Fitness wise I ran 7 miles and walked another 2.25 miles on the trails at my gym. It felt great to be alone in the woods just running. Then I went in and did a lower body workout.
Normally, I stick to the the machines they have in the center...you know the ones that mostly us girls use or at my gym the older members. Today I decided to go to the other end where the body builders workout...hey I am runner now, but I use to be a body builder! I have just gotten so far away from lifting that I felt unsure going down to that end...it was great to do leg presses and squats and lunges on the smith rack. I also did leg curls and extensions along with an ab workout of hanging abs, ball pass, incline crunch and ball toss!
I feel amazing!!!
Nutrition wise it has been a good day!
Breakfast was whole oats with blueberries and grapes on the side....not shown is my morning coffee....but only a half a cup today...
Don't panic it is not what you think! It is my lunch, yes, but it is not a McDonald's Frapp! It is in a Frapp cup because I was running out the door with it....so what it is it....my reeses cup smoothie!
This is one of my favorite post workout smoothies and today it happened that it was lunch as well....it it soy milk, natural peanutbutter, dark chocolate, frozen banana and actually a handful of spinach thrown in! It is the best...my clean sweet treat!
Dinner...well half of it today and the other half will probably be lunch tomorrow....it is a salad made with spinach and romaine, carrots, boiled eggs, turkey, tomatoe, cucumber, onion, banana peppes, and feta cheese....instead of dressing I drizzled lemon and orange juice on top! It was yummmy!!!
For a snack today I had a boiled egg and still plan to have some watermelon before bed tonight!
I also drank a gallon of lemon water and a glass of green tea....
