Salmon Awesomeness

I really never thought I'd say something like that but truly, the salmon was exceptional.  And it was beautiful.  I should have taken a picture.  I must give credit where credit is due.  I found this on Pintrest and we will for sure be making it again (the picture should link it, let me know if not).  I got a half pound filet and the hubs and I split it.  He asked me if that was all the fish I bought and if I had just gotten it for myself but I told him we were working on portioning.  No one starved.

And then we had this broccoli.  Again, amazing and only olive oil and sea salt.

We had some baklava for dessert I picked up from the Farmer's Market.  All in all, I rounded out the day as follows:

Carbs: 4/6
Protein: 6/6
Fruit: 2/3
Fat: 4/3
Veggies: 2

I felt good yesterday.  I didn't feel like I was starving and felt pretty in control all day.  Also, no headache, so not sure what that was all about on Tuesday. 

The baby is fighting a nap at the moment.  I'm waiting for him to go to sleep before I go outside to water the flowers/herbs and thinking about my first snack for the day.  It'll probably be a repeat of that oatmeal.  Though, I may need to do the oatmeal for lunch as something quick since we have Gymboree today.  We will see.  I'll keep you in the loop. 

I jumped on the scale today (not when I first got up, but after I'd eaten a yogurt and had a good bit of water) and was 2 lbs over my pre-pregnancy weight.  That's not displeasing to me.  But seriously, try that salmon and broccoli.  I'll bet you'll be as excited as I was!
