Snippets of the past few days...

I only have the energy to offer up a few bullets this morning...
  • Wednesday after work, I got lazy and decided not to run.
  • While still at work, I ate two big pieces of Amish Friendship Bread, which is really cake, leaving my tummy full and my mind pissed off at myself.
  • Once I got home and sat down in front of the TV, I then proceeded to finish off a bag of sour cream and onion chips as well as crackers and cheese, and a huge hot dog.
  • I NEVER eat hot dogs.
  • Since it was the BF's bday the next day and he was at a night class, I made him a batch of Red Velvet Cupcakes.
  • I ate three.
  • I felt like crap all night.
  • Thursday morning, I didn't have to be at work until later so I made the BF bday pancakes!
  • They were whole wheat so I rationalized eating a small one with honey 15 minutes prior to my 8 mile run that morning at 7 AM.
  • That was a bad idea.
  • The run went well, but the first 4 miles were tough due to pancake and food intake of the night before.
  • I felt (somewhat) redeemed after finishing run, but still very pissed that I had skipped it on Wednesday, thus extending my running week and making Friday an on day rather than an off day.
  • Last night I drank too much wine at a work event.
  • I came home and ate TWO HOT DOGS!
  • I was hungover this morning and dehydrated so I made a fruit and spinach smoothie, making me feel a little better about life.
Conclusion? Being lazy and skipping runs for no good reason doesn't make me happy, it actually makes me have a worse night so I don't know why I ever do it! I always end up just eating too much food and watching crappy TV. This week hasn't been the best food wise, I plan on turning that around this weekend. I'm hoping the mega smoothie from this morning will heal all and erase my past discretions.

Got a track workout on for tonight and 20 miles planned for this Sunday. We have some friends coming over tonight to watch the UNC game...I plan on serving a plethora of HEALTHY game food!

Hope everyone has had a better week than I, and is having a fantastic Friday :)
