The good, the bad and the ugly

It’s late and I should be sleeping, but alas I’m going to throw a quick post together.

Eat

Because M and I went to The Restaurant at the Canterbury Hotel (yes, that’s the real name of it) as part of Devour Downtown, my calories for today are somewhat of a guess, and my guess is that they [...]

The Dreaded Billable Hour

Eat

I’m sure your first thought when you didn’t see my post last night (you noticed, right?) was that I had a bad day. While that’s partially true, it’s not the reason I didn’t post. I didn’t post because I went to bed really early and feel fantastic today. If I haven’t mentioned it before, [...]

An Odd Combination

Eat

Had another good day of eats today. Had to add an almond butter sandwich to dinner (roasted eggplant) because I was going to be a bit calorie deficient.

Out of the loop

Eat

My eats for today were decent. I ate a few unknowns though: M made the sweet potato fries and put about 5 times too much oil (but I cannot complain because he did most of the cooking tonight!) and I had a wrap for lunch (I used Subways chicken bacon ranch wrap for my calorie [...]

New Post Format & A Good Day

I did great today with my food. In fact, I may be too good at this point.

NSV!

I managed to drag my butt out of bed this morning and run 3 miles as the sun rose (this was my NSV). Sadly, I did not feel nearly as energized today as I expected. I’m hoping to do it again tomorrow again. I did the run as more of an easy jog and [...]

Thursday Night Brick

Last week when I did my brick, M was in DC for the day so naturally I ate dinner after my workout. It never fails that when he is away/busy for the night and I’m working out that I eat after my workout. However, when he’s home he convinces me to eat dinner before the [...]

Tuesdays are boring

I’m really tired this evening, probably a combination of my bike ride this evening and getting up earlier this week to do Shred. I did Shred again this morning. I seriously cannot believe how much I sweat in that 20 minutes nor how much I want the 20 minutes to be over! I actually posted [...]

Just another weekday.

Started off with my normal breakfast today. Had some grapes for a snack (they were super cheap at the grocery yesterday). I had my normal salad today but cut the pine nuts in half again and added chicken. It was okay but I actually prefer it without chicken. I do think it kept me fuller [...]

Monday, bloody Monday

I don’t think those are the actual song lyrics…but it’s my blog so I can say whatever I want

Mondays are a ginormous fail in my opinion. Is there a point in life when you start enjoying Mondays? If so let me know when that is and I’ll just try to skip ahead. (I really [...]
