Of course the green monster continues to be my go-to breakfast meal:

Here’s a shot of my go-to breakfasts and brunch/lunches from this past week:

Breakfast: my usual GM with a slice of toast and some strawberries (or other fruit). Brunch/lunch on my sleep-in days: 2 slices of ezekiel with garden fresh cherry tomatoes (or sliced tomatoes when there aren’t any ripe cherry tomatoes) and shredded marble cheese; an eggbeater omelet with mushrooms, onions, cherry tomatoes and a sprinkling of shredded marble cheese; strawberries/other fruit.

I’ve basically been eating those meals all week and then either a healthy dinner of salad and grilled fish/chicken when eating at home, or pizza on the nights I have a late class.

I haven’t lost any weight (which isn’t surprising since I haven’t exercised much this week), but I’ve been maintaining.  I need to up my water intake, I’ve been slacking on that front lately.

I’ll be back to swimming this week and I restarted the 30 Day Shred, so I hope to finally get through that dvd. I’m also going to try to incorporate some ab exercises in addition to those on the dvd, just so I can get rid of this terrible back pain! Worst feeling in the world! And it certainly doesn’t help that I’m now sitting for hours at a time every day.

This week’s food goal: Eat more salads!
Exercise goals: Swim 3x; run 2x; 30DS 5x
