Happy hump day kiddies!! This is my second WIAW and I am SO EXCITED to share some of the items I have been chowing on this past week :) First things first, I wanted to share some habits i want to "fall into" this upcoming season. After doing a lot of research and reading I decided I wanted to incorporate more of a plant based diet into my eating habits. Now I do not plan on going vegan/vegetarian by any means and I already chow on some pretty amazing veggies including long time favorites and new veggies I now adore. However, I want to make it an even bigger portion of my day. I think the health benefits I'll gain from doing so will be outstanding and I am so eager to try it out :) Also, i started logging my miles running in hopes to become a runner and participate in a half marathon by spring. Go big or go home right?!
ON TO THE FOOD!!
Above are some new items that I incorporated into my diet. For one, I finally picked up Sunwarrior protein and I absolutely love it. I used it to make Pumpkin Protein Bars :) I also bought an herb goat cheese that is used in the bottom left corner. THat picture consists of a low carb wrap, 3 egg whites, 1 egg with goat cheese, green pepper, tomato, eggplant, and a little RS ketchup. The top left picture is clean mashed sweet potato with nutmeg and cinnamon, baked garlic chicken and roasted eggplant and squash. I also picked up Tazo white tea thanks to reading Kammie's blog at

This above picture is some of my quick little meals at work, along with some frozen yogurt as my Friday night treat :) I cannot go a whole week without my favorite treat! so yummmmmmmy.
I am also a HUGE fan of Little B's blog and I made her pumpkin protein bars that were absolutely delicious and PERFECT for a grab and go at work.
I'd say my eats have been pretty awesome lately! I love trying new things and I love eating clean and cooking! I hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday and stuffs their faces full of delicious healthy awesomeness :) :)
