Whew – what a day.  Can’t believe it’s over, but happy because it’s one day closer to the weekend!  I woke up chilly today so I made a yummy and delicious bowl of oats, 2 egg whites, cinnamon, 1/4 c fiber one, 2 tbsp almonds, 1 tsp flax, and 2 tbsp. pom seeds.

Breakfast held me over for hours and hours   I’m thinking it was the yummy mix of textures and extra addition of protein.  Mid-morning I munched on some almonds to hold me over until lunch.

Lunch was leftovers that I had stuck in the freezer last week so I decided to defrost them to have for lunch today.  This was Morningstar crumbles, black beans, mixed vegetables, cumin, and garlic.  Alongside I had some whole wheat Goldfish (been so long since I had these!), and a really crisp and sweet Gala apple.

Mid-afternoon prior to heading to my spinning class, I decided to sample a new flavored Clif bar:  Pear Apple Streusel.  The flavor was AMAZING ~ it reminded me of something I used to have years ago but I really can’t put my finger on it.  I tasted bits of dried fruit and the bar was sweet and chewy.

Dinner was one of Bill’s favorites:  Sloppy Joes.  However I was on a mission to make them healthier so I used lean ground turkey meat!  I semi-used this recipe, except I omitted the onion, mushrooms (yuck), and tomatoes – simply because I didn’t have them in “stock”.

I served the mixture on an whole wheat Arnold’s sandwich thin alongside a baked sweet potato and corn.

Dinner was delicious and Bill really enjoyed it – he thought the Arnold’s sandwich thins were perfect for putting the sloppy joe mixture on too.  Now we’re both stuffed and off to get ready for Heroes tonight!

I apologize for not commenting on anyone’s blogs today ~ too tired!  I will go through comments tomorrow!  Have a great night!
