Gotta make the name change official. I've gotten away with it for 4 months, but NOW.......I gotta get it done.  *sigh* I know this process isn't all that bad, but I just DON'T feel like standing in no line, and paying no dayum fees!!! Getting a last name change means:
New License
New log-in's
New Cards issued (meaning I'll have to resubmit info)
Changing bank account name
New PASSPORT! Which I dread, cuz now I have to go take a pic and resubmit all my paperwork!

NO NO NO!!!!

So yesterday's meal plan wasn't so bad, besides being a bit hungry I just shook it off and drank water........which only made me even more hungrier.

So i decided to look up a few snacks that wouldn't throw me off my plan, here's what I found:
 
  • Fresh Fruit
  • Fresh-cut veggies
  • Festive Salsa
  • Spiced Party Nuts
  • Taffy-Apple Dip w/ Apples & Pears
  • Hummus & pita bread
  • Trail Mix
  • Granola
  • Applesause w/ Raisins
  • Fruit Skewer w/ Yogurt sauce
  • Fruit Smoothies
  • S'mores
  • Spicy Pizza bagel

Not so bad! Tho I'm not a fan of Hummus, I've heard there are different flavored kinds, so i may give it a try....
Today's Menu:

Breakfast:
Banana, Fresh pineapples, green Mandarin Tea

Lunch:
Ceaser salad, Chive potatoe, fruit

Dinner:

TBD....
