So much to post, so little time :)
Today was pretty good, except for me almost passing out at the doctor’s office – oops! I am not good with needles or other not-fun things and I just got really hot today and felt like I was going to pass out. Thank goodness I didn’t, but that is never fun. The good thing is my stomach is doing a bit better! The pills are working and I’m hoping Nick and I will both be back to normal by the end of the week.
So, I have almost an entire’s day worth of food to post!
Before my doctor’s appointment, I had one of the blueberry chia muffins.
Still good, but I think I like them better heated up a little bit. I love the flavor, though.
Went to the doctor, paid $35 and left with a cup of water and a lollipip to get my sugar back up? I didn’t eat it – it was a gross flavor dum-dum and not my favorite (cream soda dum-dums are the best!)
Lunch was kind of random and thrown together, but it tasted good! I wasn’t sure how this would be when I packed everything up, but I liked the combination.
I brought 2 slices of my flax seed bread and brought a bunch of toppings:
- 1 wedge laughing cow cheese
- sauteed portobello slices
- leftover roasted asparagus
- sliced avocado
This was good! The asparagus was a little hard to eat so I think I would cut them into smaller pieces next time, but I loved the cheese with the mushrooms/asparagus/avocado. I ate the rest of the leftover asparagus that I couldn’t fit on the sandwich, too :)
Plus some other “sides”:
a nice crispy apple
and a small handful of pretzels – about half a serving, probably?
I felt a lot better after eating lunch – that seemed to get me back to normal after my almost-fainting incident.
I really liked this lunch, but it was lacking in protein and I was feelin’ it this afternoon. I was so hungry!
I had about 2 Tbsp of crunchy pb and about 1.5 cups or something ridiculous of celery. Yum.
Around 4:30 today, the skies decided to open and just dump all the water they were holding! All of a sudden, there was this huge crack of thunder and then you could hear the rain pouring down on the building. Of course, I left my rain jacket in the car at lunch since it was all nice and sunny at noon today – I got soaked just walking from the office door to the car door! It rained really hard the entire way home and finally let up a bit by the time we got to the chiropractor. Everything went well there, but she had to use the hammer tool thing on my neck and I hate that thing.
We ran to the store after the appointment for mroe bread for Nick and some chocolate chips for a baking project tonight :) It smells amazing! I can’t wait to try it.
Even though I wasn’t sure how this meal would be on my stomach, Nick asked me if I wanted New River Grille, so we went there for dinner.
I didn’t get my normal, but I did still get onion rings – you just have to get them here! They’re so good! I got the blackened flounder with onion rings and green beans. Not the healthiest dinner, but it was good and just what I wanted. And I’m still feeling good!
I’ve got to get my lunch packed for tomorrow before I forget!
Make sure to tune in for the second Honduras post tomorrow morning :)

Those onion rings look amazing!!
I hate needles too!
My favorite things? Grainy bread, asparagus, mushrooms and avocado…that sandwich looked perfect to me :)
As for the classic Dum-Dum, it’s been so freaking long since I’ve had candy that I’m not sure what’s out there now. However, I would have to go with watermelon or strawberry. What’s up with that mystery flavor?
I love Banana flavor. That sandwich makes my mouth water and I will def have to try it sometime!
Ughh I’ve almost fainted a few times too. I wanted to be a doctor when I was in high school, but that unfortunate reaction to needles and blood sealed the deal. :P
I love the cream soda Dum-Dums too! I also like cherry, root beer, and that mystery flavor.
I love onion rings and those look AMAZING!!
My favorite dumdum flavor is probably root beer or a fruit flavor. I don’t eat them much but I do indulge every now and again.
Asparagus on a sandwich? Loves it!
Is that a gala apple? Crispy, sweet apples are definitely my fav!
I haven’t had a dum dum sucker in ages, but watermelon was always my favorite! ;)
That sandwich looks absolutely amazing! I need to go buy some portabello mushrooms stat.
Wow, that sandwich looks incredible! I love portobello mushrooms. Glad your stomach is feeling a bit better :)
My favorite dum-dum flavor is watermelon! No question about it :D Root beer is delicious too, though.
Hope you guys are feeling 100% soon!
Root beer is my favorite!
That sandwich sounds fabulous girl!!!! yumo.
my fav dum-dum flavor would be rootbeer. I don’t eat them often, but thats a pretty solid flavor
I love the mystery flavor! I haven’t had Dum-Dums in forever!!! My doctor never gives me treats anymore :-(
I HATE needles too. Ahh. I haven’t had a dum-dum in gosh knows how long…I can’t even remember the flavors…sad!!!! I think I used to like rootbeer or something???
