It’s been a long time since I’ve participated in What I Ate Wednesday and it feels good to be back! My last WIAW post was in June, which feels like an eternity ago given everything that’s been going on here lately.
This was a fairly typical day of eating for me, although it’s lower in protein than I’d like. Now that I’m (slowly) getting back into strength-training, I need to get back to my higher-protein habits. As is often the case lately, I indulged in lots of carbs and ate dessert (small desserts!) not once but twice. It’s safe to say I’m thoroughly enjoying the extra calorie burn of breastfeeding!
Let’s get to it:
Breakfast: Cheerios and strawberries
Lunch: Salad with romaine, carrots, bell peppers, feta, croutons and Italian dressing
Snack #1: String cheese and Triscuit crackers
Snack #2: Almonds and cashews
Dinner: Easy Skillet Lasagna- this was awesome
Not pictured: Peanut Butter Oreos (how long have these been around? why am I just discovering them now??); 2 after lunch, 2 after dinner.
Thanks to Jenn for hosting another WIAW. Join the fun at her site!

Welcome, I'm Kristen! I'm a 20-something mother of two working to make exercise and healthy eating a simpler and more enjoyable part of life. I love lifting, running, being outdoors and enjoying food in all it's healthy and not-so-healthy forms. I believe that happiness is as essential to 'healthy living' as exercise and vegetables - that's why I never turn down dessert! Connect With Me!
PEANUT BUTTER OREOS?!?!? Where do you find such things?!??!
I found them at my regular supermarket, but I bet Target has them, too. Be warned: they are AMAZING!
love the big bowl of cheerios!
Probably my favorite cereal
LOVE PB Oreos. Haven’t had them in quite sometime. I actually don’t buy them because I can’t keep my hands outta the bag, haha.
Hmmm so they’ve been around for a while then? Hard to believe I ever lived without them!
