Weigt is stalling right about 134.6 (my scale rounds everything to even decimals – I never get an odd decimal, so weird), I think I am hitting a plateau. Any suggestions on pushing through it? Was talking with hubby this morning, he suggested switching up my cardio, which is exactly what I was thinking. I am going to try to work in more elliptical training, and vary my treadmill routine more. The yoga has been good, but I am just using up the final session on my package, I don’t think I will buy another package. And I should do the Jillian Michaels – 30 Day Shred video again.

For breakfast I had a smoothie! I don’t remember the last time I had a smoothie, but I saw this recipe in Oxygen magazine’s Glutes special issue and thought I should try it.

“Green” Smoothie

• 1/2 cup spinach (I steamed it in the microwave for a minute and half to get maximum nutritional benefits)
• 1/2 cup mixed frozen berries
• 1/3 fat free plain Greek yogurt
• 1 scoop protein powder (i have a plethora of BSN’s Banana cream, so I used that)
• 1/4 cup skim milk

Place all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth. The smoothie isn’t actually green – it was more dark blue/purple from the blueberries and blackberries. Next time I am going to add some Chia seeds for added nutrition

11:10am – just ate some of the trail mix from the break room – bad Abby. Especially because I also had some of the imitation crab meat I brought from home to snack on (weird I know, but it was past its sell by date, and its good protein)

4:23pm – just downed a Kombucha - 60 calories (sugar) but so worth it. At least my 3pm meal was light – egg whites with veggies (under 150 calories), and a couple nuts. 10 days until Cancun, gotta keep focused!
