The past few days have been really busy at work, that’s why I haven’t been blogging appropriately!  But really not that interesting.  The most interesting thing?  Probably that my shower had a clog.  But I bought. drumroll please…. DRANO!  Actually I think it was Liquid Plumber, but same thing ya know.   You are supposed to use half the bottle to get rid of a clog, and let it sit for 15 min.  I did that once, but it didn’t get rid of it!  So I dumped in the rest of the bottle and it worked.  So it must have been a hell of a clog, that puppy required a whole bottle of drano!  But I am very happy because it was less than 24 hours of showering with 4 inches of dirty, disgusting water around my feet and it was super gross.  I felt like I came out of the shower dirtier than I went in…

My eats have been ok, I wish a little healthier.  I need to stop buying foods that I love but that I know are trigger foods, for example:  pudding.  I love pudding, but I cannot just eat one pudding cup.  I buy 4, I eat 4.  I buy 6, I eat 6.  So yeah, I ate 6 pudding cups (but am only putting a picture of one, ha.)

I’m doing great with fruit – Today I had 1 nectarines and a pint of blueberries:

For dinner tonight, I had something yummy.  A few weeks ago, I got a coupon for a free Gardein product.  I bought the Santa Fe Good Stuff and finally decided to try them.  I just heated them up in the microwave, and ate them on top of some angel hair pasta tossed with tomato sauce and a wedge of laughing cow cheese, and threw in some steamed broccoli and mozzarella cheese.  It was delicious!  I definitely recommend this Gardein product, and look forward to trying some more of them.

I got another new product that I was TOTALLY stoked to try.  I heard about this Arctic Zero frozen treat and, as an ice cream fanatic, thought it definitely had to be too good to be true.  A whole pint for 128 calories?!?!  Yeah, must taste like frozen chocolate mudwater.  It is ridiculously expensive, and Amazon is the only place that I know of to buy it from right now, but I really wanted to try it so I sucked it up and bought some.  Oh man, this stuff is freaking incredible.  I got chocolate flavor and chocolate peanut butter flavor, and tonight I had the chocolate:

It is seriously so good.  Creamy – not like chocolate ice like I expected.  First I made myself a bowl of it on with a Kashi Happy Trail mix cookie crumbled on top:

And then, you know you saw this one coming, I ate the whole pint.  But it’s ok, because it was only 128 calories!  Too bad it was like $8!!!!    Here is a snapshot of the nutritional info, in case you don’t believe me:

It even has 4 g of protein in 1/2 cup, which I like.  Yes, I have a new obsession.

Snackeroos included cereal, cottage cheese, almonds, and soy chips.  I opened a new bag of Safeway Eating Right soy chips, and I thought that they tasted a little bit different that usual, but kept eating them.  When I finished the bag, I went to throw it away and noticed that I got the Sea Salt flavor (while I usually get the Sour Cream and Onion).  They were pretty good – I probably would have never bought that flavor intentionally… I tend to be a creature of habit and if its not broken, why fix it…. so it was nice that I got to try them even if it was accidental.  I might even get them again some time! 

Ok, time to declog.
