When you’re hungry, you’re hungry

August 23, 2011

Hey guys! Does this day feel like it’s just inching by? I feel like it is. Something about this Tuesday is draggin’.

This morning I didn’t have too much on my work list so I did a little blog work. I actually made my new background. So cool huh? I’m pretty proud of myself.

Finally it was time for lunch. I swear, today seconds are more like minutes and minutes like hours.

Lunch

We met my Mom at Michaels for lunch! It was fun having her join us.

I had my usual blackened shrimp tostada smothered in salsa. A la cart of course. Mom had the same.

Not too shabby for good old iPhone pics.

After lunch I decided to go home and lay out since I didn’t have jobs to do at the office. So I spent the afternoon catching some rays in the backyard while streaming this week’s Bachelor Pad on my laptop.

I snacked on a spoon of peanut butter and a few butterscotch chips once I was all showered and changed from sweating away the afternoon. 3pm hunger?! What is this?

This snack did NOT hold me over very long so I actually made dinner at 4:30pm. When I’m hungry, I’m hungry!

Dinner

Quick dinner! I made some instant brown rice (1/2 cup) and added it to an original Garden Burger and Mann’s rainbow mix. I stir fried the veggies and Garden Burger for 4 minutes then added the rice. I topped it with some of the leftover apple bbq sauce. Super yummy and 100% vegetarian.

According to My Fitness Pal, this super quick dinner was 465 calories.

  • 150 for the brown rice
  • 50 for the rainbow mix
  • 160 for the Garden Burger
  • 105 for the super sweet bbq sauce

Hopefully this will kick my hunger for the evening.

Today I had a run on the agenda with some strength. Lately my digestive system has been a little unhappy. Yesterday after my run I just didn’t feel good and this afternoon the same thing happened so I decided to scratch the run and just relax. Hopefully I’ll feel back on par tomorrow.
