I started off the day with making my egg white muffins (basically a bunch of egg whites on top of veggies cooked in muffin tins. Pretty good! There was a bit of envy as I made my children their pancakes and eggs...but not too bad.
I then got my yoga ap up and got moving....usually I do this later when the little one is sleeping but today I was ON FIRE...however this made yoga a bit more challenging as down dog became a bridge to go under and kids (who initially were distracted elsewhere) came to "help". But I got it done...Whew!
I had my first snack (second breakfast) of nonfat cottage cheese and beets and got on with the day. I have been recovering from a cold so it is not surprising that I fell asleep while putting the little down for her nap and got up with girls ready for lunch which for me was tuna made with greek yogurt(not as good as mayo but passable with the inclusion of a lot of veggies cut up). Then we all headed out to get Salmon at the store with the promise of a park walk upon return. I must admit if I had not set alarms for snack I would have missed the afternoon one and as it was I had to throw together a protein powder smoothie. Then a walk to the farther away "cooler" park. Got back and made the best meal of the day hands down....SALMON! I made the recipe in the book with a mustard dill sauce and it was actually really good, I also made the lemon garlic green beans - also A+. [ Then the chaotic dash toward sleep time, and a final (while the kids slept) snack of greek yogurt ranch dip and veggies and almonds......I MADE IT! And now I have lots of leftovers for the next few days :)
So ultimately day one was a success!
