Hi guys!
So I’m now on SPRING BREAK!
Which couldn’t come at a better time,
I really felt like I needed a little break from everything
& I admit, there is no place like home <3
Anyway, I’m looking forward to this break because I get to see my family & friends!
Today for example:
I’m headed to the gym where my mom works to do a circuit work out
& then meeting my Grandpa for lunch with my Brother!
Then headed to dinner with some friends!
Talk about a day of working out & food…
my favorite combination
Speaking of FOOD, today is What I Ate Wednesday!
& APRIL is serve up an extra cup of VEGGIES!
Thanks to Jenn @ www.peasandcrayons.com
for hosting this healthy party!
I figured I’d go with the theme here
and show you how I like to incorporate MORE VEGGIES!
Last night we ordered from one of
our favorite restaurants for my dad’s birthday!
#PROOF
that you can EAT CLEAN while ordering TAKE OUT!
I ordered salmon & avocado cucumber roll (top left)
with some STEAMED shrimp & veggies that I served with my
Coconut Aminos instead of soy sauce! (top right)
My dad ordered his favorite sushi rolls with some brown rice & steamed shrimp & veggies!
Point for Dad on that one!
I also loved my fortune;
”Truth can be harsh, but it can be helpful.”
I always say that everybody wants honesty but nobody wants to hear the truth.
Sometimes the truth CAN hurt,
but personally I’d rather be told the truth instead of a lie.
in the long run, you’ll appreciate the truth more than the lie.
So the point is; once you face the truth,
it really is easier to move forward from that point!
been there, done that
So onto MORE POWERFOODS & VEGGIES

1/2 chopped Avocado
