Back to School

We're back to a school schedule after a two week break.

I kept the meals simple and familiar so we could focus on getting into a routine.

Breakfast: oatmeal, fruit, and pb for the children, Breakfast bowl for me
Lunch: Taco lentils, served on a bed of spinach for me (we adjusted the recipe to add more lentils and less brown rice)
Dinner: Romaine and spinach topped with a mix of onion, corn, garlic, black beans, mushrooms and salsa

I took the children to the lake this afternoon. We brought along peanuts, carrot sticks, and peaches.  One thing I really like about nutritarian focus is how easy snacks are.  We often would have these for snacks before, but not it's just so nice to have something easy and simple with all the new meal prep I do lately.

I didn't get in any exercise today aside from running around to various stores before we went to the lake.  I'm on my second day of my cycle and feeling tired.  Yesterday I had a bit of a headache after church.  That's it, though. No cramping at all. I really am starting to believe that eating plant-strong is making a big difference in this area.

Oh, I weighed in this morning and was down again.  That was a nice way to start the week. :)
