Monday again. Where does the time go?
For breakfast this morning, I had 1/4 cup egg beaters with 1/3 cup turkey sausage scrambles on top of Earth Grains whole wheat toast along with a glass of milk and a banana for 8 points.
I was going to work out this morning but I just wasn’t feeling it. Mondays! But we did get in a nice workout last night, so a little more time for my body to rest was fine.
While working, I sipped on coffee with my new Natural Bliss Coffee Mate creamer for 1 point.
Look at the ingredients:
And compare them to a regular creamer:
A pretty big difference! And the nutritional information isn’t that different:
It has a good flavor. I like it! I saw four flavors in the store. I picked up caramel and vanilla this time.
I didn’t have a snack on my first break because my breakfast kept me full again.
For lunch, I had a sandwich thin pizza with Canadian bacon and pineapple for 6 points.
I also had a side salad with lettuce, tomatoes, a boiled egg and mushrooms topped with light ranch and BBQ sauce for 3 points.
I finished it up with fresh strawberries for 0 points.
On my very last break, I ate popcorn for 4 points.
For supper, I made shrimp tacos in a high fiber tortilla with lettuce, tomato and a Slimcado for 4 points.
Hubby found the Slimcado at the grocery store. They are HUGE and have 1/2 the calories and fat of an avocado. They taste just as good. I know that the fat in avocados is a good fat—but this saves points! Very cool.
I also had a small serving of David’s Beans. They are my FIL’s recipe. 2 points.
I finished it up with a Fiber One brownie for 2 points.
Oh so satisfying.
I was so stressed out after work. I had a hard day of some very angry customers yelling at me. I try my best to keep my cool but I don’t know how people are be so bitter and viscous with a complete stranger. I cannot wait until I can quit my job one of these days. I talk a lot about how I am stressed out. I have been reading about hormones and cortisol in particular. I kind of wonder if my overly anxious personality and my social anxiety issues make me stress out and produce too much cortisol. Cortisol can cause high blood pressure. I am no doctor, but I wonder if it’s connected.
So after supper, hubby agreed to work out with me. I told him we could go for a walk or do some relaxing yoga. He chose the yoga. lol. I found a Candlelight Yoga workout on Netflix and I.Am.In.Love. It completely relieved my tension and my stress. I feel absolutely amazing. I decided to let the workout run until Hubby complained, and he didn’t complain until there were about 30 seconds left!! lol. This workout took about 40 minutes. I seriously can’t believe he made it that long! It was fun. I love my husband. Have I mentioned that? It was just hubby and I with the lights dimmed doing candlelight yoga. 
I have 2 points left for the day, so my day has been on track. I was really feeling like I wanted to do some stress eating tonight. So thankfully I no longer feel like that!
By the way, check out my review of Vi-Shape Protein Powder. This week I have a product review tonight, and a giveaway a day for the next 4 days!! I have some great stuff to giveaway so stay tuned for that!
