Tuesday

Got up today after a long night of being up and down.  Something upset my stomach last night starting around 800p and lasted throughout the night and today lets just say "Ring o Fire" and leave it at that....haha...Feeling better now though, cranking lots of water to keep hydrated.

Wasn't feeling like eating anything this morning and I cancelled pilates just in case my body wasn't quite ready for it after the night.  So i did have a red pear (which I adore after they sit out on the counter for a few days and really soften) around 930am.  Not a great breakfast but better than nothing.
Lunch was early today - around 1145am and was the same as yesterday - a multigrain 3" bun with ham and some Miss Vickies chips.  Whatever.  The afternoon was spent on maintenance which I HATE - nails done, pedi, snatch wax, etc....all in preparation for Vegas this week.  I saved a tiny portion of last nights stir fry and I will eat it around 500pm - its really small.  Tonight I am going to a ladies night at The London Club with a girlfriend and I"m sure they will have nibbles so i plan on having 2 glasses of wine and since the stir fry will satisfy me, hardly any snackies.

Once I'm back from Vegas my house will finally be back in a routine that has been missing since the first of Sept - no more trips for me until Feb.  I can get my fridge stocked with tons of healthy foods and be home everyday to prepare meals.  I find that preparing ahead of time is mandatory for me to stay in line.  When I'm home and really on the ball my fridge is filled with the following:
1%milk for the kids and for cooking with - I don't drink milk.
Diet cranberry juice for my shakes, OJ for Tom and the kids, sometimes Almond Milk for shakes.
DIet pepsi of which I drink one per day and is certainly not allowed on the Eat Clean plan.  Remember I'm not perfect - there are some things in life I will never give up - designer shoes, bags and diet pepsi are those things.
2% plain greek yogurt for my shakes (none of this fat free filled with other crap in my fridge)
Regular yogurt for Tom and the kids, applesauce, YOPS, chocolate pudding - all kiddie stuff.
Green grapes washed and pulled off the stems.
Raspberries washed and in a bowl
Various cheeses - light medium, swiss, cheese sticks for the kids.
Tons of produce depending on the day - always a variety of green, red and orange peppers, cucumber, broccoli, lettuce - sometimes romaine hearts, sometimes iceberg, garlic always, Macintosh apples since Avah has a new love for them and it thrills me every time I see her bite into one, oranges.

That's a good overview.  And I always love when I open my freezer and see that it's barely half full - I hate frozen meat so I always buy fresh, I don't buy frozen pizzas anymore unless its a babysitter night, we very rarely have ice cream in the house now.  My freezer does have frozen berries, french fries (you never know), frozen yogurt treats, corn kernels....not much else really.

If anyone has any great snack ideas for me or my family I would love to hear them.
