What I Eat in a Day: At Home Doing School Work

Today got off to a slow start, I'm not going to lie. I spent most of the day doing school work, studying, and helping Jake prepare for his interview.

Breakfast:
First thing I do when I wake up is drink a large glass of plain ice water (no mio, sweet drops, sweeteners, etc) and then take my medicine. Then I have my breakfast.
I was going so slow this morning so I decided to make coffee. I used to drink coffee every morning but now I only drink it when I really need it, and this morning I did. I realized this morning that we no longer had any creamer so I made my coffee by:

Half coffee
Half coconut milk
Peppermint stick

I tend to hoard peppermint sticks and candy canes during the winter and then use them throughout the year. They come in handy.

I also had a plain white bagel with natural peanut butter on top.

Snack:
I had a snack right around lunch time as I was on a roll with school and wanted to keep going. I had some cashews which were delicious.


Lunch:
For lunch I decided to have some leftovers since our fridge is full of them. I had some veggie tacos with a side of a rice mixture I made.

Tacos:
Veggie taco meat
Lettuce
Lots of tomatoes
Brown rice
Some taco sauce

Rice mixture:
Brown rice
Left over lettuce
Left over tomato
Tad bit of taco sauce


Dinner:
For dinner I was wanting some Mexican food (yes I know this isn't authentic Mexican food) so I got myself two burritos and ate those while watching Battlestar Galactica. In the burritos I had:

Rice
Beans
Lettuce
Tomatoes
Pico de Gallo
Guacamole

That was what I had to eat. I know it isn't very healthy but it could have been worse. I am going to be doing a green smoothie cleanse this coming week as well so tonight isn't so bad when you think about that.

My First Day at GNC

Well today was my first day at GNC. When I asked for my days off she seemed understanding because I brought it up on the first day. However, my probation period is ninety days and I'm not allowed to use the cash register and I'm taking tests and training the whole time. So by the time I'm planning to leave and start working in a Fitness Facility I would still be on probation. I feel bad for only staying with them such a short time and them investing training into me. I'm wondering how long this will last. I plan to stick it out for a while and see how it goes. I'm not worrying about it because I know God has great plans for me and I just have to trust Him. I have applied for ten fitness facility positions on post this week and this weekend I will be applying to fitness facilities in the city that I am in. Hopefully something comes through and I can start putting my schooling and passion to use!

So Many Changes

During my last post I was still doing my externship at a veterinary clinic near me. Since then, I have been hired as a veterinary technician! I have been loving this job. It's been stressful but has been so rewarding.  My goals lately have been some smaller ones such as getting better at blood draws (I have hit 100% of my veins in the last 3 weeks!), triple checking invoices, and getting all my charts completed by the end of the day. When I feel that I have improved enough I will start training in surgery. That's my goal anyway. Then, once I start training in surgery and become a surgery tech I can start working towards my goal of becoming a critical care technician.  I have progressed in my career but I have also progressed in my personal life as well.  I have finally hit my goal weight since getting off my birth control and getting the Paragard. Now my next goal is to build more muscle, gain endurance, and become more flexible again. I have also started can...

Mexican Cruise Day 1: Los Angeles, California

We left home Friday evening with plenty of time to spare to get there early Saturday morning, find parking, get checked in, etc. Before we left town we stopped at one of my favorite restaurants and got supper. After hitting the road we went through Tucson and Phoenix with no issues.  After a rest stop in Phoenix with bathroom breaks and stocking up on food and water we were set to drive across the desert with no stops for at least a few hours. About one hour into the desert (1am) we got a flat tire! A nail was left on the side of the road and punctured our tire. Thankfully my Dad was with us. Jake and my Dad managed to get the doughnut on the car. We tried calling AAA but there was an accident and the person coming to help us got flagged down by the police to help out.  After getting the spare on we tried finding a tire shop that was open 24 hours. There wasn't one within 100 miles! We drove to the closest one and then they had to help someone else out so n...
