What (we) Ate Wednesday

What do y’all think of What (we) Ate Wednesdays? Interesting? Or dull?

Be honest… I can handle it.

However, today’s it’s still here!  Starting with …

Breakfast

1/2 whole wheat bagel with 2 egg whites, broccoli, spinach, onions and 1 Tbsp of Philadelphia 1/3 less fat chive cream cheese- for some flav-ah!  And 1/2 a grapefruit, too.

Protein 14.58

Sodium 389.17

Pre-yoga Snack

1 handful of raw almonds with my Juice Plus gummies.  I noticed the newspaper article I ordered a back copy of for Hubbs was sitting there and figured it offered a nice background.  He’s going to frame it and put it in the brewery.

Lunch

I know, I know- you’ve seen this before, but it’s just so darn good!  It’s my beloved Athena Wrap from Laurel Market.

Afternoon Snacks

Yesterday it looked a lot fancier, right?  Well today was the reheated speedy version in a ‘microwavable bowl’.  Still tasted delicious!!

Black Cherry is quickly becoming one of my favorite Chobani flavors.  Topped with some omega-3 goodness, it’s quite the snack combo!!

Dinner

I tell ya- I just can’t get enough Indian food lately!  I made this Chicken Tikka Masala at home using Jen’s recipe.  However, I also added in chick peas, used plain Greek yogurt instead of cream and less oil.

It was yummy!! Next time I’ll add more spice, too, but that’s just me

The facts (based on my best estimates) for the masala, 1/2 piece naan and the rice (I know it isn’t the ‘correct’ rice for the dish, but it’s what I had )

After Dinner Snack

Though I didn’t really get hungry again, I did start craving a little something sweet, so I ripped open the Love Grown Granola- chocolate version.

MMMmmmmm! I snacked on about 1/4 cup- one little piece at a time and it totally quenched my craving.  A bit of salty flavor – with chocolate chips!

Sodium 2804.93

Though the sodium isn’t too much higher than the suggested 2300 a day, I give up (for now) trying to keep it under 1700.  It’s too much for me to focus on when I have so much on my plate.

I’m not retaining water and my blood pressure was 108/72 at the doctor yesterday, so I’m not too concerned.  When summer heat hits, maybe I’ll revisit the goal

Speaking of my doctor’s appointment… here’s a sneak peak at tomorrow’s Bumpdate…

So… What We Ate Wednesday… yay or nay??
