Day 5 - Round 2

While I still haven't tackled that little list of to-do's, I did have a productive day around the house. I got up and washed my hair before Willow woke up for the day (because getting to wash your hair while being a stay-at-home mom with a nearly-two year old is a feat!), washed and dried everyone's bedding, plus managed to even get a little visit in with my mom. I'm thoroughly enjoying this great boost of energy, because it makes housework seem easier, and not so much of a chore :)

I decided to have a cup of coffee for breakfast, and of course I used liquid Stevia and 1/2 Tbs. of milk to make it taste better.

Since I enjoyed my taco salad from the night before so much, I decided to have another for lunch today. This time I didn't have a fruit with my meal, but I was full enough to get back to my busy schedule.

Now, this is going to shock you. I kind of went off protocol.. I had broccoli. And it was delicious! Could've been better with butter, but otherwise I completely savored my 1 cup of steamed broccoli, and chicken tenderloins. Instead of cooking the chicken in a skillet with a small amount of water, I probably should have grilled it, but I just didn't want to take the time for my grill to warm up. Next time, I'll just have to be more patient. Since broccoli has 4 grams of carbs, I dropped the Melba toast from my meal to be on the safe side. After everyone had dinner, and the kids headed to bed, I sat down with B to watch a movie and snacked on a green apple. And it was perfect :)
