Water water WATER and the easy freezer meal!

Man oh man I can certainly tell I have not been drinking my water the last couple days. I must remember to get my water better. I can feel the difference with my energy and my skin. Maybe some soup for dinner tonight to just give a little help. I made some fresh tomato sourdough bread before our vacation and froze the left over loaf the recipe made so we have some delicious bread sitting on my counter. The hubs is trying to cut carbs out so I may heat the house up and just toast one slice for croutons! Ooo or use the grill outside. yum. I love fresh homemade croutons. I make a killer vegetable soup which I have just sitting in my freezer. I found this secret ingredient called TVP that has no flavor but adds so much protein and nutrients which is great for helping me get my 70g protein each day. It's amazing. And I am a firm believer in not being wasteful so after making a giant pot of soup I will take what we will have for leftovers and then use my handy dandy vacuum sealer and seal it up and toss it in the deep freeze for busy days like today when I just don't have time to cook a big meal. And lets face it its 90+ degrees here today so I don't want to cook and a good soup and salad dinner is delish on these days. Sounds like a plan!

Today was also my first official day back at the gym since vacation. Man oh man can I feel it! Whoever says water aerobics is for old people and prego women only have not been to my class at the gym. But I feel so great after going. I am not one who loves working out and since I had this surgery I committed to a lifestyle change which included working out regularly. I love the water so the water aerobics class has been a lifesaver. There are definitely days when I don't want to go but I just have to tell myself get up off your ass and go. New Life. GO. And I always seem to feel so much better after. It helps having such a great supportive hubby too. I am really blessed with him. He is my own personal cheerleader. Ah Love...Now I am feeling all mushy.

Time to finish up some housework and hang some wet laundry and then run some errands! Man I hope I have time to work on a crochet throw I am making!
