Under the weather...

I have not been feeling in tip top shape today, although I did drag myself to the gym for a little treadmill action (no running though!). My left ear kind of aches (sinuses!), but I took some ibuprofen and am feeling a bit better now....which is good because I have to work tonight 5-10!

Here are a few pictures of some of my eats from today before I head off for the night...

Breakfast was a Cinnamon Lover's Dream...Kashi Heart To Heart Warm Cinnamon Oat, Cinnamon Puffins & Multigrain Cherrios.....HALLLA! :D
I also had half of a frozen banana mixed with PB....
I only wish I could give everyone a sample....But I can't, so go make it yourself! ;)
I have been eating lots of these juicy babies....
let's hope the Vitamin C kicks up my immune system!
Lunch couldn't have been more comforting....Poor Man's Taco Salad! (aka Amy's Chili over crunchy lettuce)
I also made the best thing ever. Well, at least the best thing that I have ever eaten out of a cone. Breyer's FREE Vanilla Ice Cream with about 1/4 or so of a frozen WF Vegan Choc Chip Cookie crumbled in.
Oh. My. Gosh.
Penny's Low Fat Desserts Oatmeal Raisin Cookie
Yet another winner. It had a subtle sweetness that was enhanced by the little pockets of natural sugar, known as raisins ;) . The cookie itself was dense and soft (per usual), but was also a bit heartier than the other flavors thanks to the heart healthy oats.
Soft & Delicious
Off to work! Let's hope I am in tip top shape for pilates tomorrow morning!

  12. Get well soon! I try to push through my workouts when I don't feel well, but i usually fair better just skipping them when I am sick..speeds the healing process I think. But I know the feeling..I hate skipping. Hope you feel better!

  14. I hope you feel better :( Ugh, I hate sinus aches.

    Regarding your question about IBS, I don't think you can ever get ride of it, but you can treat the symptoms by eating the right foods. For example, you seem to know that carrots and banana give you trouble, so maybe try to limit your intake of those foods. Banana are especially bad for IBS because they are high in fructose. Especially as you have them in the picture above (frozen and cooled a bit). The more ripe they are, they more fructose they have, the more they may effect IBS. I know it sucks. Try them less ripened and see what happens!

    Have a good day. Thanks for the question and feel free to ask me more!

  17. Keep with the vitamin C! Hope you get feelin better fast!

    Wow, that ice cream mix looks amazing! Adding in favorite foods (i.e. cookies) to yogurt or ice cream is one of my all time favorite things to do with food! Oh there are so many combinations to try!

    Once I'm through all this fresh fruit I have to eat before I "hopefully" leave to visit home... I will definitely be breaking out one of my frozen nanners to try your creation!

    p.s. am I not considered a fabulous foodie?? ... ): Nah, you do what you want girl!

    Hope today is a better day!
    XOXO,
    Keri

  18. awww lovebug, i'm sorry to hear that you aren't feeling well! If it makes you feel any better, I was definitely a sick little blogger last night. :/ Not fun I tell you, not fun!

    That cereal mess looks amazing and after your review of the neat Kashi Heart to Heart, I think it's necessary that I find those bad boys soon!

    Hope you get some rest, tons of vitamins, and good food so you are feeling much better soon!
