5 Week Challenge… Day 13

I got in a 4.5 mile walk yesterday morning, and a Jazzercise class in the afternoon. Look at that beautiful blue sky!

Sunday night, I placed a big pitcher of water in the fridge with cucumber and lemon slices. This was super refreshing when I got home from my sunny warm walk yesterday morning! I don’t mind plain water at all, I actually really like it, but this was a nice little treat.

Let me talk about this bread for just a second. I have been buying it and talking about it for a while now. If you’re new to the blog, and you like crusty warm garlic bread, then you need to know about this bread. It is sold in the freezer in the healthy food section of my grocery store, and I would imagine that’s where you will find it in your store as well. It’s crusty on the outside (super crusty) but soft on the inside, and just the right amount of buttery garlic. You know what else??? Two slices of this bread is 3 PointsPlus! Dip it in your marinara. Eat it with a Big Salad for dinner. Dip it in your soup. Just eat it!

You can even click HERE and see if it is sold in your area by entering your zip code!

(This is not a paid advertisement. I just really like this bread you guys.)

Lunch – 9 PPV

Leftover Salmon and Chicken from my Kabobs the night before along with some leftover roasted cauliflower. I also mashed a small Cooked Sweet Potato, smashed up some Avocado with lime juice and sea salt like I like to do, and with the salmon, this lunch was possibly better than dinner the night before….if that’s even possible.
