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 [...] 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 [...] Tonight I did my third brick. If you recall, my first one was a few weeks ago and the run was on the treadmill. Last week’s brick was 12.5 miles, which is the length of the bike ride in the triathlon, and the run was 1.5 miles outside, immediately after the ride. Tonight I [...] 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 [...] Well I had the a less than stellar eating weekend (think onion rings, chinese food, chicken wings)…okay it was bad but really thinking back it wasn’t as bad as it could have been because I could have drank last night and I passed (and I was so happy with that decision this morning). However, this [...] 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 [...] Almost every work morning my second half of breakfast (eaten at my desk at the office) is Simple Harvest Oatmeal. This stuff is very tasty and has a better ingredient list than other oatmeal (as implied by the name). The it of walnut in there is also amzing! Snacks today were an apple before lunch [...] Sorry I didn’t get to post yesterday. I wasn’t able to take any pictures (except one from my car in the a.m. which didn’t really turn out). I had to be at work at 6 a.m. to drive to Bloomington for a hearing. The hearing ended up being longer than scheduled, so I ended up [...] Breakfast was the usual: luna bar and oatmeal. M and I took a trip to Costco this weekend where I picked up a packet of Pita Chips… to go with my industrial sized container of hummus I’ve had for a bit. I was hesitant about these chips, but holy cow they were good. The best part? The [...] Well I suppose I’m not going to forget them, but I’m certainly going to do everything I can to put it behind me. The first thing fail of the two days was at kickball. I struggled the whole day with the back issue but it wasn’t intolerable. I got to kickball and was concerned [...] |
