Post-weekend post (and tuna fish salad)

Well, how's everyone feeling after SuperBowl Sunday? I think the city of Baltimore is on a all-time high. I'm excited to be a part of it! Tomorrow I get to take some pictures of the parade...I'm going to have to layer up because it's probably going to be very cold!

Anyway, I just wanted to drop in and tell you that I saved up all my WW points for SuperBowl Sunday  and was able to eat what I wanted there. I used up the rest of my 'weekly point' allowance (which is totally legit to use for special occasions like these!). I have 2 more days left until the 'new' week begins and I'm doing really great. I doubt I'll even need to use my 'activity' points.

Yesterday was a whirlwind kind of day. I worked out in the morning, cleared the sidewalks and cars of snow, then got a shower, went to Kinko's and then to 2 grocery stores. I didn't get back until about 2:45 or so. And then, I had about an hour to prep food for the week. I peeled and chopped carrots and celery, and then bagged them and a big bag of grapes up into individual portions. Then, I hard-boiled some eggs for snacking, cooked 3 chicken tenders (plain, not breaded) for a homemade chicken salad (I'm replicating Potbelly's Uptown salad because it's delicious!).

Finallllly, I made some tuna fish salad. I substituted Greek yogurt (Fage 0% is my go-to!) for the mayo and it's practically the most awesome thing ever. I always add relish to my tuna fish (passed down from my mom), but a co-worker told me curry seasoning is a really nice spice to use. Anyway, I love-love-love the tuna salad; next time, I'm going to chop up some spinach and mix it in. The tuna is great for dipping with the celery and carrots, too.

All of that preparation took me 45 minutes!! I couldn't believe it. I thought it would take much longer, but not so! I couldn't be more pumped to have healthy foods prepped for the week and to have saved a bunch of time, too! Woo!

Okay, that's all for now. Over and out.
