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

Image
By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
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.

I Love My Coffee

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
I love coffee. I don't necessarily NEED to have it. I even stopped drinking it for a while and just had tea but I love the taste of it. I used to drink Starbucks all the time but now I make my coffee at home. When it started to get hot here I stopped drinking my coffee in the morning because hot coffee and hot weather was just too much for me. Then I realized I should just make iced coffee! I have a couple recipes I have been using lately and would love to write them. Some of them are healthy and some of them, not so much. Vanilla Creme: Half Coffee Half 1% milk (or coconut milk) Drops of Vanilla Creme SweetLeaf Stevia Drops  to taste Chocolate Raspberry: Half Coffee Half 1% milk (or coconut milk) Drops of Chocolate Raspberry SweetLeaf Stevia Drops  to taste Iced Mocha Coffee: Half Coffee Half 1% milk (or coconut milk) A couple squirts of Hershey's Sugar Free Chocolate Syrup You can basically make it anyway you want to. I would love to get the flavors of Hazelnut, Pumpkin S...

So Many Changes

By Rebecca Duerrwaechter
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...
