I had written the longest post, but my computer froze. Annoying! Anyways, to recap:
I had such a great night! The boyfriend and I did some shopping at Chapters, grabbed us some Starbucks and headed to SilverCity to catch A Christmas Carol in IMAX 3D. As much as I am loving this gorgeous weather we've been having, it was really nice to see the snow fall on the big screen in 3D. It felt like I could reach out and touch it without risking frostbite..... I will warn you though, this movie is kind of scary. It's definitely not the typical family Christmas movie!
I'm also happy to announce that I decided on the veggie sub at Subway for dinner. I enjoyed it far more than I thought I would and plan on having this as a treat once a week or so. This is what I had: 6" veggie sub on 9 grain bun with lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, cucumbers, black olives, black pepper, swiss cheese and mustard. Thanks for all the Subway advice ladies!
Newest snack obsession? Weight Watcher's sponge cake! It's a small rectangular piece of sponge cake with frosting in the centre. It's so delicious and is only 80 calories, 3 grams of fat and has 3 grams of fibre. I highly recommend it when you're craving dessert as I often do!
As I was out running errands, I decided to pick up some whey protein. I'm giving the chocolate flavor a try. They also had an amazing looking peanut butter chocolate flavor, but the container was huge and $60! Maybe next time when I have a bit more money!
I was just looking at the cover of Novembers Shape magazine with Jenna Fischer on the cover. Most of you know her as Pam Beesley on The Office. I thought, what a fantastic role model for women! She's the typical girl next door who can also rock a bikini like it's nobody's business! I'm curious everyone, who is your fitness role model? I think mine ultimately is Britney Spears circa her Crossroads movie timeframe.
Anyways, bed time here! The plan for tomorrow is as follows:
Breakfast: oatmeal, blueberries, yogurt
Lunch: Apple, salad, vinagrette dressing, protein shake with 1 cup of skim milk and 1 scoop of whey protein
Snack: Curves granola bar
Dinner: 1 slice of turkey meatloaf, 1/2 cup of mashed potatoes, cooked carrots
Snack: Weight watcher's cake
Oh yes, and I'm cooking my very own turkey meatloaf for the first time..... wish me luck and I'll update you on how that goes tomorrow!

Good luck girly. I'll try and send you an email with smoothie information... I may not be able to until Sunday .. I'm leaving for San Diego and I have a big event this weekend.. But I promise right after :)
ReplyDeleteNo worries! Have fun in San Diego darling :-) Be sure to send me an update of your weekend along with the recipes. Miss you
ReplyDeleteso what is in a protein shake exactly? jut the protein and milk? and where did you get it if you don't mind me asking?
ReplyDeleteI hope the meatloaf works out! enjoy your day off woot woot!
ps-I would probably also go with a dancer, maybe Beyonce or J-lo they look healthy and fit!
ReplyDeletewhen i hear of celebrities who excercise with a personal trainer for three hours a day to get their fab bodies I just think to myself "if you have to work THAT hard at it, it most likely isn't your ideal body shape", you know? excercise is important to have in life but so many celebrities are just ssooo skinny!
Yep, just a scoop of protein powder and milk. You can add fruit if you want to. I got it at the Nutrition House but I'm pretty sure you can get Whey protein in any grocery store's nutrition section....
ReplyDeleteI think my fitness role model is probably Jillian Michaels! I love biggest loser. Because I have a lot of muscle, I tend to drift more towards muscular role models cause that's more what I can achieve.
ReplyDeleteYou have to let me know how the whey powder turns out! And if it actually tastes like real chocolate!
Jillian Michaels is pretty hardcore! You WOULD choose her! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe powder was pretty good! I enjoyed it! Not super filling for lunch.... and the boyfriends mini pizzas look very appealing... but I'd say for an afternoon snack after a workout, the protein powder would be perfect!
