Hi Everyone!!

I’m going to make this post short and sweet as I will be teaching my Group Power class and then heading up to Rhode Island to begin our Christmas Holiday festivities!!! I can’t wait.

I decided to link up today with the What I Ate Wednesday Crew to share my food journal from Monday. I chose Monday because I was took Monday off from work so I was home most of the day minus a few small errands.

I wouldn’t say I was sick but I had a migraine all weekend so teaching classes and working out was not happening according to my Dr. I was fine with that because I hadn’t really taken a sick day in a while. That meant I got to hang out with Ava, get caught up on Christmas stuff and get organized for our trip to Rhode Island.

I started my day off with a LARGE glass of water. No coffee for me. Huge sad face, but caffeine does not agree with migraines.

I made 2 scrambled eggs with veggies, olive oil and potatoes. Potatoes have become a breakfast staple for me and I never get sick of it!

My morning snack was a banana, a piece of toast topped with 1 egg and mashed avocado. UMM delicious. I love that flavor combo. If you haven’t had eggs and avocado you must try it.

Lunch came on the early side around 11:30. I had a whole grain pita stuffed with chicken salad. It wasn’t anything fancy but this chicken salad is AMAZING. I bought it at Citarella and I will be buying it on the regular! I also had a string cheese with it.

In the afternoon I had some of this Energy Mix and a Grapefruit. 

I don’t know why I didn’t take a picture of the grapefruit peeled, it would’ve been much prettier.

Dinner was a Grilled Chicken Salad with roasted red peppers, olives, tomatoes, cucumbers and balsamic dressing. This is a picture of my half eaten salad

On Monday evening my mom came over so we could finish making our holiday cookies. My cookie request was chocolate chip. I know it’s not really festive but you CAN’T go wrong with a chocolate chip cookie. 

So YES I had one or maybe two and also a bowl of raspberries!

Your turn: What’s something yummy you ate this week?

Have you ever had a migraine before? Are all ready for Christmas and the holidays?
