Wearing.
Purple top: The Limited; mint cardigan: J Crew; jeans: GAP; necklace: gifted via mom: shoes: Miz Mooz via Piperlime.
Doing.
This morning's workout was a 35-minute stationary bike ride (ramp intervals) and a 15-minute walk with L. I took another 15-minute walk during lunch, and finished my day with a 60-minute Body Pump class after work.
Eating.
Pre-workout I had 1/2 banana, 1/2 mug of black coffee, and 1 pint of water. For breakfast I had a bowl of Kashi GoLean Original mixed with Post Great Grains Raisin, Date, & Pecan cereal, chia seeds, 1/2 banana, and almond milk.
Lunch was 100% inspired by Kathleen at The Daily Crumb. A sweet potato (I cooked mine in the crock pot) topped with a 'baked' (microwaved for ~ 2 minutes) Pink Lady apple, plain Greek yogurt, cinnamon, and a drizzle of maple syrup. It's like dessert, but it's lunch - and it's delicious.
My afternoon snack was golden raisins and almonds.
Dinner was a piece of whole wheat toast topped with chickpeas simmered in Seeds of Change Tikka Masala sauce served alongside roasted zucchini and squash with parsley.
Dessert was a leftover hint o' mint chocolate chip cookie.

love your outfit!
ReplyDeleteall of your eats look delicious, too! i<3 golden raisins :)
thanks, julianna! golden raisins are so awesome. in my opinion far superior to the dark kind. they make a great snack, salad topper, or addition to pasta dishes.
DeleteLove the outfit, Sara! You put Daphne too shame ;)and I've never had golden raisins! Something I should be trying? I'm not going to lie ... they look kind of weird.
ReplyDeleteha you've never had golden raisins? i thought they were pretty common, but i guess not. yes you should try! i like them better (they are sweeter? or something?) than the dark kind.
DeleteI would have never thought of Daphne but, now that you mention it, those are her colors! haha. I love the outfit, either way. (:
ReplyDeleteI've been looking for a new way to eat chickpeas (I have a TON that I need to get rid of). Thanks for the idea!

DeleteWell you definitely picked the most stylish Scooby character! Except perhaps Fred..but that's a different story.
ReplyDeleteyeah if someone would have said i looked like fred i would have seriously punched them.
Deleteawww! Well I love the color of that cardigan! Very spring. :)

DeleteYou had some great meals today! Love the outfit! My friend and I are going shopping soon and I can't wait to find some great outfits. :)
ReplyDeleteoooh shopping with a friend is so much fun! get some good stuff!
DeleteDaphne from Scooby Doo is adorable! At least you didn't get that other girl... whatever her name is. Haha! And your meals look totally yummy. I need to have enough discipline to eat healthy!
ReplyDeletehaha thanks kristine. means a lot coming from a style guru like yourself. eating healthy (once you get used to it) is the only way! i hope you can try some new stuff...
DeleteA sweet potato and an apple sounds so good right about now! And of course that cookie looks delicious. :) Don't worry about the Daphne apparel. She was always my fave.
ReplyDeletethe sweet potato and apple combination is so great you must try. and yes it is 9 in the morning and could totally go for another one of those cookies.
DeleteThat lunch, I'm dying. I love your style, by the way!
ReplyDeletethanks katie!
DeleteDaphne or not, that's a cute outfit! I LOVE the color of the cardigan too, so springy! And yum those are some awesome looking meals. Tikka Masala is one of my favorite seasonings but I've never thought to use it with chickpeas!
ReplyDeleteyeah the chickpea thing was kinda just a means to get in protein and use up the leftovers. they really worked well with the tikka masala - i woudl 100% recommend it!
DeleteAwesome outfit and so many delicious eats!
ReplyDeleteI think its great that you take a few walks throughout your day.
Too funny about the daphne outfit, it's totally cute! Luch looks great
ReplyDeletehahaah DAPHNE =)
ReplyDeletethe sweet potatoe looks so good! great idea!! would probably work equally well with butternut squash pumpkin :) too bad pumpkin season is over but luckily I still have 2 butternut squashes sitting in my pantry waiting to be eaten! I stocked up on them hahaha
never thought of a sweet potato in the crock pot but ooohhmy that must be so sweet and caramelized. And those topping are unreal. Love it!
