Clean Eating Day 4

For breakfast I had a protein drink made from 8 oz skim milk and 1 scoop of triple chocolate protein powder.  I also had 1 slice whole wheat toast topped with 1 tbls almond butter and 1 tbls ground flaxseed.  I know the picture doesn't look to appealing but it was actually a pretty good breakfast.


My midmorning snack was 1 apple with 1 cup Greek yogurt.  Once again I dipped the apple in the yogurt and it was a really yummy snack.


For lunch I had a salad made from spring mix greens and topped with 2 oz southwestern chicken, 1/2 cucumber, 1 roma tomato, a few slices of onion and 1/8 cup lowfat feta cheese.


My midafternoon snack was a protein shake made from 8 oz skim milk, 1 scoop Jillan Micheals triple chocolate shake protein powder, 1 banana, 1 tbls all natural peanut butter and 1 tbls ground flaxseed.  I didn't take a picture of it though but it was very good.


For dinner I made Mexican stufffed peppers.  I got the recipe from http://girlstuckinarut.blogspot.com/ and you can find her recipe here http://www.keepandshare.com/doc/2521533/mexican-stuffed-peppers-356k?da=y.  They were very good and so good in fact that I completely forgot that I was going to top them with sour cream and guacamole but I scarved them down before I remembered....lol.


Here is what I made one of my sons, instead of putting the filling into a pepper I put it in Tositos Scoops and topped with cheese, sour cream and salsa.



Here is my take at the grocery store today.  What's so great is everything you see here I bought at Aldis which is a discount grocery store in my area.  They have lots of healthy foods.


No exercise today but I'm hoping to get back on track in that area real soon.

  10. Christina,
    Thanks for the message on my blog! I'm so glad you're back =))) As for the magazine, they say it takes 6-8 weeks to start getting the subscription. I am thinking you should be getting it by now. I put it in in November, let me know if you don't get one by valentine's day and I can put it in again. I just don't want to end up with you getting 2 copies of the same magazine because we jumped the gun!
