Back on track, baby!

So the weekend was quite a success in terms of cleaning and food prep, and even some socializing/imbibing. I certainly won't drink like I did on Saturday (see previous post) - today I feel sooooo tired. I think it may have been the chocolate milkshake my daughter gave to me around 7:00 yesterday from her dad's house (is he trying to poison me? Hmmm....) - since I've been cutting down on sugar (does alcohol count?), I think the double whammy of the sugar and the hour combined to give me a sugar hangover today.

The house is nice & clean, I have healthy food prepared for the week (marinated chix, greek salad (cuke/tomato/feta diced up & seasoned, yum!), cut up red/orange/yellow peppers, cauliflower, broccoli; I made a nice chickpea stew with crushed tomatoes and baby spinach; I got some sea & bay scallops for a dish later this week (ok, so the creamy sauce maybe not so healthy - hopefully the kids will at least eat it!); I have fruit (blueberries, tangerines, bananas) and the proverbial soy yogurt & granola). It's weird how the preparedness will often give me more energy - maybe because the worry of "what the eff am I going to make for dinner/bring for lunch?!" is taken away. Oh, and I also made strawberry/rhubarb cobbler - the worst thing about it was the cup + of sugar, but I used whole grain oats on top instead of granola. Better than B&J for a dessert fix.

I plan to go to yoga tonight and then I have school Tues/Weds, so perhaps I will have to make more of an effort to get to that lovely 6 a.m. Thursday yoga class?
