Some thoughts and discussions from me.
What I Ate Wednesday + My New Secret Potion {video}
Good morning, my dear friends 
Thank you all so much on the well wishes for my appointment yesterday. It went so good!
I just got back from an early morning yoga class, and decided to film a little video while drinking a “potion” from my new naturopath (ok, she called it a tea 
) before we get started into WIAW. Enjoy!
On to What I Ate Wednesday!
Yesterday was kind of a random day of eats. We were fresh out of any breakfast foods I enjoy eating, so I had leftovers for breakfast. It was a busy day, so workout was just a 30 minute upper body resistance workout with a 15 minute warm up. Random, but I’m a pretty random gal…if you haven’t realized that by now!
Here we go!
Breakfast – 7:30 a.m. – Shepard’s Pie:
Told ya – random. This was actually Monday night’s dinner, and it was SO good, so I did not even mind eating it again 10 hours later. I didn’t even make it pretty for the camera. I just reheated and eated 
Yum.
Lunch – 1:30 p.m. – Salmon + Sweet potato:
I mixed an entire can of salmon with a little full fat, plain organic yogurt, cardamom, s&p, and lime juice, and it was deeeelicious! On the side, I nuked a whole japanese sweet potato, and then drowned it in kerrygold butter, sea salt, and cinnamon. This is basically what I’ve been having for lunch every single day. This was also, unfortunately, eaten in my car on my way to my naturopath appointment.
Dinner – 6:30 p.m. – Steak tacos:
Steak tacos! With a side of tortilla chips. I covered each of the steak taco mixture with a little of the aforementioned yogurt, salsa, and some onion. I also had a glass of red wine with this meal.
I’m so sad that Shane and I ate ALL of these last night, because I sure would love some leftovers today. Plus, a pound of flat steak at WF’s is flipping expensive!
Snack – 8:30 p.m. – yogurt, almond butter, pumpkin seeds, and dark chocolate.
Unpictured, because I never ever ever remember to snap a picture of my nighttime snack for WIAW posts. Side note: I should probably start limiting my dark chocolate before bedtime because of its caffeine content.
That’s all folks!
Do you ever eat leftovers for breakfast? It’s the best, I swear.
Have you had any close encounters with the flu epidemic at your gym/fitness class/box/studio? Ugh, rude!
I TOTALLY am all for left overs for breakfast!!!!!! I feel so strange, but I do it anyway – sometimes I just wake up craving chicken!!!!!!

I’ve been known to kill some leftover pizza (still cold) for breakfast!

Shepherd’s pie for breakfast! That’s pretty funny, but also pretty stinkin’ delicious! In high school I had pizza for breakfast a few times. Cold. It’s definitely not the healthiest now that I look back, but it’s a guilty, yummy treat!

I love leftovers, I mean what’s better than having a kick ass meal and then being able to eat it AGAIN!! I totally agree that if your sick you should stay in doors preferably your own doors.. but maybe she thought she could sweat it out. If it were me, I would have stayed home, I wouldn’t want a pissed off Paige on my tail.. LOL
oh BTW can’t wait to hear all about your Naturopath visits.. I’m really interested in holistic healing. I think we’ve been given everything to heal ourselves by way of this beautiful planet. God is Great and all knowing Right!! I just started my journey with Essential oils and homemade skin products! It’s fun to know you have remedies available with out having to have a bunch of side effects
I can’t do the leftover thing for breakfast! I need a sweet element in the morning.

Yum for a savory breakfast! I’ve had roasted veggies for breakfast & they are always delish. Yea for yoga! And so far no flu here (knock on wood), there are HUGE jugs of hand sanitizer all over the office. Good luck staying healthy!

SO FUNNY! I totally had leftovers for breakfast this morning. After I logged an hour on the treadmill I nuked some of last night’s dinner: American Chop Suey (made with zuchinni squash). Total yum!
UGH, Jay has the flu! I’m washing my hands like crazy and not coming into contact with people..well too closely, but I have to work. I’m loading up on zinc/vitamin D/vitamin C in hopes to ward it off! Say a prayer for me…I really don’t want to get it!
I’m pretty much an oatmeal girl for breakfast, but Max LOVES leftovers for breakfast. Things he’s had lately are tuna salad, chicken soup and spaghetti. He’s a savory guy in the mornings.

I’m so happy to hear your appointment went well! Wahoo for success! Oh my, did someone really go to the yoga studio sick, with this whole epidemic happening! That is horrible! I’d be so nervous I’d spread it to anyone. I’m also glad you can still have your one cup of coffee;) hah, I wouldn’t be able to survive without it…well I would, but you know. I’ve actually never done leftovers at breakfast! I don’t know why, I feel like that’s a good idea though. Since I’m pretty bad with using them up.

A few thoughts after reading your post: you.are.beautiful! So fresh-faced and natural – especially for being “sweaty and with a morning face” – really, Paige! Also, love that you ate leftovers for breakfast. I never do but what’s to stop that as a great breakfast option? 🙂 And your yoga experience? Ugh. Sounds pretty rough. When I was sick last week I had to take 1 day off and tried to get back to work quickly. I don’t think I was still contagious but felt SO bad coughing/sniffling – so self-conscious like I should get out of there! I would never last in a yoga class if I felt like that!

Thank you, Bonnie!! <3
Recipe for the shepherd’s pie please!!!
It’s not mine – it’s from Well Fed! But it’s super yummy.
Awesome – I have Well Fed. Everything I’ve made so far has been amazing so I can’t wait to try this too!

This is probably really dumb, but I always thought PCOS was pronounced Pee-kos, not like the letters. Do people say it that way too or did I just randomly think that?

lol! I think you may have randomly thought that. I could be wrong though 😉
I’m totally behind on commenting on this, but I read the post/watched it on my phone the other morning! I LOVE your vlog! So great to hear your voice! It’s always so fun to hear blog friend’s voices for the first time. I sound like a dork in the only video I’ve ever posted (a video for Tuesday Trainer in October). And the story was funny about the chick coughing. Well, not funny so much as RUDE on her end, but funny how you told it. I hope your secret potion works!

Haha, my boyfriend will eat leftovers for breakfast, but I just can’t do it! I don’t know why, but eating non-breakfast food in the morning is just really weird for me. I’d rather just stick to my oatmeal 😉
Store-bought, or homemade sheppards pie?
I like that you used aluminum foil to seperate two sections of your lunch. I’ve never though to do that!
