I tried out Arnold Sandwich Thins for lunch today.  I used the multi-grain flavor and sandwiched turkey, cheese, lettuce, and pickles in between the Thins.  Obviously I had a little bag of Sunchips on the side.  Mmm.  The Thins were great.  They’re thicker than regular slices of bread, but not so heavy that I felt overwhelmed by the carbs.

My poor Honey Crisp apple suffered a fall yesterday morning.  I ate around the bruise.

I went to the gym and watched Superbad while I used the Elliptical for 20 minutes.  I’m working on an article examining the Elliptical as a form of cardio that’s similar to running on a treadmill, but easier on the joints.  After 20 minutes, I was definitely just as sweaty as when I’ve run.  I sat in the sauna for 10 or 15 minutes.  I love my relaxation sessions!

Finally decided to try one of the PowerBars I took home from the Half Marathon.

That snarly face shows that I wasn’t happy with this bar.  It smelled great, but it was too tough and chewy.  It was also really sticky.  The caramel flavor might’ve been good, but the extra protein took away some of the sweetness and made it semi-chalky.  I wouldn’t buy one of these…and I’m not sure what I want to do with the other PowerBars in my drawer.  Yuck!

I made a mishmash of leftovers and fresh foods for tonight’s dinner.  I boiled some wheat pasta and ate that with 3 turkey meatballs, a few spoonfuls of pasta sauce, and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese.  I had a salad with Garlic Vinaigrette dressing and baby carrots with Ranch veggie dip on the side.
