Lunch was not at all satisfying today. I just wasn't feelin' my salad and pizza combo. I ate the majority of it, but it wasn't exciting. My lackluster lunch left me desiring something more.
My salad was a mix of veggies from home plus leftover Asian Chicken Salad from yesterday. (I snagged a leftover salad at the end of our meeting!) Inside today's salad: romaine, grape tomatoes, green and red peppers, Mandarin oranges, edamame, snap peas, carrots, jalapenos, and marinated chicken. It sounds like an awesome salad, right? Unfortunately, my taste buds did not agree.
Lunch also included a piece of leftover pizza from last night. (Sorry that some of my photos are flipped the wrong way!)
On my way back from a meeting this afternoon, I grabbed a handful of plain M&M's from the department's reception area. It's funny how quickly that can happen!?!
As previously mentioned, lunch did not satisfy. Physically, I probably had enough, but mentally, I wanted something else to eat. I decided to dig into my afternoon snack a little early: a piece of whole wheat bread with peanut butter and banana slices. It was definitely a good food choice; I felt much better after eating it.
Snack Numero Dos
I have plans to meet a friend after work for a drink at 6B. A drink is fine and dandy, but I'd prefer not to eat out tonight (trying to save dinero), so around 4:00 pm, I munched on a Coconut Cream Pie Larabar to hold me over until I get home.
Note: THE COCONUT CREAM PIE FLAVOR IS HEAVENLY!!!!!! It's easily my new favorite!
Career News
Just today, I registered for the Boston NASM Certified Personal Training Workshop! It's a 2-day live workshop in November that focuses on assessment, exercise technique, and program design. I don't think the workship is specifically designed to help me pass the NASM certification exam, but it will definitely help me put the pieces together and it gives me a chance to experience personal training firsthand! Can't wait! :)

Something that I spread on my bread nightly
And when I'm done, I put the lid on tightly

To the extreme I eat snacks like a vandal
Spread on the Butter and light up a candle
Eat, then rush to the nearest whole foods
It's pleasing your stomach and fixing your moods
Creamy when I eat a dope bite
Anything less than the best ain't right
Love it or leave it you better lose weight

I'm dreamin' of Barney B and cant stop shakin'
Cant wait to spread it, so rich and creamy

A nice free jar with a yellow label
I'm on cloud nine, it's time to get stable
Waitin', of course you know
With my laptop on so CNC can show
The bread is on table waiting with the bagel
Did you stop no I just read more
Kept on reading through the next post

The blog was dead

HOORAY FOR LOVING THE LARABAR!! Definitely a wonderful flavor (duh, haha).
Those lyrics are TOO FUNNY!!! And clever!!
That's my favorite flavor too! Coconut makes everything better! :)
I need to try that flavor. I love coconut! That workshop sounds really cool. It definitely sounds like it will be worth the time.
Those lyrics had me laughing out loud! Thanks!
I think I am in love with this Dave C. Those lyrics are hilarious!!! Now I'm humming "ice ice baby"...i mean "barney butter baby!"
Told ya the CC Pie flavor reigns supreme! I think it's just like a Mounds bar, sans chocolate :)

I want to try the coconut Larabar and the PB one, but I guess I will have to continue to wait. I can't find them anywhere! That workshop sounds amazing. Love the finished lyrics by Dave!
I picked up a coconut Larabar last night while I was at the store perusing the 'bar' aisle --- very tasty - thanks for the tip! :o)
PS - Do you ever go to the Summer Shack? I moved away from Boston 2 years ago, and it's still my fav restaurant... I miss it!
Claudia,
I've actually never been there! But I've heard it's a great place! I'll have to plan a visit soon.
This site http://carrotsandcake.blogspot.com/ helped me a lot, I visit it daily, but I found some useful information here https://bit.ly/34pt8Y8.
