-1
Yup, that’s right. It felt like -1 outside today according to the wind chill – what is up with that?! I was quite scared to go outside since the temperature on the local news said it was 10 degrees outside and the coldest day in 5 years. I went out and warmed up my car for a good 10-12 minutes or so, so it wouldn’t be as bad!
I was craving cold cereal today, but knew oats were my best bet on a chilly day… After eating this bowl, I was glad I chose oatmeal! It included half a cup of oats cooked with 3 tbsp Egg White Beaters. I topped it with ground flax, chopped fresh strawberries, chopped mixed nuts (primarily almonds and hazelnuts), and a drizzle of honey!
In this new job, I am in meetings literally ALL day, but they aren’t face to face, which is taking some getting used to. I have no human interaction at all, except for on the phone. It’s a completely different situation than what I was in before and it’s taking some getting used to!
Breakfast held me over until 11:30, so I just ate my lunch then. I only had one slice of double fiber bread left (need to shop), so I made a pb&j out of that. I folded it in half, for packing purposes. On the side, I had a Honeycrisp.
I am planning on getting done work around 2:30 and heading to my parents’ house because my mom and I have an appointment to get our nails done at 4pm :) I was never a “get your nails done” kind of girl until I got married and now it’s a nice way to “bond” w/ my mom! On my drive there, I plan on having a Clif Z Bar…
I’m not quite sure what’s on the horizon after that. I’m taking the day off (I think) from the gym to rest up since I’ve been feeling quite tired & sleepy lately. Anyway, I’ll be back w/ dinner later tonight or tomorrow depending on what we actually do!
Happy Friday!!!

I wish I could find other flavor z bars, all I have around here is the brownie and pb, although pb is amazing, it’d be nice to try some other kinds. Have a great Friday and stay warm.
