Hope everyone had a great Monday! Mine was just ho-hum. Nothing too horrible, but nothing fantastic either. In case you missed it, make sure to check out my weekend in Chicago here.
I got up without hitting the snooze button and did a few things around the house. Before I knew it it was after 6:15 and I need to rush to gym, otherwise I wasn’t going to get any workout in at all!
I had just enough time to get in a 20 minute interval run. I love that after 20 minutes I am sweating like I just worked out for twice that amount of time!
It felt wonderful to make my wonderful oatmeal this morning. It was the usual mix of chocolate PB2 and a small banana for 4 points. 
I spent my morning catching up from being gone on Friday. The only bummer about being gone from work! I mixed up my favorite combination of strawberries, 1/4c homemade granola, and ww yogurt for 3 points. 
I had a simple, yet filling lunch. My plate consisted of baby carrots, a turkey & cheese flat out, and 1/2c cottage cheese w/pineapple for 6 points. 
I had a new try for my afternoon snack. All Kellogg’s products were 50% off at the grocery store so I picked up a few boxes of these. They come out to 2 points each. It was good and satisfied my sweet tooth, but was much smaller than fiber one bars. 
Notice the giant 8% in the background? Yep I have that taped to my monitor because I HAVE to win the sister challenge! I’m only 4lbs away!
I think I’m coming down with a cold. My throat is hurting & my head is pounding. But I am refusing to accept it though. I came home after work and took a few Tylenol and gargled with hot salt water, a home remedy my Mom always had us do while growing up!
Supper was delicious tonight! I had a chicken teriyaki sandwich with cheese for 5 points.
I had some broccoli on the side. 
And also an orange (1 point) for some vitamin C to fight off whatever is trying to come on to me.
MONDAYS STATS
POINTS = 21/23
WATER = 120 oz
EXERCISE = 20 min interval run
So I mentioned earlier that I gargled with hot salt water for my sore throat. I don’t have any other symptoms besides a scratchy throat & headache….but you just never know when those other nasty ones will pop up.I would love to hear from you guys. Do you have any home remedies that helps fight off a cold quickly?

Looks yummy! And it looks like you have a lot of the same staples around YOUR house that I have here!!
I hope you're not getting sick. I hear that Emergen-C works really well to fight off a cold. I've had a scratchy throat and achy feeling for days now- but I never seem to come down w/ a cold- hopefully I won't!
ZICAM nose spray! it works! haven't had a cold in months!
what kind of sliced cheese to you use that is white? 2% swiss?
loved the pics of Chicago! glad you had a great time!
drink lots of water and pray it goes away fast lol
great workout though and food looks delish as always
yummy! Isn't homemade granola the best??? Your teriyaki chicken burgers looksfantastical, too!!
That's right! Just keeping taking the vitamin C and keep it away!
This sounds crazy but I swear it usually works for me! I put hydrogen peroxide in my ears. Crazy right? I fill the cap of the bottle with peroxide, tip my head to the side and pour into my ear. Feels so weird but I let it bubble away for 30s or so then flip my head upright and catch all the peroxide with a kleenex. I can't guarantee this is safe or a good idea but it's worked for me! :)
I wish I had some suggestions, but I just recovered from a cold that I was fighting for a long time. Apparently none of my remedies worked. :)
I have tried the new Fiber bars as well and really love them. THey have great flavor, but I haven't tried the Fiber One bars you mentioned. Are they the same amount of points?
How much time is left for you to lose the weight and win your sister challenge?
