Restart

Last night I slept at my parents’ house because I have a hearing close to their house this morning. Thankfully this did not stop me from a morning workout as there is an LA Fitness about 15 minutes from their house.

On the schedule for the day was a 5 mike run at 9:33. I [...]

Being truthful

My apologies for not posting yesterday, but unfortunately the litigate part of eatrunlitigate got the better of me and I worked a 15.5 hour day (I was actually at a mediation and we were there until 12:30 a.m.! I’m happy to report it settled!).  I got home at 12:40 a.m. and had to be out [...]

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

Protein protein protein

Cool Running (who I credit with my running because of their famous Couch to 5k plan) tweeted/twittered today about the 8 common nutrition mistakes. I didn’t and still haven’t made it past mistake number 1: protein intake. The article recommends .5 – .75 grams of protein per pound of body weight. This would mean I [...]

18 miles isn't anything to sneeze at

I had grand plans of doing a 45+ mile bike ride today. Had a bit of a scheduling issue and decided to do 25 miles instead. About 10 miles in I realized that eating really erratic today (bowl of cereal at 11 a.m. was the most substantive thing I ate all day) was leaving absolutely [...]

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 [...]

Another Quick One

M and I haven’t been sleeping the latest lately so we have decided to start not watching tv or using the computer an hour before bedtime (there’s lots of research out there preaching that), and that hour started 3 minutes ago so I have to make this quick.

I finally got a work out in tonight [...]

Great swim finallly (daily update)

Fantastic day today, despite feeling like I was starving about half way through the afternoon. I combated that by eating a wrap with a smidge of honey mustard on it. It wasn’t good but it satisfied my hunger pains.

For dinner, I made the same risotto that I made last week. It has sundried tomatoes and [...]

Weekly Run Down, Week 1, version 2

Overall, I only missed one of my scheduled work outs this week (a swim).

Since I haven’t posted about my work outs for the weekend, I’ll do that first. I ran a 5k on Saturday on the treadmill in 29 minutes. I then lifted lower body. It was a good work out. I was sweating up [...]

Day 4, how many times have I restarted counting?

Well I have two problems tonight to post (1) Weber Grill Restaurant does not have nutrition info for their food. I had the Southwestern Chopped Salad with Grilled Shrimp
Red Chili Marinated Jumbo Shrimp with Black Beans, Roasted Sweet Red Peppers, Corn, Queso Fresco Cheese and Serrano Lime Vinaigrette. (that’s from their website). I didn’t have [...]
