To get myself going I happily ate a scrumptious breakfast cookie I prepared the night before:
1/3 cup oats, 1/2 scoop Vanilla Whey (Designer Whey brand), 1/2 banana, 1/8 cup soy milk, stevia, cinnamon, dash sea salt, dried cranberries
And a couple of these from my new darling Keurig:
Coffee, steamed soy + cinnamon
After catching up on the news and thesis-ing for a while I decided a quick workout would wake me up.
I did the TurboFire 30 min workout (Fire 30) and it DEFINITELY did the trick! It's crazy how we sometimes claim tiredness is an excuse not to exercise when it makes you SO MUCH more AWAKE!
For lunch I had a variety of things through out the day because I was feeling snacky. And studying makes me extra snacky.
Green Monster Smoothie:
Vanilla Whey protein, 1/2 frozen banana, 1/2 cup frozen strawberries, handful fresh spinach, stevia, pinch xanthan gum, ice, H20
Cinnamon Raisin PB Oats:
1/3 cup oats, cinnamon, stevia, raisins, better n' pb, dash sea salt. Soak oats in h20 over night. Microwave. Then add remaining ingredients.
Chilled diced apple:
After more reading/studying/thesis-ing than my eyes could take, I was itching to get out for a short run since today was the first day in a LONG time it was not ridiculously humid. I set out for a 3 miler but ended up doing 5 miles (at 7:55 pace!). Guess my breakfast and lunch of carbs did the trick!
For dinner I made a gigantic spinach salad (not pictured) and an open faced egg salad sandwich:
3 egg whites, 2 yolks, tbsp light mayo, dash sea salt, pepper, paprika over a toasted bagel thin (looks like popcorn, no?)
Still hunnnngry I whipped up this deliciousness:
PB Chocolate yogurt: 3/4 cup FF Greek yogurt, organic cacao, stevia, Better N' Butter, fresh strawberries
OK, time to spend time with the Manfriend.
We both clearly need to get off our laptops as its almost 1:15am!
G'NIGHT!!!! Have a wonderful Tuesday!
XX,
Lauren
