Hi there! Two more days left at my full time job. Holy crap, that’s as crazy as it sounds 
Knowing that makes today just a smidge easier. You see, yesterday ended with a 9:00 p.m. sand volleyball game on the other side of town. Did I mention it’s currently 5:30 a.m. and I have a 6:00 a.m. client before work? Two more days. Two more days.
But let’s rewind back to what yesterday started with.
After a 45 minute Insanity workout with the husband, breakfast was NEEDED.
A breakfast cookie! I haven’t had one of these babies in a while. This one in particular had oats, 1/2 a banana, 1 T. peanut butter, 1/8 c. almond milk, maca, Jay Robb protein powder, cocao nibs, and cranberries.
Washed it down with a no fuss smoothie involving half a frozen banana, frozen blueberries, water, spinach, and a 1/2 t. xantham gum. It was the perfect breakfast to fuel a hard work out. Note: Insanity makes you SWEAT. On my side of the floor, it looked like a rain cloud passed through. Shane’s side looked more like a monsoon, but that’s neither here nor there 
Then I was off to work for a few hours. My trainee is pretty much trained. I don’t think my managers will miss my mad planning skillz with him around Not sure what we’ll do these LAST TWO DAYS (!!) but I’m sure it’ll be all good.
For lunch, Shane and I went to Chipotle, and I ordered the veggie burrito bol:
Nomtastic as always.
Around 3, I had an unpictured snack of plain greek yogurt + homemade granola. And then around 5, I trained a client.
Once home, I walked Niko, cleaned up, and got started on dinner.
For the main course, I sauteed some Quorn chick’n strips + portabello mushroom slivers:
And topped a spinach and bell pepper salad with it.
It tasted delicious with a dressing of EVOO, apple cider vinegar, mustard, and this stuff:
I’m slowly but surely making my way through my NuNaturals stash. I really do love this Stevia. Would you guys want to do a giveaway on this stuff? There’s enough readers that like stevia on the blog for it, right?
For the other main course:
can you really consider this deliciousness a side? I used a dipping sauce of mustard + honey + more PB. It was good, but the fries really didn’t need the sauce.
While this meal was digesting, I caught up on Glee. ‘Twas a good one. Neil Patrick Harris is pretty awesome.
And then when I felt like I should get ready and go to bed, I left for my volleyball game.
Who schedules games at 9:00 at night?! Yeah…definitely going to need that second cuppa joe today, m’friends.
I’ve already made breakfast, but I’m planning on eating it at work after my training session:
Nothing new here, just some Overnight Oats in a tupperware container. Still yumtopia, though
Well I’ve got a full day up in RAN land, but will try to post tonight or tomorrow:
-train
-work all day

hehe. Two more days
Do you have a countdown going on right now? I love having things to look forward to! So even if there’s nothing huge coming up, I still like to “countdown” until something. So, what’s your countdown?
MAJOR countdown going on right now…I’ve been living in China for 10 months and I’m going home in 4 weeks and 3 days. I’ve already planned my first 6 meals….is that crazy? =)
Wow, 10 months in China! My husband was there a year ago for a week on business and LOVED the whole experience. However, he too looked forward to meals at home.
Haha no that’s awesome! And congratulations!!!

I’m doing a nice backwards countdown…this semester is over, and my summer, night class doesn’t begin until June 7. I’ve promised (myself) to undertake a major house cleaning on these free days.
I too enjoy counting down, it makes the time go quicker. I’m currently counting down to my first half-marathon, it is in 10 days! I can’t believe it’s almost here, I’m just ready to do it already.
Ahh! You’re gonna have so much fun
Ahh i wana do insanity sooo bad!!!! I am counting down until my ONLINE CLASS is over! haha its getting so annoying!
I would LOVE to win some NuNaturals stevia!
My current countdown is until my husband gets home from his business trip tomorrow night. I’ve been solo parenting and it’s exhausting.
I don’t have a formal countdown but I am excited and think about how I only have two weeks until my first ultrasound. That first one always makes things seem better and brings a peace of mind.
I think its nuts to schedule a game at 9pm on a weeknight too!
definitely enough stevia lovers for a giveaway!!
So exciting – two more days! I am counting down to the ice cold beer at the end of my century ride on Sunday. It is going to be the best beer eva!
I cannot wait to hear about your century ride!!!
2 more days! You must be SO excited!
I have 2 countdowns-
1 is for my trip to NYC next week
2nd one is for my Turks n Caicos vacation at the end of June.
Only things gettin me through this week of finals and work! lol
That sounds absolutely wonderful!
No countdown’s right now.. I wish I had one!
I really don’t have anything to look forward to right now. It’s kind of a bummer.
Yay for almost being done with the FT job!!
well right now just countdown to the weekend!! i still have a full friday day of work ahead of me!!
have you started month 2 of insanity yet?! I start the week after next! YIKES im nervous! haha but I do love it!!
Not yet. We aren’t really following the plan- so it’ll take a little longer
I hear month 2 is brutal though!
Stevia Giveaway? Yes!
I love that sauce you made. It looks so good! Anything with nut butter is good though
I’m counting down to when I start my full time job in July. Until then though, I’m just enjoying the time off
