I love President's Choice

I went to buy groceries yesterday. President's Choice is now pushing the healthy. woohoo! (I already loved it because of the cheaposity, plus it was pretty good at making "trendy" type food. Good knockoffs I guess I mean). So I bought some new cereal. Cereal with like 15 g of PROTEIN! No need to shell out for Kashi anymore! I also bought a bunch of fruit. Including kiwi's. I heard they were among the healthiest foods ever. As much fibre in one small kiwi as a large apple, more vitamin C than an orange, more potassium than a banana. All sorts of awesome things. Also got a big tub of spring mix salad. I hope it's good because I used it to pack a salad for lunch (along with some sliced strawberries, and sliced turkey sandwich meat) and forgot the dressing!

I even got random things like a can of beans in tomato sauce, but it's soybeans! good times.

Had myself a salad for supper and a bun and a banana. I'm not sticking perfect to my plan apparently. I'm ok with switching out one fruit for another because I didn't know what I was going to buy at groceries. but I'm going to try and do well with the rest.

Intervals on the treadmill yesterday, did the full 30 minutes. When I'm running outside, I don't care if it's 20 minutes or 30 minutes, it feels the same. But on the treadmill when you're staring at that number, it just feels like failure if I don't go at least 30. Then hubby wasn't ready for me to help him so I didn't do that chore like I'd planned. oh well, a little behind schedule.

Tonight I'm hoping to get to the gym. I don't really know if I have to pay, or if I have a membership yet (I get a free one when I start teaching, probably March). I emailed and asked so we'll see.

I also got an offer to take the training for teaching the power class (weight lifting sculpt class). I sort of want to. But I'm not sure how it would work with this job. Would they pay for half the training? Would I be guaranteed to be able to teach it enough hours to pay for itself? Do I want to teach so many hours? I'm hoping the girl I "interviewed" with will be at the gym tonight so I can talk to her about it. She seemed really nice and down to earth about things.

You know the Spring shoes everyone bought last week? I bought 10 pair (between my sis and I). well the first couple got delivered yesterday. They're sending them individually! doesn't that seem silly? It was free shipping for me, but it's gotta make more sense for them to send 1 big package than 10 little ones! weird.

Anyway, realized I've got a pile of work to do with actual deadlines so gotta get organized and get at it!

the Spring shipping like that is because they are probably coming from different stores. They do the online sales to clear out old stock and instead of the stores shipping back to one warehouse they just ship out to the customers. :)

I adore what presidents choice is coming out with!!!!

I agree, it was weird with the Spring stuff (I have the same issue) but it's exactly what Bionic said, they are just clearing out their stock...but it is a pain right?? I have a whole bunch that are supposed to be delivered on Friday from the same place!! I am going to get a million packages at one time!
