What I Ate Wednesday #19

This will be my first full week of senior year... STILL SO WEIRD!
But, anyways! It's Wednesday again, which means it's time for another weekly eats post!
It's been feeling A LOT like fall lately. I freakin' LOVE it!

9/6/12 - Breakfast: chocolate almond protein egg white oatmeal with pumpkin flax granola + a few pieces of chocolate cereal + banana slices + a bit of plain Greek yogurt + cinnamon + some slivered almonds + a dollop of Biscoff cookie spread & White Chocolate Wonderful!
9/7/12 - Breakfast: this oatmeal is probably my new current favorite.
Pumpkin cookie protein egg white oatmeal with pumpkin flax granola + a few Cinnamon Toast Crunch squares + some banana slices + a bit of plain Greek yogurt + cinnamon + some Biscoff spread & Dark Chocolate Dreams peanut butter... 
9/7/12 - Snack(?): I don't even like coffee, but after school, I made my mom take me to WaWa to get their pumpkin spice coffee... Haha. I didn't drink much of it (I TRIED to like it... I added my usual tea sweetening things, but I couldn't drink it...)
9/8/12 - Breakfast: delicious sweet omelet!
Pumpkin banana omelet with some pumpkin flax granola + a few Cinnamon Toast Crunch squares + banana slices + melted Biscoff spread inside, and a 100% whole wheat sandwich thin half with Cinnamon Raisin Swirl peanut butter + pumpkin flax granola + cinnamon, and half with Biscoff spread + banana slices + cinnamon.
9/8/12 - Lunch: ALDI GOT SWEET POTATOES AGAIN! I missed my savory stuffed sweet potatoes!!
Loads and loads of vegetables (with plain Greek yogurt + ranch powder to dip) and a savory stuffed sweet potato.
9/9/12 - Breakfast: the best  post-workout healthy power breakfast ever!
Pumpkin protein cookie egg white oatmeal with pumpkin flax granola + cereals + baby banana slices! + a bit of plain Greek yogurt + cinnamon + melted Biscoff spread... All inside a nearly empty Cinnamon Raisin Swirl jar! With pumpkin spice protein green tea on the side. Mmmmm.
9/10/12 - Breakfast: I finally got some all natural unsweetened cocoa powder this past weekend! Yay! 
Chocolate covered strawberry & banana protein egg white oatmeal with pumpkin flax granola + some cereals + banana slices & strawberries + a bit of plain Greek yogurt + cinnamon + Biscoff spread.
9/11/12 - Breakfast: Pumpkin & apple pie/cookie protein egg white oatmeal with pumpkin flax granola + a few squares of Cinnamon Toast Crunch + apple slices + plain Greek yogurt + cinnamon + Biscoff spread & a dollop of Dark Chocolate Dreams.
9/12/12 - Breakfast: long story short, I've been struggling a lot lately, and I've unfortunately been falling back into some old habits... But, this morning, I decided today was a day to try harder.
This is the first time I used a full serving of oatmeal in SO long... I've been using 1/4 cup more/less for awhile now, but that's not the serving size. 1/2 cup is. So, that's what I used.
I'm really proud of myself for this, despite the anxiety I got... But, it was DELICIOUS and FILLING, nonetheless! Vanilla pudding egg white oats with pumpkin flax granola + a few Cinnamon Toast Crunch squares + banana & strawberry slices + a bit of plain Greek yogurt + cinnamon + White Chocolate Wonderful!

Where are my workouts, you ask? Never fear... Here they are

My goal for the next few weeks is to change up my meals some more! As you can tell, the only meal I really ever change up, is breakfast... Making for pretty dang boring and repetitive WIAW posts! This will be my motivation to get experimental and get cookin'! I guess this means it's time to lurk some WIAWs for more inspiration...

  2. It all looks delicious! I love Cinnamon Raisin Swirl peanut butter, nothing compares! I bought the dark chocolate dreams, but I wasn't that much of a fan ): What type of tea do you drink? Congrats on increasing the portion size, depriving yourself is unhelpful and unnecessary! Choose the good life (:

    1. Cinnamon Raisin Swirl PB is one of the best PBs for sure! I couldn't find it this week and it made me sad :( Haha!
      I'm not a huge fan of Dark Chocolate Dreams either... But it's yummy mixed in things :) White Chocolate Wonderful is much better, in my opinion!
      I normally drink green tea mixed with different things like almond milk, cinnamon, Stevia, etc.! I'm not a fan of just plain tea, so I always add things to it!
      And thank you, lovely! :) Means the world! <3
