I wish you could see the salad I am about to devour.
But since I do not have a camera I shall describe it to you instead.
It has..
spinach
red bell pepper
green onion
cucumber
almonds
sesame sticks
with a side of Raspberry vinaigrette dressing.
I only wish I had some edamame and possibly some tofu in it as well. And Orange sesame vinaigrette instead.
But still by far the best salad I’ve made for myself!
I had an awesome week nutrition and exercise wise.
Treating myself to a tiny square of brownie, a couple peanut butter m&m’s, strawberries, and Because I Said So.
And green tea. Always with the green tea!!
So proud of myself.
I went half the day sitting on the couch, eyes glued to the tv because I was marathon-ing Supernatural (I just started watching the show on netflix recently so I was a newbie and no where near caught up).
When I finally finished season 7, my parents called me out to the backyard where they were having a cookout. I hadn’t worked out yet but I didn’t want to not hang out with the family so…
I brought out my yoga mat and worked out by the grill!!!
that’s dedication if I do say so myself
I’m wondering if I should take today off as my rest day. I’ve been working really hard this spring break and yesterday’s workout was KILLER. My knees felt like they were on fire last night as I tried to sleep. Not in an overly painful way.
I just don’t want to lose a day since once classes start back up again next week, it will be hard to workout as consistently as I have been.
I believe in moderation. I do. But I think it’s a skill. And I am learning that I have not mastered that skill.
For those of us who binge eat, control is hard. Everyone has to listen to their bodies and figure out what it right for them.
I think I am realizing that I just need to quit cold turkey. And I am okay with that.
Worked out for the first time since getting sick yesterday…see this is why I can’t go more than a day without working out.
I felt like puking the entire time.. Like I am that out of shape again. I understand that your body needs time to rest but if I could I’d try and workout everyday.
The longer I sit around doing nothing the harder it is for me to get back on the horse.
I woke up today with a terrible cold. I can barely keep my eyes open, breathing is impossible, and I can’t stop sweating (this fever won’t break!!).
I swear something always derails me. I’m trying to sleep as much as possible and drink ALL the liquids. I really need to be better by Tuesday for classes.
Anyway, hello everyone who is new to this blog. Welcome! Here you will find my crazy musings about life as well as updates on my road to better health.
I cannot believe how incredibly exhausted I have been feeling these past couple of days. I’m starting to wonder if I’m eating enough.
Sometimes, when days start to get busier, its easy to forget to eat or not eat enough. I wonder if I have been doing that.
I think I might try and get some sort of activity in. Maybe some light yoga before bed.
Today felt like such a long day even though I basically woke up, went to class, and came home in time for dinner. I can’t wait until the sun stays out longer.
I’m just about to jump rope then I’m off to bed! I’ve got another intense acting class in the morning :/
I hope you all kicked off your weekends well!
<3
