Monday Menu Share and Pumpkin Oatmeal


Happy Monday everyone!  The start of a new week!  I will admit I have had a rough past few days.  My eating has been fine, but I hadn't worked out since last Wednesday.  I had been struggling with migraines and finally broke down yesterday and went to the ER to get some IV meds.  I am feeling much better today and actually walked 4.4 miles.  YAY!!!  It is amazing how much better I feel when I get activity into my day!

This morning I made pumpkin pie oatmeal.  It was YUMMY!!!!  Anyone who knows me knows I am a pumpkin addict!  I used 1 1/2 cups of water and once it was boiling I added 1/2 cup of pure pumpkin and 1/2 cup quick cook oats.  Cooked for one minute.  Poured into bowl and added 1 tbsp of brown sugar, 2 tsp canola oil (that is a weight watcher thing), stevia. cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice to taste.  It made a huge bowl and was 7 points+ (5 if you omit the oil).

So here is the menu for the week (not fancy at all this week)

Monday: ate at Bob Evans for Matty Moo's birthday with Papaw Lanny and Mamaw LaDonna
Tuesday: Taking Matty Moo to a restaurant of his choice for his birthday.
Wednesday: Mexican Chicken Rice Bake (First time for this.  If it is good, I will share the recipe)
Thursday: Whatever hubby gets us because I have an eye specialist appointment and will probably get a shot.
Friday: Baked Salmon, Baked potatoes and a veggie
Saturday: White Chicken Chili
Sunday: Eating Leftovers

I have a few days to catch up on.  I have decided to only blog through the week and take weekends to spend with my family!

November 16: Today I am thankful for my nephew, Logan.  He is a goofball and makes me laugh!

November 17: Today I am thankful for my nephew, Mac.  Even though we are 2 hours apart, I love watching his videos and watching him grow into a funny, smart kid.

November 18: Today I am thankful for my Mamaw!  She has been such an influence on my life and I love her very much!

Finally, I am in love with the Runtastic Pro app.  I love the live feature.  When people like it, the app cheers me on!!!  So cool!

That is all for now!

Keep Losing,
Kari
