32g of raw broccoli = .8g of fiber
32g of NM Peanut Butter = 4g of fiber (20x the amount)
So for the same weight the PB has 5 times the fiber.
How about protein?
32g of canned tuna = 8.2g of protein
32g of NM Peanut Butter = 10g of protein
How about healthy fats (Omega-3... you know, the stuff that's found in fish oil?)
32g of canned tuna = .176g of Omega-3
32g of NM Peanut Butter = 4.1g of Omega-3 (23x times the amount in fish)
I think I may make me a PB&J when I get back from the gym!

NM PB is awesome. Can I get an "Amen" Mern?

Well, after being miserable and sick and contraction-y all of Wed and Thurs I'm scared to work out again. I'm working on building up my daily running around/standing activities. In the mean time, I've been putting more junk and carbs in my mouth like kettle corn, pizza, a cupcake (it was realllly good though!), way too much PB and jelly!
I think tomorrow I think I'll try some light exercises and try to get back on track for eating healthy.
Original Goals:
1. Exercise 4x - Y, Y, N, N, N
2. No trans fats Y, Y, Y, Y, N (fake creamer)
3. Emphasize proteins, veggies at every meal except breakfast Y, pretty good, N (m&ms and chex mix), Y, N -- too much pizza, popcorn, PB, and a cupcake
4. Stay hydrated and do lower back stretches The day I stayed home sick I realized my mouth was so dry and even my eyeballs felt dry so I chugged water , about 8 liters a day for 2 days and have been feeling much better! I guess pregnant women need lots more water!

I just got back from the gym. had a quick but awesome workout. I didn't have a blast today (although I said blizzard earlier) and I think I'll have a gala apple and some PB, if the peanut gallery approves.

Applesauce sounds good. Did you decide to break down and make Quinn a loaf of banana nut bread?
Tomorrow I'll be out all day for the NDSS Buddy walk. I'll have a both set up b/c we are a sponsor so I'll be stuck there. I hope I can find something that a vender is making that's 1/2 way decent.
