New start? Just maybe....

Ok so, its been a tough month. But last weekend I did some spring cleaning and got a bunch done. Especially my craft room which will be complete this weekend!!! Anyways - it's gonna be a solid week of homework, work, derby and such. I don't think I have much time to myself, but I will probably carve out Saturday night for a movie night with the guy. I have to look at the upcoming weeks to get things ready for my garden and stuff - and most important to get school work done and carve out a weekend just to myself and what I want to get done. Busy, busy, busy!

Healthy Yummies

I decided to forego the list and do the grocery shopping without buying all the usual stuff. Try something new for a change. I went to the Asian market first -and found some delightful goodies in the form of tofu, veggie gyoza and umeboshi plums. Other snacks found their way into my basket...but I digress.
Then I went to the grocery store and bought tons of veggies, some vegan cheese slices, seitan, etc etc. Considering what I bought, only a few not so healthy things made it into the cart. The best part? I feel so much better eating this stuff!

Tomorrow-
1. Get planting stuff ready for Saturday
2. Get a jump on the spring cleaning
3. Eat a nice breakfast (I put this in a different place...maybe that will work better)

2 outta 3

From yesterday's list -
finishing homework
read at work

that whole walk thing didn't happen - didn't sleep well and winter came back to NY. Excuses ? Heck yes. One day I need to wake up and say no more. Is that tomorrow? Who knows. I didn't eat great today but I at least got some healthy stuff in for my lunch(adukis and some fruit). More healthiness tomorrow and most likely another healthy grocery trip on Friday. Whataweek.

Tomorrrows list
1. Healthy breakfast
2. Get school questions answered
3. Clean fridge and make list
if time permits - go to practice

Holy Upside Down!

The detox has gone awry, I ate copious amounts of notsogreat food.
I am so behind in my classwork, mainly because I have lost focus.
I have ideas, but I feel that I don't have the time to really do anything.

It's ok though. It's spring and time for changes. I think a small to-do list would work nicely every day. Today it's finish homework and start to clean scrap room. I have a beautiful new desk to work at. And we have a nice little work room upstairs, set up by Chip and decorated by me. I think I will finish the evening by packing some healthy lunches and getting my clothes ready for the rest of the week.

Tomorrows list
Wake up and take a walk, eat a decent breakfast.
Do some reading on my lunch at work.
Finish my homework for Thursday.

Thats it. If I do more, great.

I sorta behaved

Today was the Meet John party....and I behaved myself pretty good! Ok so I had a couple pepsi's, but all of my food choices were vegetarian. Some lovely mini quiche, hummus and pita, veggies and dip, pizza, the list goes on. Now, I'm relaxing before bed with my midnight snack of a grilled cheese with seitan. Perfecto! This vegetarian thing is getting easier and easier!

Super Health

OMG this is sooo cool. I have been mainly vegan/vegetarian for the last couple weeks and I can't believe how great I feel! Sure, I indulge in some not-so-healthy goodies once in a while, but since I eat so much healthier it doesn't seem to affect me as much! I have discovered Tofutti cuties- delightful soy ice cream sandwiches....and Lightlife veggie bologna (don't tell Hapanowicz). Thanks to the Kind Diet book, I also found Rice Dream mint pies....and they are delightful! So it's really cool to find all these new healthy things - so much more variety in my diet!
