Soup A Sandwich: A simple, healthy lunch

Friday, November 7, 2008 18:02 No Comments

I’m going to be cooking later on for dinner, so I wanted to keep lunch prep to a minimum. What could be easier that heating up some soup and putting together a sandwich! Today I had tomato soup - Campbell’s Healthy Choice — and a sandwich with low sodium turkey, low fat muenster, mixed greens, light mayo on whole wheat toast. This is a great lunch when you want to keep the prep time to 5 minutes or less. You really can have “healthy fast food” sometimes. :)

The weather in NYC is still warm - amazing for November! I’m off to take Ollie for a midday walk. Hope everyone is having a great Friday. Weekend is almost here!

Raking Leaves

Friday, November 7, 2008 15:08 No Comments


IMG_2146.JPGMy husband keeps pointing out that the leaves are piling up on the lawn. That can mean only one thing for the family this weekend; it’s time to get out the rakes (and the leaf bags, tarps, and blowers). And while raking leaves may not be on my top 10 ways to spend my Saturday (and probably Sunday too),  I have read that it’s a real calorie burner. Try about 250 calories an hour. Not bad! Have a great weekend:) Go RU!

*If you’re having a rake free weekend and looking for things to do, go to http:// www.fitsugar.com/slideshow/2392207 to see how some of these other fun fall activities (Biking, Horseback Riding, Hiking, In-Line Skating) stack up in the calorie count.

Happy Friday Everyone!
What a week it’s been!
This morning I had a very simple, but balanced, breakfast. I felt like having cereal so I picked some whole grain “O’s” (Trader Joe’s brand) with non fat milk. I also had a low fat yogurt, banana, tea, and some plum juice (yes, plum juice!). I don’t have juice everyday, but it is a great way to stay hydrated and get in additional vitamins and minerals.Today I had PlumSmart plum juice with extra fiber. (A lot of fruit and veggie juices lose the fiber in processing, but they’ve added fiber to this one so you get 3g per serving. It’s very refreshing and also an excellent source of vitamin C.

A Fiber-Filled, One-Dish Meal

Nine grams of fiber and 33 grams of protein is what makes Chicken Thighs with Squash, Yams, and Dried Apricots a super satisfying meal. The squash and yams is what helps contribute to the high fiber content and it is…

I was supposed to post my article today on recognizing what fitness level you are at, but my current adventures have led me to another topic to discuss for today… I am at my last conference of the year way…
