Breakfast was a repeat of yesterday's swiss oats. I love this breakfast! I prepared it last night by combining a serving of oatmeal, 1/2 cup of soymilk, dried cranberries, and walnuts in a bowl. I covered it and set it in the fridge overnight. The cinnamon definitely intensified overnight so it's a good thing I love it. I added berry flavored soy yogurt and sliced bananas to the mix right before I ate it. Once again, this breakfast did not fail and filled me up nicely!
I was done with work at 11 and stopped at the grocery store on my way home to pick up milkfor my mom and some other items for myself. By the time I came home, it was almost noon. I knew I needed to eat something before my workout even though I had no appetite. One of the things I bought at the store was an Amy's Tofu and Spinach wrap. Once I remembered this, I was excited to eat it. Yum! I love Amy's products! I highly recommend this brand for quick meals.
I met with my trainer at 1 and did an hour long of leg and core strength. He usually stretches me out afterwards for a few minutes, but today was extra long to make sure my legs are loose for Saturday! I came home and read The Memory Keeper's Daughter for a little while. I wasn't hungry at all after my workout, I actually felt sick so I didn't eat anything. It's bad, I know, my body needs fuel to recover, but today I just didn't feel right. I finally got hungry around 4ish. I don't really know what to call this, so I'll say my "third mini meal" of the day. It was the last of my Chickpea-Quinoa-Cashew pilaf with grilled veggies. I'm so sad it's gone now, guess I'll have to make some more.
My friend (who's getting married in 10 days!!!) and I went for a 2 mile run around the lake. It was nice to catch up before the wedding.
I'll be back with a dinner update!

Ahh, sorry that you weren't feeling well after your workout :0( Hope you're feeling better tonight though!
Hope you feel better soon. Your oats looks awesome!
Your oats look good, do you end up eating them hot or cold though? And I understand about the cleanse, it seems like it would take a lot of planning and preparation, but you still eat super healthy so it's all good
I really want to try those things from Amy's!!! They look and sound really good!

(Sorry this is twice - computer issues!)
Thanks girls, I feel a lot better today!
Ashley- I eat them cold! Soaking them in the soy milk softens them up and they are cold and creamy.
Melissa- you should! i highly recommend Amy's brand of products. So far I've liked them all!
I think I will try that soon! Maybe the hotness is what I'm not liking/getting used to with oats. I'm determined to like them because everyone has such good looking and great ideas with their oats I want to like it! haha.
I hope you feel better!
