Falling Off the Wagon

Hello World,
My name is Jessica and I have fallen off the Healthy Living Bandwagon.  *Sigh*  I did a terrible job this week of trying to maintain a healthy eating regimine while trying to start packing stuff at my apartment.  I was attempting to follow Tina's (from Carrots'N'Cake) Eat It, Don't Move It plan, but instead of coming up with creative and healthy dishes with the items I currently have, I just spend WAY TOO much money on take out.*Sigh*

Thursday
Breakfast:

Two frozen waffles (I don't know what brand they are as Marcin bought them) with my Cream Cheese Substitue spread.

I stayed true to my coffee detox and had peppermint tea.

The tea was actually very good.  I was trying to find peppermint green tea because it's better for your digestive system, but this is a good alternative.

Work went on as usual and it came time for lunch.  Mind you I packed a breakfast but not a lunch (again!). 
I decided to F.I.N.A.L.L.Y. try the Steamed Chicken and Mixed Vegetables from Lucky Kitchen. 

It was everything that I hope that it would be add more!  I ordered a side of General Tso's sauce, but i used it as more of a dipping sauce then drenching the food with it. 

The rest of the work day went on without a hitch.  I even got through a big meeting unscathed!  I think it was because I went into the meeting overly prepared.

After work, I stopped by the house to pick up more boxes to move my stuff.  I went home and started to destroy the place.  I obviously did not take pictures out of embarassment!  I now have a pile (or rather a big tub!) of stuff to take to the house today (Friday), a pile to donate to good will, and a pile to throw out.  Hopefully I will be able to find time during the weekend to do all three. . . or at least the stuff to the house and the stuff to throw out!

My friend Zahra came over to help me.  We stopped by a Coney Island to grab a L.A.T.E. dinner.  I had a grilled chicken pita to which i devoured out of starvation before i could remember to take a picture! 

Friday:
Breakfast:

I also fell off the Coffee Detox bandwagon!  But due to a late night of talking and packing, I needed a pick me up!  Enter Starbucks brew of the day - Komodo Dragon Blend.  Holy Strong Coffee Batman!  I needed it, but for the rest of the weekend . . .tea!

It's now 11:30 am I have only had coffee!  I did bring snacks but it's cookies, and fig newton, and an orange . .that's not going to make for a filling lunch!  I will think of something, and something healthy!

On the healthy living front:
Well, like I said, it's been a terrible week of eating.  I will need to regroup.  I decided to just spend one day to pack my apartment and plan my workouts and meals accordingly.  Wish me luck, because I will need it!

On the fashion front:
Thursday's outfit:

I finally got the big belted look down.  I bought an stretchable big belt on my Sunday's excursion with Rachelle in Royal Oak.

It was actually comfortable.  I didn't feel like I was going to keel over for lack of breathing!

April's Purse:
I K.N.O.W. you are excited about this!

This is my Hobo/crossbody bag that I was obsessing over since December!  Wewll actually, the first one I found was $285.00 at this boutique in Ann Arbor.  I found this bag (for $30.00!) at my favorite boutique in Downtown Plymouth!  I love all the pockets and the fact that I could carry like a hobo or have use it like a crossbody during shopping excursions!

Well, it's a beautiful 80 degree weather day in good old Michigan, I'm going to go out and enjoy it as I venture to find lunch!  Have a good weekend lovlies!
