Glee Night!

Good Afterevening!

Had a very messed up schedule today. The boy had to get up to go to work at 5am. Needless to say, the cats and I were still asleep when he had to go.

Woke up just in time to get my cholesterol tested at my doctor's appointment today. I am very interested to find out what my results are. With all my weight loss, I hope that I am at a healthy level!

Came home and had a Green Monster Smoothie for Breakfast and a mini-bagel egg sandwich (Thomas 100 Calorie Bagel, WW Whipped Cream Cheese, 1 thin slice deli ham, 1 egg in a mug microwaved for 45 secs). And I had coffee. One can never forget the coffee.

Green Monster
1 Cup Skim Milk
1 Cup Spinach
1 frozen banana
1/2 Cup frozen mixed berries

Put into my magic bullet blender until combined.
Usually, I like spinach - in salads or on sandwiches....
Didn't dig it in my smoothie. I have tried a few other combos, but I think I am going to leave it out from now on.

After all the fun at my doc appts, I went to the gym to get a work out in. Wanted to focus more on weights. I wore my Polar F6 HRM, and burned 403 calories today = 4APs. Hoot!
Ran 2 miles on the treadmill and lifted weights for an addt 20 mins. I wanted to make sure I am continuing to lift weights in addition to my new outdoor runs. Can I just say that those 2 miles were so boring on the treadmill after my two most recent runs outside! Can't wait for it to get nicer out again!

After my run, I had a cup of fresh pineapple I cut last night and put into tupperware.

For dinner, I had 2 leftover pieces of homemade roasted tomato and onion pizza with basil on whole wheat dough (from a WW cookbook).

Sooooo good.

I make whole wheat pizza dough and put into a baking sheet.
Roast 2 pints of grape tomatoes, 1 red onion, 2 cloves of garlic and spray with Pam and 1 tbsp of Balmasic vingear at 375 for 35mins. Then spoon this mixture over the dough and bake at 500 for 15 mins. Sprinkle fresh basil and parm over the hot pizza. YUM! Had it with a bag of steamed veggies.


Then for dessert I had Pumpkin Fluff. I have such a love for this it is redic.
Got this off the WW 20-something boards :-)
1 pkge instant FF SF Cheesecake pudding
1 cup skim Milk
1 15 oz can of pumpkin
8 oz Cool Whip Free
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp nutmeg
With hand mixer, blend pudding and milk until combined. Then mix in pumpkin and spices. Blend for 2 mins. Fold in Cool Whip.

Usually, I do not support products like Cool Whip since I try to mostly eat whole, unprocessed foods, but I have had such a terrible sweet tooth lately. This just hit the spot! I ate like half of it tonight.

I have Lily the cat curled up next to me, and Bogart the cat is waiting at the door for the boy to come home.

5 days left until I start my new job! I need to finish the spring cleaning of my apt!!

Night!
