What I Ate Wednesday

Posted on July 18, 2012 by heatherlauraclarke

Wow, I FINALLY remembered to take pictures of everything I ate for one entire day. Doesn’t sound that hard, but I sure as heck couldn’t remember for the life of me.

Ready to see everything I ate yesterday? Of course you are! Let’s go …

Breakfast: One egg hardboiled in my neato microwave contraption, one English Muffin with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter, orange juice, and de-caf tea (with skim milk) in my special mug (which was painted by Best Friend as a Christmas gift about a thousand years ago)

Lunch: Homemade pita chips, salsa, garlic hummus, and a mix of tomatoes, green peppers, red peppers, and green onions. I like to put some hummus on a chip, scoop up vegetables, and the dip in salsa. It’s a messy but delicious process.

Afternoon snack: Green apple slices, four pieces of melba toast spread with two wedges of Laughing Cow Light cheese (two of my obsessions I blogged about last week)

Dinner: Quesadilas made from two small whole-wheat tortillas, chicken, corn, tomatoes, green peppers, red peppers, green onion, salsa, and 20 grams of marble cheese. Served with salsa and tbsp. sour cream. Mmmmmm.

Did you always like all of those things or have you learned to like them through your weight loss challenge?

Good question! I always liked the breakfast foods and dinner food, but that is DEFINITELY not a lunch I would have ever eaten before joining Weight Watchers. Now I love hummus and pita chips, and I eat peppers way more often than I did before. Oh, and the Laughing Cow cheese and melba toast are also brand-new foods for me (that I now eat just about every day).

Any other new, WW-approved favourites?

Hmmm, those are definitely the biggies. I've been eating a LOT of salsa and bell peppers, and basically every dinner I make is vaguely Mexican (so I can add salsa, haha). I think I need to start branching out more!

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m writer living in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have a 11-year-old son and a nine-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep it from taking over my life. Making things isn’t just a hobby — it’s part of what keeps me alive.

Whether I’m writing novels, decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes for my kids, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

I’ve been writing this blog since 2009, so if you dig deep into the archives, you’ll meet a bright-eyed 25-year-old newlywed who was basically obsessed with having kids, buying a cozy house, and supporting herself full-time as a writer. (Spoiler alert: she got exactly what she wanted.)
