. Almond butter on rice cakes will make a very good snack. I made up some dressing from the detox cookbook: lemon garlic. I have made it before and I LOVE IT! Basically it's garlic, lemon juice and olive oil.

Today's Menu:
B-Scrambled eggs with red and green peppers
S-Apple, almond butter
L-Salad, tuna, lemon garlic dressing, rice crackers
S-Celery, carrots, cucumbers with hummus
D-Stir fry (zucchini, carrots, celery, peppers, brocoli, sugar snap peas, chicken, with garlic, lemon juice and olive oil), with jasime rice

AP's: Biking (50min)

Gotta get back at it

My pledge to you dear reader:
Seeings how I log on everyday to read other peoples blogs, I will post something everyday. Maybe not much, but at the very least I will post my menu. This will hopefully keep me on track!

The wedding this weekend was great. The bride was beautyful, the groom was hansome, they looked some much in love. WW wise, it was ok. I probably ate too much, drank too much, but I did get alot of dancing in, so it sorta evens out, right? Hopefully tomorrow's WI won't be too bad. On a good note, I have no more parties and what not planned for a little while.

Starting tomorrow, I'm going to be doing a herbal detox program. The food on it is basically core, minus the option of flex points. I am hoping this will give me the kick in the butt I've been looking for.

I start running tonight, nothing big, it's a LTR, but I am looking forward to it.

Today's menu:
B-Hot Chocolate (1), vector cereal (3), milk
S-Apple, nuts
L-Salad, chicken, cheese, dressing (2), cookies (3)
S-Pear, small piece of cheese
D-Dunno yet, something quick and easy.
AP's: running tonight

Slacker!

What a slacker I have been! I haven't posted in almost a week!! And with such awsome news too!

-I ran the HBC run for canada on the weekend, in 70.57 minutes!!!! That is soooo much better than I thought I could do! Apparently not running for two weeks helps! :)

-Canada Day weekend was a huge bust in terms of WW. I knew I was going to be over my points for sunday, but I had planned on getting right back on track come monday...didn't quite happen! I forgot that we always get McDonalds for breakfast after huge parties. And then pizza for dinner, and my WI on tuesday! I only gained .5lbs, so I'm happy with that. I'm back on track now, and hopefully will see a loss next week.

-I found out that I will be getting my car sometime in the week of July 16th. I can't wait!
