Tuesday: Run and Yoga


This morning, I am back on my schedule of running and doing yoga on Tuesdays. Ivan and I headed out in the jog stroller after a breakfast of steel cut oats with protein powder and strawberries. Something that I don't know that I addressed about my weekend is that I ate some serious trash. Just treated my body like a garbage disposal.
We had Mexican on Friday night, I don't want to think about the fact that I ingested MY WEIGHT in chips and guacamole. For lunch the following day, I had a chicken salad sandwich AT A DINER, which means they buttered and toasted the white bread and the chicken salad was more mayonaise than chicken. I did have a salad with my chicken salad sandwich, but it was totally iceberg. The diner had a homemade "night and day" cheesecake, which I felt obligated to try (and let's not forget that I also ate most of the cookies we ordered for Ivan's dessert). For dinner, after the nutritional atrocity that I had for lunch, we went for PIZZA. I had a pesto cheese pizza. Before the race, I had a couple of cup of gold bars, and after I had a box lunch with a huge turkey sandwich, bag of chips, cookie and an apple.
And I know that I work out a lot and can most likely eat a lot of what I want. I get that completely, BUT eating diner food after a night of Mexican just doesn't make me feel great. On Sunday night, I was ready for some hardcore detox. Two mornings of steel cut oats, and healthy dinner in the evenings has revolutionized my energy level. I have had my green teas, white teas, and glass of V8 with lunch, and I am feeling more like myself.

After my jog stroller run, I hit Cosco with my mom and stocked up on soy milk, sweet potatoes and diapers. ALWAYS DIAPERS. I swear, I am mere months from potty training, and I dream longingly about it all the time.

I got in a good yoga session at home, headed into work and made some healthy dinner.
