Well, beer pong didn't happen. Instead I drank a couple glasses of wine and fell asleep. Oh well :( . So to finish talking about Monday... I started off the morning in Decatur, drove through looking for a quick breakfast, didn't find anything so just went straight to the Dekalb Farmers Market for some fresh produce and protein. I got some beautiful strawberries, apples, oranges, a cucumber, a couple tomatoes, vidalia onions (yay summer!), eggs, goat cheese, honey, chicken breasts, and ground beef. All organic, and only around $50. Not bad. I sauteed an onion, cooked an egg over easy, and toasted a piece of ciabatta bread with some goat cheese and honey. Yummy breakfast. Before work I made a turkey sandwich with the ciabatta bread, goat cheese, lettuce, and tomato. I had a few slices of cucumber on the side with some olive oil, salt and pepper. Both meals were great, where I messed up was snacking on leftover party chex mix while watching Weeds, and having a piece of leftover cookie cake :( Eating smaller portions and not constantly snacking are two things I need to work on. I brought a couple oranges to work so I wouldn't snack, and of course I ignored those and snacked on the food for the cocktail party at work. When I got home from work around 11:30 I made another turkey sandwich and had a glass of wine (instead of beer pong).
Yesterday I started my new workout routine. I woke up and immediately got dressed to go running with Roxy. She was a nightmare, and I'm in awful shape, so needless to say it was not fun. She kept pulling me everywhere and freaked out wanting to play with every dog. We'll get better. Then I got ready to grab lunch with Leigha, but unfortunately we weren't able to meet because she had so much to do and I had to go to work. So I sauteed an onion and cooked a chicken breast for lunch. Also had a few slices of tomato and a piece of bread. I didn't snack at work! But I didn't really have an opportunity. And I made up for it by eating a piece a ciabatta bread and pita chips with goat cheese at 1 am before bed. Oops. I got to see Tatyana for a few minutes before bed, I wish I had gotten off work earlier so I could have spent more time with her before she left today for Dubai :( .
This morning I spent a little time with Tatyana before she left to finish packing. I can't believe I won't see her for three months. I don't know what I'll do all summer without her. Sit at home alone with Roxy. Ha. I won't get bored, but I'll definitely miss her being around. For breakfast I sauteed an onion (yes, they are that good) and threw in a couple scrambled eggs with some shredded turkey, goat cheese, and avacado. So good! I love messing with eggs. I also cut up an apple and ate that with some peanut butter. It was a big breakfast so I watched tv and took a nap before running. Roxy was so much better today! I think she is already starting to understand what I want from her with my little yanks on her leash! The run was more relaxing, but still just as hard to finish. But it feels so good to finish, I think I can keep this up. Now I'm getting ready to go hang out with my family for my mom's birthday. And instead of eating a little fruit before dinner I ate Tatyana's leftover Mellow Mushroom. Which included too much cheese and bread, and too little nutrition :( . This is a work in progress, I can't just quit these eating habits cold turkey! I'm already doing better just because of what I have in the house to eat. If I only buy things that will contribute to me loosing weight, the only way I can eat the bad things is eating out. Which I'm trying not to do to save money.
I don't have a nice camera but I would like to start putting up some pictures, even if it's just from my iPhone. I'll tackle that later :)
