What I Ate Wednesday

Today, I'm linking up for "What I Ate Wednesday" hosted by Peas and Crayons.

I didn't make anything in the crock pot this week, but I did grab some pre cooked chicken at Trader Joes to throw on my salads.

Love this chicken!!!

We've also been having protein pancakes for breakfast. Seriously, these things are delic!!! They are from Tone It Up and they are the perfect breakfast item. They really do keep you full in the morning because its full of protein and fruit and such, and its gluten free :) the recipe can be found on their website here.

I love to top mine with Raw Agave Syrup. Much better for you than maple syrup (according to TIU at least!).

I can't finish this post without admitting I've had dessert lately. Like almost every day. Fro yo with a friend Friday..... Ice Dream cup from Chick Fil A last night.... Yikes! If I wasn't running so much it would sneak up.

I didn't post last Friday for Lose 5 lbs in February, but as of Monday, I am down 2 lbs and currently at 123.5. I have to remember to take a snapshot this week (although it may be ugly with all my sweets!!!!).

Anything new you are eating this week or recipes to share?!! Link up!

February Finds

Happy February! 

Although today was the first day of February, it felt nothing like it outside. We had temps in the upper 50's today! Thankfully, the big storm that's hitting most of the US didn't hit Lexington. BUT we did get rain. ALL DAY. I can't imagine how much snow we would have had if the temps were cooler!

February is one of my favorite months. I love it because you get to wear lots of pink!!! And because it's a short month and usually flies by fast. My inbox was full of some February finds that I am currently loving. 

First, this new lilly background. LOVE!

And another great find from Pure Barre Lexington! Definitely taking advantage of this deal! 

It's as easy as 1, 2, 3!!

It's a "Sweat"heart of a deal!!

Our Special February Price:

$30 for 3 class package

(Regular Price: $60)

I highly recommend taking a pure barre class. I was hesitant at first because I heard they were pretty intense and I thought I would feel way out of place taking a class with all of the pb experts in there. I was WAY WRONG. At my first class, the instructor came over and helped my friend I through every move and even talked to us afterward! She was so sweet and made the experience so much better. We even got a postcard in the mail from her a few days later. I have only taken several classes since my first class in November, but all the workers at PB are so nice and willing to help you before, during and after class.

Another great email list to be on is from Ashley Brooke Designs. She sends an email out at the beginning of each month with a free download for your iPhone or Blackberry. I always download these and use them as my screen saver. So cute and very useful!

A local favorite - The Front Porch. I love this store because they always hand out a coupon each time you shop there. They just started sending out emails with links for coupons! I can always find something at this store, even if it's just a tervis tumbler with my intital, I will buy it. You can never have enough monogrammed glasses!

I will defintely be going in the next few weeks to use this coupon! 

And finally, some Valentine's Day gift ideas for guys. Thank goodness for emails from Brooks Brothers! I will most likely be visiting BB for some v-day gifts for Ben!
