Mini Forklift Posted November 22, 2012 Share Posted November 22, 2012 What brought the ankle pain on, nothing to do with the calf training? Hope it's nothing too serious. Much planned for the weekend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 Not sure what brought it on but was hurting yesterday. Plans for the weekend include possibly if my ankle feels better will be running training, job hunting, and try to figure out how I am going to afford my birthday dinner.

Synny667 Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 My friends and I are going out for sushi. I have mad money set aside and might see if I can sell a wrap, shawl and blanket. My dinner is the same day as your meet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synny667 Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Finished off the crustless pumpkin pie and I don't feel one bit guilty! 746 calories throughout the entire day along with 3c fiesta black beans and 1c brown rice, a whole sweet potato, a whole russet potato, 1 serving of mac and chreese, my overnight oats, and double protein shake. Usually on Thanksgiving I would have had an entire Field Roast roast, 3 sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, 4-6 dinner rolls, cranberry sauce, 2 slices pumpkin pie, 2 slices apple pie and a slice of cherry pie....

Mini Forklift Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Yum, you have eaten well! Probably a dumb question but what's a double protein shake? You just put an extra shot in it or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Yeah just 2 servings of protein. I think the pie and the fiesta beans and rice were the best part of the entire meal. Might throw in another protein shake for good measure or just pass out.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Synny667 Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Errands ran and tried to hit up the bulk items, fresh veggies, and got coconut to make milk, and some other stuff. I spent more than I wanted to..... But I think I am set for about 2 weeks. Ordered another 4 lbs of protein to go with the 3 1/2 I have now. Will be checking into food stamps and food pantries next week for a little bit of assistance. Keeping a positive outlook on this. I really did need a vacation from work but ready to get back into a routine. Looks like I am going to the hockey game alone tonight since none of my friends seem to either be in town or are ignoring the free ticket. Oh well! I will have fun by myself!

Synny667 Posted November 23, 2012 Author Share Posted November 23, 2012 Lol yes i know how to milk a coconut Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 The hockey game was awesome! The company I ended up keeping was even better. I got to sit with a group from the gym including my delightful yoga instructor and her husband. I finally made a batch of coconut milk and will see how it is in the morning in my overnight oats. I know it will have some healthy fats and I might actually not have to use my coconut oil since it produced some just from blending up the coconut. Will probably use that for my hair to help keep my hair soft and shiny I might soak some dates next time and use that water in the milk for a hint of sweet. BTW I really should invest in a better blender...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 I didn't think I would ever use it again but I did.... my down comforter. I have had it a since before I went even vegetarian and my gut is telling me not to get rid of it right now. For all you Celsius fans it is -5 here right now and I have a very drafty house with no insulation lol. I didn't notice any difference in my oats with the coconut milk so will try a little glass today to just taste it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 Ok i know i am not supposed to eat gluten but when my favorite vegan bakery has "chedder sausage" scones i can't stop myself from getting one. Bought another pound which will have to last me period..... Got me a chai tea latte too.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbear666 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 what is a chai tea latte? any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted November 24, 2012 Author Share Posted November 24, 2012 It is a spiced black tea made with cinnamon, cardamom, cloves, pepper and ginger mixed with milk and sweetened. I love them especially during the colder months. The place I go to makes theirs fresh not from a box like Starbucks. I really need to get the stuff so I can make it myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrbear666 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 hmmm might have to try and find some, minus the milk tho soya milk doesnt go in hot drinks very well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
