Tone It Up Meals: Week 2
I fully intended to give you a recap of our trip to Philadelphia in the form of the delicious meals that I ate, but then I much failed to take a lot of pictures. I’d be a pretty terrible travel blogger because truthfully, sometimes I don’t want to take pictures when I’m traveling. So I did manage to capture some of the noteworthy meals on Snapchat and Instagram but I failed at documenting a full day of eating. Whoops! So I thought I’d just show you what I ate yesterday while attempting to get back on track after the trip with the Tone It Up challenge.
I skipped my normal smoothie bowl and had a yogurt bowl instead. I’m still all about the toppings. This one was frozen blueberries, frozen cherries, chia seeds, and coconut. YUM.
I packed an apple and cashews for a morning snack but I ended up only eating the cashews. I started sitting at a new desk at work and the area is so quiet. I didn’t want to be the person loudly eating an apple so… I skipped it.
For lunch, I headed to the cafeteria for a quick bite. I made this giant salad and pretty much ate it as fast as I could before my next meeting. A bit later, the candy cart came by (yes, we have a cart that brings free candy straight to your desk) so I had a little cup of gummy bears. I hadn’t had any for a while so it was a nice little treat!
The afternoon was pretty busy with meetings so it went by quickly. After work, I met up with Alex and a friend at En Su Boca, a local Mexican restaurant.
I normally just get tacos but I decided to try something different. This was the burrito bowl with rice, black beans, cheese, veggies, salsa, and avocado. This was so good but definitely a lot of food. Alex and I ended up sharing it.
Once we got home, we went for a walk and I squeezed in a couple of the Tone It Up workouts. Every day is different and Tuesday was hard because I was still sore from Monday! After I finished, Alex and I watched a little TV and I snacked on a few frozen grapes and a little bit of popcorn. I’m not sure why I was feeling so snacky but I’ll blame it on the workouts.
What’s your favorite yogurt topping?
I’m linking up with Arman for What I Ate Wednesday!
I am soooo glad my work does not have a free candy cart!!!! I love berries and nuts with my yogurt.
Mmm that burrito bowl looks delicious! For my favorite yogurt topping, I’d have to go with something sweet and crunchy to add balance to the smooth, creaminess…like cereal! (or waffle cone pieces/chocolate chips for froyo 🙂
That burrito bowl looks absolutely amazing Liz! 🙂 And I love that you are so close to the East Coast. It’s really fun for me to soak up all the history there.
Hmm… My favorite yogurt topping would probably be nut butter?
