I apologize in advance that I don't have any pictures to post today, it's been a leftover day and so there's not much to report.
For breakfast I had two Blueberry Bran Muffins and Paul had 2 slices of toast and some oatmeal.
Paul came home for lunch and ate 5 pieces of bread. Pearl pretty much attacked him to make him share each slice with her (she's a bread fanatic!). I had an apple for lunch again. I'm not much of a lunch eater but as soon as my favorites (braeburn) stop being stocked in stores I will switch to left-over left-overs or sandwiches. I love bread and it's hard for me to stop at just a couple pieces so it's partly to conserve resources and partly for waist preservation that I avoid it during the day.
Paul ate his sandwich I made him yesterday for a snack.
For dinner we had leftover tuna loaf (there's still a lunch size portion left) and broccoli. I usually don't like broccoli but tonight I found it delicious. AND it's guilt free! Only 25 calories per cup which is amazing!
See? I told you we had boring meals today. It's just as well though. I'm getting sick now- boooooo. I can't afford to be sick. Oh well. We'll see how things go.

Week 2, Day 4
As expected, today was a leftovers day.
This morning we had oatmeal and Paul had a couple eggs and then for lunch there was mulligatawny soup and I had an apple.
Dinner we had an extra. We'd been given a gigantic head of cauliflower a couple weeks ago and I used half for a soup but we hadn't done anything with the other half and it was going to go bad so I roasted it with a little bit of olive oil and some of the dregs of our garlic jar- remind me I need to get some more next time I go shopping. I liked the cauliflower but Paul didn't so there are plenty of leftovers in a bag for me to eat later. The rest of the fajita soup (about 4 cups) has been put in a container and is waiting for Saturday in the freezer.
It was a pretty uneventful day but man am I tired! I really am exhausted and I wish I knew why. I guess it couldn't have anything to do with having a baby who isn't awesome at the whole sleep thing yet and is teething right now, could it? ;) It's 8:30 and Paul is at the school working on another project with SPSS and I think I may just go to bed now. The thought of going to sleep before 9 really freaks me out. I keep thinking, "but I have to do this and this and this!" Chill, self!
Here's today's total:
