Happy Hump Day all!! Wasn’t The Biggest Loser awesome last night?! I have two favorite parts ~ the train the trainers had me totally LMAO and then, I absolutely loved how they showed the contestants the way they were doing the first workouts to now. It totally shows you that even when you start doing push-ups and feel like you can’t, if you keep at it, you will get there. I LOVE the twist they threw in next week where America gets to pick who goes to the finale!
Love that show!
Ok, onto breakfast. I have decided today that every breakfast should seriously start with an amazing cheesy, spicy quesadilla like this.
3 Tbsp lowfat monterey jack cheese
1 fabulous handmade chile lime corn tortilla
a sprinkle of crush red pepper flakes
On the side I had an Egg/Egg White Scramble
1 egg
2 egg whites
sea salt
freshly ground red pepper
a few dashes of spicy Tapatio ( my favorite hot sauce!)
To the eggs, I was supposed to add 1/3 cup of salsa but this morning I wasn’t feeling the salsa. I brought it to work with me and I still had not changed my mind…so I guess I saved myself about 10 calories LOL.
I also had 1 cup of the super sweet Watermelon & Cantaloupe that The Husband cut up for us. I LOVE melons and could totally sustain on them, I think 😀
All together with the TJ’s Garlic Chipotle Salsa that I didn’t use, 1/2 calf coffee and my fun new Nathan LOVE bottle 🙂
Sorry for the bummer pictures today ~ I think my camera is tired like me! 😀
I am super excited to report an awesome recap for yesterday:
2,998 calories burned (wish I knew I was so close, would’ve worked for 2 more to get to 3K)
15,093 steps taken – yahoo!
1,460+ calories consumed – this was my total before my BLT’s hmmmmm….

You’re doing such a great job sticking to your plan, Danica! Keep it up the great work and the even greater attitude 🙂
Oh – and I have weird reasons for not posting: I accidentally commented on my sister’s blog logged in as my food blog’s name. I am really kind of shy about the fact I was keeping it so I didn’t want her to see it, so I am lying low for a little while. I know – so dorky. Plus, it’s exams, so I’m just trying to get through those 🙂
Jane ~ Thanks for the compliment! I really think it all has to start with the right attitude – you have to believe it to make it happen, right? You are too cute! You should be proud of your blog – it’s awesome. But, I do know what you mean – I haven’t exactly shared mine with all my family and friends yet. Good luck with the exams.

You are right, every morning should start with a quesedilla!! 3000 calories is amazing for one day to burn!! Do you wear a HRM all day to track that? Great job!
