Woohoo! Wednesday is just about over- I am so happy to be one step closer to the three day weekend! I have some plans that I am seriously excited about. Writing this WIAW is a bit sad for me..as the last time I posted a WIAW I was busy staring at Justin Timberlake’s butt in the same day. Sigh. Today was rather normal, starting with breakfast.
most important meal of the day!
Uncle Sam’s cereal with chocolate almond milk and PB. Seriously..this tasted like cocoa krispies!
desktop salad
I had to make a quick run to the grocery store before work and decided I could splurge on a Harris Teeter salad bar lunch. Grilled chicken, eggs, cottage cheese..can you tell I’m amping up the protein here?
And with lunch… some white chocolate chips. I needed my sweet fix!
curbing cravings
I’ve made 2pm my designated snack time, I’m usually starving by then. (I eat lunch at 11am..grandma status.)
chicken of the sea
Tuna mixed with Smart Beat mayo (I’m telling you- SO good) + spicy brown mustard.
Post work I hit up the gym to complete 10 minutes of HIIT on the treadmill and 20 minutes of ellipticalling to the Kardashians. Nothing too intense- just wanted to get my butt moving on some cardio since I’ve been focusing more on weights lately!
Dinner was a lazy one- whole wheat pasta with chicken sausage and jarred (DON’T TELL MY MOM) sauce with spinach. I’m a bad, bad Italian girl today. The shame.
faux italiano
Right now I’m sippin’ on some water but let’s be real here, I’m sure I’ll have a glass of wine soon. I told myself I’d cut back on my week time wine consumption but Danny brought a giant bottle home for me post work Monday…that boy. Cheers!

Your meals look yummy!! And my husband is Italian and currently shaking his finger at the jarred sauce. Unless it’s muir glen. Then you’re fine.
Oh NOOO! Don’t tell my people LOL. I’ve never heard of that ill have to check it out! My mom takes hours to make her sauce (or “gravy”) and cooks it with bones and stuff…she would shake her finger too!
I always use jarred marinara – whoops. Gotta good recipe I could try out?
I’ll ask my mom 🙂
I always used jarred pasta sauce, too…. buuuut then again, I’m zero percent German. 😉
Do me a favor and send me some homemade sauce when you get around to making some 😛 I use jarred 97% of the time. It’s easier!!
P.S. I always get super confused when I see you eating meat and then I’m like “Oh yeah, it’s Courtney who’s a vegetarian!”
I’m a jarred sauce kinda girl. I used to make my own sauce all the time but now I’m too lazy to do it. Jarred is just so easy! And kinda delicious!
HT has a great salad bar. Yum.
Ohh I’ve never thought to use the chocolate almond milk but it sounds like a good idea!! I bet it would be great in smoothies 🙂 And I always use jarred sauce… haha it wouldn’t even occur to me to make one!
Oh, don’t worry, you’re not a bad Italian! Pretty sure I spied a JAR of sauce in the kitchen when I was staying with a family in ITALY. I told myself it was probably just there for when the parents were out and the kids wanted a little somethin’ somethin’.
O0o0 love the white chocolate chips! That pasta looks amazing
