I woke up at 7am, chugged 2 cups of h20 and was at the gym by 7:30.
I did my 20-minute HIIT and let me tell you... It was HARD!!!
Here's my routine:

1 min @ 4.0 (Cool down)
Total time: 21:01
Miles: 2.42
Average HR: 172 (wow, almost 85% of my max!!)
I came home and ate breakfast...
1 container 0% chobani, 1/2 c Kashi Go Lean, small handful blueberries
(I count the Greek yogurt as a protein because its so high in protein and low in carbs)
I spent the morning organizing my google calendar and doing laundry (yuck).
My snack was fab...
Chocolate protein powder + big squishy banana + 8oz h20 + handful of ice= heaven in a cup (and a half!)
Then my little sister proceeded to break my blender.
Poo. Not happy.
1/2 c garbanzos, 1/2 c low fat cottage cheese, ranch seasoning, chopped up tomato and carrots on the side.
My sis and I headed out to Staples for some back-to-school shopping (took WAY too long... giftcard issues, ugh)... and I had this for a snack on the go:
Hershey's Cookies and Creme! I swear!!! Definitely buying this one again!

It didn't hold me until dinner though, I grabbed a small unpictured handful of grapes before cooking.
Dinner was healthy but oh so yummy-
Baby baked sweet potato (love it!), Chicken rubbed with Spike seasoning and cooked in EVOO and chicken broth, sauteed mushrooms, steamed broccoli.
Today's major project was this:


I organized my pantry! Stuff we don't really use at the top, beans/cans/grains in the middle,
breakfast stuff/snacks for my dad and sis on the bottom shelf... oils, dog food and onions/taters (and a large lunch box collection!) on the floor. I love organization!
So it was a great day, clean eating, great exercise and I got a lot done. Oh, and I drank 10 cups of water and didn't even crave lemonade or diet soda!! Yay!
Ok, that's all for now folks. I think for meal # 6 I'll make another protein shake (minus blender... boo....)
