Wow, this week seems to be racing by! I can’t believe it’s already Wednesday.
I’ve been doing really well with eating healthy lately and I was particularly impressed with my Sunday eats, which is what you’re seeing today. Usually I get hungry pretty easily and am constantly snacking (healthily) throughout the day. Since I’ve been working on portion control and just not eating quite so much in general, I think my body is finally getting used to eating a little bit less. So, even though on Sunday I had breakfast at 8am, lunch at 1:30pm, and dinner at 7pm, I didn’t snack at all in between meals… because I wasn’t even hungry!
This makes me so happy 
#1: Breakfast
Three sunny-side up eggs (only because I apparently lost the ability to flip my eggs) on whole-wheat unbuttered toast with a glass of orange juice that had 4 tsp of fiber powder (6g) in it.
Un-pictured: 1 cup of coffee with 2 packets of Splenda & 2 tbsp of Cinnabon creamer.
#2: Lunch
Mashed sweet potato: (1) Peel & cube two sweet potatoes, (2) boil sweet potatoes in salted water until very tender, (3) mash with potato masher, (4) season with salt, pepper, cinnamon, and 2 tbsp Splenda Brown Sugar Blend.
PERFECTION.
#3: Dinner
Slow Cooker Enchilada Soup… recipe coming soon! You’re not gonna want to miss this one!! It was soooo tasty and both Brent and I really, really liked it. It was perfect for a cozy, snowy night
#4: Dessert
Just because I’m eating very healthy doesn’t mean that I don’t get to sneak in a little bit of dessert 
Especially when that dessert is my favorite Ben & Jerry’s flavor — Chunk Monkey — that was on sale for $2.99!!!
Hi! Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog. I'm Miranda, I love books, and I'm more than a little bit obsessed with goats.
I recently graduated with a degree in English from the University of Rhode Island and now I'm working as an editorial assistant at a publishing company, which is pretty much my dream job!
Oh yeah, and I'm also handicapped. But I'm not letting that stop me from doing what I love! Here's what you'll find on my blog -- tons of awesome recipes, stories about my relationship, details on my in-progress weight loss, and so much more!

It’s seriously the best. And it was so filling, too, which is awesome.
Yum, soup looks good! I need a slow cooker!!
You really do!! I just recently got mine a couple of months ago and I absolutely love it. I use it ALL THE TIME.
dessert in moderation is key, I think that if you deprive yourself of things it will only come back to bite you with a huge craving later on.

Me too! I can’t get enough of them lately. Normally I only have two for breakfast, but I was REALLY hungry when I woke up, haha.
Sweet potato mash is THE BEST!

I know! I can’t wait to go buy some more sweet potatoes so I can make it again, haha
I totally want eggs for breakfast now!! Thanks for the thinspiration
I’ve been obsessed with having eggs for breakfast lately! They’re such good sources of protein… especially with whole wheat bread, too!
Eating healthy is all about balance right??

The mashed sweet potato sounds really good, and I love that it’s so easy to make!

Me too! It probably took less than 10 minutes, and most of that was just boiling the potatoes.
