New dinner recipe

Today was not a good day eating wise.... I got so caught up in having my boyfriend home last night that I forgot to make my breakfast or lunch for today but figured I'd get up early and do it in the morning. Then I woke up and felt like crap! I hit my alarm twice and before you know it had to get out the door...no food in hand. I was carving Mcdonalds so I stopped and got 3 has browns and had them for my breakfast... and that was it. I had a bottle of Propel Zero that I sipped on for the rest of the day. I had no lunch or money for lunch so I just didn't eat.... my stomach didn't really mind because this cough I have is making me super nauseous. I had about 10 wheat thins while the kids were snacking and that was it. I came home and was hungry!! Luckily we had a crock pot meal going...Hawaiian chicken here from sparkpeople. I had one piece with some left over mac and cheese and corn from last night. I also had 2 wedges of babybell for about 100 calories.

My stomach is still not feeling so great and I sound like a dog when I cough...just in time for my boyfriends birthday this weekend. I hate this. We have so many sick kids and most of the parents can't afford to keep their kids home because they have to work. So in turn I ended up getting sick but I can't take time off either because I can't afford it. It's a big viscous circle. I am already in my PJs just relaxing on the couch, I am going to make my breakfast and lunch before I head to bed in a little bit.

I was proud because I turned down ordering lunch out (saving my money!) and a cupcake! I also tried to keep a positive attitude all day and it worked for the most part. So glad tomorrow is Friday and really looking forward to this weekend!

Tonight's picture is of my yummy dinner, the chicken was so tender I loved it! A good way to get in some extra fruit servings!
