This is going to get a bit hard because I no longer have my laptop working at home so I'll be posting pictures and entries in this one single post.

March 9 2017
BREAKFAST: Protein shake
SNACK: Raisin bran muffin
LUNCH: Ranch salad with romaine, cucumber, croutons
SNACK: Same as above

March 10 2017
B: (4) scrambled eggs with ketchup
L: (2) blueberry pancakes with maple syrup and (4) breakfast sausages
 And I didn't log my dinner, whoops!

March 11 2017
B: (2) slices pepperoni pizza
D: (skipped lunch was pretty much snacking as I was at a 2 day bachelorette!
- peanut meatballs, basmati rice, macaroons, wine, spinach dip with pumpernickel bread

March 12 2017 - Sunday - the last day of the bachelorette
B: waffle bar! (2) waffles topped with organic peanut butter, dark chocolate almond butter, - literally SCRAPED both of them on with strawberries, blueberries, dark chocolate chips and banana.
L: Whole wheat pita with veggie / meat sauce (from the stuffed peppers) with mozzarella cheese and green onions.
And the pictures below are dinner at Lee's Restaurant:

This is the 19 ingredient signature slaw. I should have recorded her talking as she tossed this beautiful and delicious salad. It was amazing - I can't wait to go back. Super fresh and a great way to cleanse the pallet between courses. 


Indian vegetable fritters - gluten free - squash, zucchini, onions, chickpea, plantain. Spiced tamarind glaze and mint yogurt. (literally copied the website which I'll add at the bottom)

Rack of lamb - banana fritter (OMG it was so so good) - red sauce: tomato lentil - cumin stew, yellow ring: coconut carrot cardamon chutney and lastly green ring: chili mint. The flavour combinations were excellent. If my friends didn't order it, I don't think I would have but I'm THRILLED they did.


This is Christine. She's been my best friend for 25 years. How many people can say that about their friends? Friends will come and go but sisters are forever and Christine is my non - blood sister. We've been through everything together - laughs, tears, heartaches, and most importantly happiness. She's getting married next month and I am incredibly honoured to stand next to her on the biggest (and most memorable) day of her life. I love this girl!

PS: I didn't get to try her dessert (because I had one coming) but she said it was yummy. - Ice cream with a berry compote inside a pastry.


It was a fat day and a celebration. You can't say no to dessert in this case. This is a vanilla creme brulee with a lemon pastry and a berry compote.Reading the website it said 'lemongrass' creme brulee. I knew there was lemon somewhere just not sure where. It was absolutely delicious. It was really nice to go to an 'adult ' restaurant instead of the usual chains I would go to like Boston Pizza or Wild Wing. I still enjoy them but eating out to different places and trying new things was a great way to end the night. 

Lee's Restaurant

So that was my weekend. Back to the grind. Today we are going to get a major snow storm. I'm supposed to go to my parents place after work (mom made my favourite meal). I packed my clothes for Tuesday just in case I spend the night. Will see though. 

OH!
Huge PS - I didn't exercise Saturday / Sunday. I wasn't even thinking. I was offered to use my friends gym in the condo but I didn't pack my running shoes - and she has ridiculously tiny feet. Shame, I packed my gym clothes as my pjs too. Darn shame. Anywho - stay tuned.

Sleeping.

I feel like I've always taken advantage of sleep. The power of sleep - not one of life's wonders. You get a good night sleep, you're able to function properly the next day. I never truly appreciated the act of sleep until last night. I'm in bed roughly by 9 pm maybe 9:30 pm and I'm a light sleeper. (perfect mom quality might I add) Jack on the other hand goes to bed around 10:30 pm or 11:00 pm. He admitted he has FOMO - F ear O f M issing O ut but in regards to TV / Facebook videos so he's up watching something so that's the reason why he doesn't go to bed at the same time as me. Well last night the Leaf game was on - and I can only assume that they lost because I didn't hear any screaming at the TV then again I didn't hear anger either and Jack's pretty loud when it comes to Leaf games (major hockey fan). I only heard around 11:19 pm that he was heading to bed. And then the loud breathing started. I can't really tell if it'...

I'm hungry. Again.

Ever hear (and feel) that rumble in your stomach and wonder if you're truly hungry or just thirsty? I do, all the time too. So far today I drank 3 of my water bottles (each at 25 oz) and about to refill for bottle #4. I'm 99.9 % sure I'm hungry because a) I haven't eaten since 11:00 am (and it only makes sense I'm hungry) b) Starting to get a headache and c) I just chugged some water and I have that weird feeling in my stomach like - Hey, your water count is too high for the amount of food you have eaten which is practically nothing. Low carb, high protein.  And man does it feel good to eat. Honestly, it feels like I have been starving for a day and I could dance around in happiness after that first initial bite. I am going to devour this bowl of food.  Only 15 more minutes until I have to get back to work. Why does lunch always disappear so fast when I am on the computer but when I am outside for a walk it seems like its forever  Hopefully K-sta...

Oh hello

Hey there stranger, it's been awhile, hasn't it? I don't even know where to begin!! It feels nice and calm that my head is screwed in and I don't want it to EXPLODE. The speech went great. It was short and sweet - Jack went off his speech and did an amazing job. I was really impressed, his was pretty sweet. We were a bit taken a back because there was no podium. Jack wrote his speech on his phone.. so it was a bit weird for him but so did a couple other people. Actually one, it was one other person and it was Jamaal's family member so Jack shouldn't feel awkward or anything. YAY! Christine is married. I'm so happy for her. She has the whole week off - lucky goose. Then again, today is my Friday. Tomorrow is good friday so that's a day off but because I usually have fridays off, I get a lieu day so I GET MONDAY OFF TOO!!! Major smiles up in here. So lets get this show on the road shall we? Okay so this is what happens when you forget your protein ...
