Dear diary

The minute Miles was born, I became officially uncool. Or so my boss says. But nonetheless, I am going to try. And try I will today, joining the community of bloggers for What I Ate Wednesday.

WIAWbutton1

I figured this week was a good week, joining WW and going dairy free, to show you just what I’m eating. Let me rephrase: What I can eat.

Breakfast

P1000990

Oatmeal made with 1/2 cup oats, 1 cup unsweetened vanilla Almond Breeze, banana, pinch of salt, Truvia and 2 tablespoons Kashi Summer Berry granola (though the granola added nothing to it).

Snack

P1000993 

1 cup cherries and a decaf soy latte from Starbucks (unpictured)

Lunch

P1000994

Flour tortilla (gasp!) with spinach and garlic hummus and assorted veggies, carrots and mixed nuts.

Snacks

P1000995 P1000997

1 serving Wheat Thins, a half banana (unpictured and only because it was sitting on the counter next to the Wheat Thins) and PB&J bread – my fave “dessert” of late.

Dinner

P1000998

Veggie skillet with one egg and Cornmeal Pancakes with light syrup.

Snack

P1000999

Stonyfield soy yogurt with 1/4 cup Kashi granola (it actually added something here). BTW, I thought the soy yogurt would be nasty – I bought it only because it was BOGO – but it was surprisingly not repulsive.

What have you been eating lately? Should I do WIAW again?

  1. I thought I was reading a food blog for a minute! Nice pics.

    Keep it up.

    I was also going to suggest you try almond milk. However, my experience is the plain tastes awful, and the vanilla is too sweet. I'm thinking next time I'll buy the plain and then try to add my own sweetener to each serving.

  3. I liked reading what you ate, simply because you don't do it often, so it felt more interesting! When people do it all the time it's often not surprising. But I think once a week it would be really good!

  8. I say yes! I may have to try it myself, too :)

    Also, isn't Miles a great motivator to help you stay healthy?

    In terms of the milk, I've tried making almond or walnut water myself and I really enjoyed the taste.

  9. I love WIAW! Although, I do What I ate Weigh in Day. this keeps me from having a unnecessary "free day". And I forgot about HUMMUS! Thanks for reminding me!
