100 Days Smoke Free!!!

I am totally doing the happy dance right now! As I sat and talked to one of my buddies (that is an RN) today on the phone, and told her about how my chest has been feeling, she told me some interesting facts about quitting smoking and how it can make your chest feel. She even said that she has heard other people make the comment that they felt better after smoking a cigarette when going without one for so long! Crazy huh?!?!? Well, I started looking up more stuff and found some interesting testamonials about how bad people actually feel after quitting bc their bodies are just not used to all this clean air and their lungs are healing! I was like "WOW" that's exactly how I feel! I find myself getting out of breath so easily now days and it was starting to scare me since I am so active now. It's been so hard for me to go running and do cardio workouts without getting winded! I also find myself taking deep breaths like I am struggling to get air....well this too is normal bc my body is used to those deep breaths from inhaling cigarettes! It's good to know it's totally normal and everything shall pass! I got curious about how many days "exactly" I have been smoke free and today actually makes Day 100!!!! So happy to have given up another bad habit in my life! Here is the link I found all the testamonials on! http://www.steadyhealth.com/Shortness_of_breath_after_stopping_smoking_t160762.html
This is one thing that is acutally good to give up on and quit! #keepreachinggoals

21 Day Fix Approved Asian Stir Fry

I am always looking for new things to make for lunch as I want to save on money, time and also get bored always eating the same thing over and over and over again! So, here is a little quickie that I threw together this afternoon for lunch. I just went into the kitchen, glanced over what was in there (we need groceries but are on a tight budget this week) and came up with this totally yummy dish! If you like to eat Japanese hibatchi, then you will totally love this! And what's better....it all fits for my 21 Day Fix plan!!!

  

       

Last night we had some whole wheat spaghetti noodles seasoned with a little bit of butter, minced garlic and italian seasonings. We had left overs so I decided this will be my yellow container for lunch today. In the same container there was some steamed broccoli....ok, so ideas were starting to flow!!! Looking in the produce drawer I spotted shredded carrots, onions and some sliced mushrooms.....kept glancing, fresh eggs from our chickens....ok, this is getting really good!!! Looked on the door...hmmm...soy sauce and oyster sauce!!! Ding ding ding!!! Stir fry like they have at hibatchi restaraunts! One of my faves! So, I got all the ingredients together and got started!

Here's how it all went down!!!

I heated up some coconut oil in a skillet. Added some sliced oninons, mushrooms and the shredded carrots (I just threw some in there). I let these cook until soft and brown. Then I added the left over noodles, broccoli and strirred for a minute longer until warm. I then needed a little more oil before putting in the eggs so I put a splash of sesame oil and then the beaten eggs (2 of them for one red container). Once I put in the eggs I put a few splashed of low sodium soy sauce and a couple of drops of oyster sauce! Cook until eggs are done and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds! This is what the finished product looks like! I hope you enjoy it!

For this dish here are the amounts of the 21 Day Fix containers you will use
1 red (2 eggs), 1 green (veggies), 1 yellow (whole wheat noodles) and 1 orange (sesame seeds and sauce)
