A little flax August 20, 2008

This morning I had my usual oatmeal with a small ripe banana, almond butter and a little flax. I haven’t had flaxseed in a while but last night I finally has some time to grind some up. So hopefully since I put flax in my oatmeal this morning I won’t need a midmorning snack.

Too much snacking and a great dinner August 20, 2008

Before I left for volleyball practice I was starting to get a little hungry so I had a Z Bar.

I got home from practice around 6pm and of course I wanted something to snack on. So I had some honeydew and a couple handfuls of sunchips (no pic). I would have to say that snacking is my biggest problem. I love to snack!! So that is one of my goals…stop snacking so much!

I started making dinner around 7pm when Mike was on his way home. I decided on grilled chicken salads. On mine I had lettuce, tomatoes, olives, red onion, green pepper, cucumber, pepperoncini, cheese and chicken with a little BBQ sauce and buffalo sauce. I couldn’t decided on which dressing I wanted so I put about a teaspoon of each. It didn’t really need any though.

For desert I had probably one of the best ice cream bars ever…well that are lower in calories. It was Dreyers Slowchurned Cookies & Cream. These are so good!!! Notice my dog in the background wanting a little lick.

Look at these babies… August 20, 2008

OMG!!! I have never seen squash this big before. A friend of mind gave me these today…maybe I’ll use them tonight for dinner. Thanks Cristina!!!! 

I’ve include my snack in the picture. I’ll be eating this before the gym tonight. I’m doing my first spinning class tonight. Wish me luck!
