Back to the grind tomorrow..

Today has been so productive! Wow. After lunch I poked around and finished up a few more loose ends for the different applications, then headed off to spa day!


I painted my toes :)

After that I made a "snack" from a bunch of fruit I had lying around that I didn't want to spoil. Because I was going to gravity after this, I had an ounce of cheese for a little more substance..


This was really tasty- but all the citrus from the blood orange and kiwis hurt my tongue- isn't that weird?

I wanted to eat at the dining center tonight, but that meant eating a little earlier than usual which was annoying. I was going to get chicken (slightly lower calorie) but the beef peppers looked good, and I haven't had beef in a few weeks now. The veggies were yummy as was the rice, and I ate everything except a little of the rice. 

Now it's off to organizing for the week, homework, and SLEEP! Yay- chem lab in the morning! ehh.

Fruity Friday

I have definitely been enjoying the yummy fruits from Hillside, and today has been no exception.

Breakfast: overnight oats with blue berries soaked overnight, with a banana added this morning. I like this breakfast a lot- it seems to hold me over the longest, and I don't finish craving anything. Sometimes my pb+choc oats make me want sugar! Not a good thing for me.

I had lunch at southside today, codfish with carrots, zucchini, and a risotto. The fish was COVERED in spicy but surprisingly tasty onions! Usually I don't like fish or onions, but they tasted great to me today. The risotto was lame, but I was hungry.

When I got back from classes, I had two kiwi fruits and a pear (I forgot to photograph that- whoops!)

Here are some other ways I have been eating my fruit. These are from the past few days, not today.

I had a blood orange with my egg casserole the other night. These just might be my new favorite fruit- they're so pretty and taste amazing!

Here's a crappy photo of a very delish snack: blue berries, a sliced kiwi and some greek yogurt piled on. 

Happy Friday!

energy bars

Yesterday I had biology lab, and I usually get so hungry during them because I have lunch at noon, and then goes from three until after five. Too long for my tummy! I packed one of the "energy bar" things from my care package to give it a try.

I was thinking chocolate sounded yummy.

Prognosis: the idea of this bar is a good one (organic, chocolate covered, texture) but the raspberry flavor was very fake-y and made it taste weird. I definitely prefer my cool mint chocolate Cliff bars, but this was worth a try!

After lab, it was onto Zumba! I figured I should probably eat a little more so I would have oodles of energy for class, so I decided to try another energy bar. I know that two in a day is BAD but I usually only have these once or twice a week, so I figure doubling up one time really won't kill me.

Here's the second one I had:

This one was very yummy! And at 170 kcal, it has fewer calories than the normal bar which was nice. It tasted slightly like coconut, and I would definitely have it again. Yum.

Onto today! I rocked the chocolate/pb/oatmeal/banana combo that I love so much this morning. Then for lunch I had some fish with veggies and some sort of whole grain rice thing, it was very good too!

After all classes were finished, I went to Hillside to check out their fruit. They have the best selection on campus I have found, and boy was I happy when I saw what they had! Pears! Kiwis! Oranges!! Oh wow I bought them all. Take a look:

Yeah, I was pretty excited. The only fruit I didn't buy today is the banana.
