Just two points before I “blog”… I think bringing my own water helped tremendously… no tummy pains as of yet… and another point… I don’t really like Chinese food, so I’m right there with you rhodeygirl!  When I said it was a splurge, I meant it was a splurge to get take-out

I couldn’t wait to get my hands on a big bowl of steamy cereal this morning, despite the start of an anticipated heat wave!  However, instead of oats, I decided to have some cracked wheat as a nice change… I topped this bowl with strawberries & flax… it was deliciously filling and had the perfect texture!

Breakfast held me over for about 4 hours today, so I didn’t have a mid-morning snack until almost 10am… I had a blueberry Stonyfield yogurt and mixed in some additional blueberries & Kashi Go Lean… Again, texture seems to be a big thing with me lately, but I loved the chew & crunch & smoothness of all three mixing in.

I ate my lunch around 12:30 today because the snack held me over fairly well… I was looking forward to my lunch because it involved those amazing blueberry preserves & crunchy peanut butter on top of a wheat english muffin… alongside I had an unsweetened applesauce and then I popped a mini bag of butter popcorn

Since I’m going to kickboxing tonight, I’m planning on eating this Clif bar (full-size bar) to hold me over until I get to eat dinner (probably not until after 7pm)…
