Less Than 3 Months to Go



So there is less than 3 months to the wedding and I finally bought my dress last Saturday. (Thank you Michi and Sarah for all of your help with that!!)

There is zero wiggle room in this FANTASTICLY awesome dress I bought which means super healthy eating for the next three months. Which also means, no more Goat Cheese Medallions. :(

Luckily the Logan Square Farmer's Market is open every Sunday to supply me with fresh fruits and veggies. I enjoy organic strawberries in my morning bowl of Oatmeal and a fresh spinach or mixed greens salad as an afternoon snack. This week I was able to slice up a cucumber to go on top!

So I mostly eat the same thing day in and day out, which makes my blog a bit boring, but I will try to post some light, tasty treats for those who are also watching their waistline this summer.

First up, the beer had to go. My drink of choice is now an Arnold Palmer. I make my own sun tea (no calories and full of good anti-oxidants) and I mix in a bit of lemonade. 3/4 part tea, 1/4 part lemonade. serve on ice. :)

Yeah! 3 months! So glad you found a dress :) And if you're looking for something light, but filling for lunch - 9 slices of turkey (I like the Oscar Meyer Cajun - but it's not organic) and a couple of handfuls of baby carrots. It takes a while to eat and it fills you up for a couple of hours. I ate that for like 3 weeks straight :)
