Week 11 done and What I Ate For the Day

A pretty non eventful and quite Saturday for me. It is a rest day from plan which is nice but a full day of work. Since nothing big or new in my day or even running related, I figured I would show what I ate
For the day with my points. 

I get 26 points a day with Weight Watchers and 49 extra points a week. I can use those however I feel fit. And then I get activity points and those can vary from activity to activity and week to week. Last week I earned 52 and this week I have in 14 so far.  

I used to eat all my activity points and it was working for a bit but then I noticed I was eating those and all the weeklies and I wasn't burning and gaining. So now I have switched it to eat just my weeklies and if I want on high activity weeks I will tap into the activity ones if I feel I need too.

So here is my day...

For Breakfast I had

A cup of coffee with 2 tablespoons for fat free half and half with 2 Splenda :0pp
2 multi grain waffles from Aldi-2pp
1/4 cup of fresh blueberries on top-0pp
1/2 tablespoon of cinnamon raisin almond butter ( I'm writing a post on that alone)-1pp
1 teaspoon of sugar free syrup 


Breakfast total-5pp

At work I got a banana and Venti Unsweetened Iced Green Tea with one Splenda from Starbucks-0pp

I packed my lunch for work, like always and brought


1/4 cup of Buffalo wing Almonds-4pp
Baby bel light cheese wedge-1pp
Turkey sandwich on reduced calories bread with lettuce and two sandwich pickles and hot mustard-3pp

Lunch total-7pp

Mid afternoon snack was an apple and finished my 74.4 ounces of water!

Dinner was a bit of a snacks one, I wasn't sure what I wanted and quite frankly I wanted anything and everything. I had plans of getting something for Pollo Tropical but it feel through so I was all over the place.


4 green olives with pits-0pp
9 Ritz whole wheat crackers-3pp
14 slices of turkey pepperoni-2pp
1.4 ounces of Sharp Cheddar Cheese-4pp
1 1/2 cup of Campbell's Burger and Veggie Soup-5pp

And some mister mustard and a diet coke-0pp

I love snack plates because I can settle everything I am wanting.

Dinner total-14pp

Then as a quick after dinner treat because I just bought this at Big Lots and was dying to try them..


Serving size is 11 pieces for 5pp!! They are amazing!! I had 5 pieces for 2pp. These things are soooo good! They would be a great addition to a trail mix of just a quick snack.

For the day total of 29 points, not too shabby at all. Since I love something sweet before bed I allow myself another little treat for no more than 3pp. To make it 32, it is 6pp over so I will be taking from my weeklies but earning it back tomorrow with my run! Win win.

Now not all my days are like this. I tend to eat different items each day to keep myself on point and so I never get bored. It works for me! I think I might do this more often with posting it because I feel more accountable and in tune!

Have a great weekend!!

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I

Let's Go To The Movies....And EAT at Cobb Theaters Tyrone

Image
As part of the Tampa Bay Bloggers, I was given access and a gift card to tour the new Cobb Theatre at the Tyrone Square Mall for social share and blog post, all opinions and reviews are my own. I have lived in the St. Petersburg Area for almost 7 years now and worked at the Tyrone Square Mall for 6.5. In those 6.5 years, I anxiously waited for the mall to get a movie theatre and the time has finally come and this is not just any run of the mill movie theatre, this one is luxury and spacious and a whole experience on its own. Nanci, over at This Crazy Life of Mine , also a Tampa Bay Blogger and more importantly one of my besties, and I have partnered with our blog post about the Cobb Experience. She was in attendance also and there is so much to tell you, we decided to break it up into TWO part posts, linking to the two of our blogs together. I am going to give you the details on the food experience at Cobb, believe me it is more than just soda, candy and popcorn and Nanci is going

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look
