Dinner was for one this Sunday night. The BF wasn’t hungry and I made dinner for myself. While I was cooking, I ate my strawberries.
I had a Trader Joe’s Belle Mer: Alaskan Salmon stuffed with a savory blend of long grain rice, surimi crab meat, Monterrey jack cheese, bay shrimp and seasonings. It’s in the frozen section of Trader Joe’s and it’s only 340 calories. It’s a nice thing to have on hand in the freezer for nights you really don’t want to put forth much effort. I made some Gnocchi too and topped it with pesto.
Here is my dinner and it was delicious:
I’ve been watching Season 3 of Mad Men. I’m on the season finale (it’s great). Not really looking forward to Monday. But who is?
Julie over at Pickley Pear picked my number for her Giveaway! Awesome. I can’t wait to try the Gnu Bars. And on a side note, if any companies want to send me stuff to giveaway I’d love to have my own contest!
I came in a little over my calories for today but I’m not beating myself up over it. First, I swam today. Second, I burned an INSANE amount of calories yesterday–and wasn’t even able to eat all of those burned calories no matter how hard I tried. Lastly, Reach the Beach is in 6 days. 6 days! I’m excited, nervous, and also wishing I had taken this Friday off from work to relax. Oh well. I know for next time!
Hope everyone had a great weekend!

How many calories do you try to eat a day?

I eat 1590 calories a day whatever I burn exercising.

Funny how calories always balance out. That’s why I never freak out anymore when I overeat one day, because chances are I won’t be as hungry the next day and eat less! Our bodies (usually) know what’s going on
That salmon sounds goooood.

They do balance out and it’s something I’m just now learning.

Pesto seems to go with everything…except Butternut Squash Ravioli like we discovered recently!

Do you use your pesto quickly or freeze it or anything? I never buy it because I’m afraid it will go bad before I use it all!

Normally I’d get a small container of pesto but the BF went a little nuts at Costco. We’re trying to use it as much as we can.
