Happy Hump Day! It feels like Monday today since I was out sick yesterday. I’m glad that several of you could relate to the nausea that I felt after my run. Not glad that you have to experience it, but happy that I’m not alone.
I’ve decided that I’m not meant to workout at 4:30am, I need to stay more hydrated, and I need to eat healthier this week. I think I can handle that.
For those of you who have to work this week, I hope you’re being more productive than me. I’m getting what I need to get done, but my brain is totally on auto-pilot. I feel like I’m in a bit of a fuzzy state of mind because it feels weird having two holiday weekends in a row (and 3 short work weeks). Plus, so many people are off of work that it’s been really quiet (and OOO auto-responses are in plenty).
I’m trying to put together some sort of end-of-year post, so keep your eyes peeled. Unfortunately, I won’t have many recaps since I just started blogging in October. Anywho, here’s a snippet of what I’ve eaten today since I haven’t been posting much food lately.
Breakfast- Oatmeal w/ ChiaCharger + SoBe Coconut Lifewater
Snack- Fage 2% Strawberry + Cuties
Lunch Part 1- Rice with my mom’s yummy spicy chicken (it looks a lot spicier than it really is)
Lunch Part 2: Salad monster from Cooks Fresh Market downtown (spinach, baby spring mix, artichokes, cucumbers, beets, broccoli, shredded carrots, black beans, egg, and turkey)
I was going to make a small salad, but I’ve been craving veggies like crazy, so I opted to make a huge one and get my veggie intake back to where it should be. Cooks Fresh has a decent salad bar with plenty of options, but I would rather go to Green Fine Salad any day.
My belly is nice and content because I didn’t eat nearly enough yesterday due to the nausea I was experiencing, and my runner’s appetite was in full force this morning. I’m going to hit the gym for a BodyPump class, so at least I’ll be fully fueled for my workout. It’s been over a month since I last went to BodyPump, so I know I’m going to be struggling today. Wish me luck!
Question of the Day: Have you been eating tons of extra veggies this week to make up for the holiday weekend?
Fit on the Rocks 
that salad looks great! Yes, I’m also craving tons of fresh fruit and veggies this week!
They’re tasting sooo good right now!
BOoo I am sorry you were feeling ill! Ickk never fun
Keep fueling your body while you are hungry, it needs to recover!
I think I’m eating too much lol. I’ve been stuffing my face nonstop…
I have definitely eaten a big, veggie-filled salad for lunch every day since Christmas to try and get back on track 🙂
Glad you’re feeling better!
It seems like I can’t get enough!
I have been eating salads for lunch but that still doesn’t even come close to making up for all the crap I put in my body over the weekend 😦
I’ve still been putting crap in my body…stupid office birthdays. I know I can say no, but the cake is too good.
Yes, I’ve been trying to eat extra veggies and fruit this week after my sugar overload during the holidays! 🙂
During the holidays I don’t really eat any differently… I’m allergic to almost everything on the planet so my diet doesn’t change all that much. Good for my waistline, bad because I get super jealous with all the delicious stuff I can’t eat.
Hope you’re feeling better!
Oh man…I couldn’t imagine being allergic to a bunch of stuff, but at least it helps you stay on track.
During the holidays I mainly ate cookies, now I’m mainly eating veggies!
Cooooooookies. I ate a lot of ice cream.
