I had a snack of some grapes with cheese mid-morning. Lunch was yummy, yesterday's shrimp and couscous leftovers with a side of raw baby carrots. I had an orange in the afternoon, then made kale chips when I got home. Yes, KALE chips! Chopped up kale with a drizzle of oil (used my hands to coat it well) and into the over at 400F for 12-15 minutes until crispy. A sprinkle of sea salt when they come out, and they are ready to enjoy!Be careful, there is a very delicate window from crispy to burnt, so watch them after about 10 minutes. SO delicious, thanks Auntie Sue :)
Dinner was baked chicken with a honey mustard marinade that I made myself with steamed broccoli and what was supposed to be a baked sweet potato. Come to find out, 30 minutes is not long enough to bake a sweet potato, so we had left over couscous instead. Still very yummy, and now I can have the sweet potato with my lunch tomorrow.
It may seem like I am eating a lot, but I should have mentioned earlier that I am a snacker. I have never been one to be able to go a full 5-6 hours between meals. I would much rather have less food, more often. Which is good, because that is what is recommended anyways, but in the past I was not always the best decision maker when it came to snack time. I have always been one to say that I would rather run an extra 3 miles than not eat a piece of cake. That still stands true. But I am going to try and cut down... maybe. haha
No yoga tonight :( Major headache made me conk out super early. I am definitely going Thursday though. It's hip-hop yoga night at Southcoast Yoga. I am excited :) I have really enjoyed it the few times that I have gone. I am getting very determined to return to my gymnast flexibility and master some of the more advanced poses that I know I could do a few years ago.
