Wow, I have been MIA and I am sorry. The past 4-6 weeks have been crazy and I have been all over the place. My best friends turned 30, my grandma turned 90, and my brother is getting deployed so we through him a going away party! All of these events happened in different states, outside of Texas.

Just because I am a dietitian does not mean that I eat perfectly. I thought I'd give you a snapshot of what I ate this week. I was extremely busy this week, which made for some interesting meals. On Saturday we had some friends over and had a cookout. Per usual, I had a ton of leftovers. I am not one for throwing out foods. Therefore a lot of our dinners were based around what we had in our fridge. Sunday was a little bit of a mess. I felt a little under the weather after the
