Synny667 Posted April 28, 2013 Author Share Posted April 28, 2013 Very productive day for me today. Planted some vegetables, picked up the yard, mowed, hit the gym for leg workout, took dogs for walk and have been working on laundry. The dogs are panting and laying down behaving for a change hahaha. I am now cooling off with a iced herbal tea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Finally took my bike out for a test ride and it is probably the nicest day we have had here yet! Rides like a dream but isn't meant for sprinting hahahaha. Need to get a cheap road bike so I can start practicing. Gonna use this one for cross training to help with my running and lung capacity. It is warm and bright today so my sleeping was affected. I only got about 4 hrs of sleep but hoping it will get back to routine tomorrow. So since I couldn't sleep I prepped a giant bowl of salad for the week, protein waffles for ride home, and now working on some iced decaf coffee. Kinda wishing I could sleep......

Synny667 Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 I have been off cardio for so long aside from running training 3 days a week that I have grown to detest it with a passion again. Figured I had better start adding it back in to help with building my lung capacity for running. It is also time to start logging everything again and really hold myself accountable..... Calories are going to be on the higher side since I have a physically demanding job of lifting, rolling and constant moving.

Gaia Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I would binge on everything in sight. This is my mood at night, and this is why I don't have anything in the house! Nothing more depressing than, first allowing yourself to eat anything and everything you can find, and then being too lazy to drive to the store to buy some ice cream or not wanting to deal with all the messy bowls and cookies sheets when whipping up a batch of cookies for yourself. LOL! Peanut butter seems the logical choice for me to binge on! OK, a few chocolate chips are also included . . hee hee. Tonight was popcorn and Kombucha (multi-green: http://synergydrinks.com/index.php/#classic-kombucha ). I am so sensitive to what little alcohol is in it. It was nicely fizzy and had the effect of making me sleepy as usual. First time eating popcorn in a long time. I will probably find out why it has been awhile tomorrow morning perhaps? Didn't really enjoy it as much (I even put Parma! on it - I suppose even a little bit of nutritional yeast with crushed walnuts will up my % of fat for today's total fat macros. . ).

Synny667 Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 The nursing home keeps granola bars, cookies, crackers and the such on hand for residents who get hungry and the store on the home is full of junk food. I wish I had some popcorn right now and it is a good thing my gluten intolerance reared its ugly head or I would of for sure stopped for something to kill the sting of rejection. Instead I have to feel it..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini Forklift Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I can imagine the nursing home stocking every type of biscuit ever invented haha. Could be dangerous, you might need to bike there and back just to keep the calories in check ?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 As long as I don't touch anything and I eat my meals on time i am safe. Also with them bein loaded with gluten I honestly can't et them unless I want to be in pain or sick. I am finally getting my gluten addiction under control. I have gone a full week without it and I am finally getting past the point of craving it. I can look at it and say no thanks you hurt me to much to eat you biking to work wouldn't be a bad idea if motorist around here were cyclist friendly. They like to run them over or off the road......

Mini Forklift Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 There are so many car drivers like that, I've been knocked off before and ended up in hospital. My best friend got hit by an SUV and was in an induced coma for 6 weeks, his strength of character got him back to riding again but he suffered major brain damage. Took him a year to learn to walk again. Hey, happier subject I just posted pics up in my log from my midnight hill run. Thought you might like them MF.

Synny667 Posted May 1, 2013 Author Share Posted May 1, 2013 Ok after a long, stressful and physically demanding night (rolling a 400 lb woman by myself) I have opted to include an extra waffle and 2 mandarin oranges for meal 6. I am also treating myself to a 30 min back massage because omg it is tight!!! I did my 10k training and thought I was gonna fall over crying because my back was so tense and yoga only helped a little bit. The question I was asking myself over and over again was nap or stay up... I decided nap because I need some rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaia Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 The weather is being rather wild this spring, don't you think? My son told me it was snowing/sleeting in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, while it was sunny and over 70 degrees F here in the Lower Peninsula. Very strange.

Synny667 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 Yes very strange as it is snowing and sleeting in Missouri and sticking!!! I had to cover up my garden yet again this spring and fear that I will not get much produce at this rate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synny667 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 Moved my running day to tomorrow because I just don't have the energy today and tomorrow is supposed to be warmer outside and I want to take my run outside. Was really tired this morning after work too and even skipped yoga. Really hungry when I woke up and grateful I made a big bowl of soaked oats!!!

Mini Forklift Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Never heard of almond coconut milk before but boy, that sounds delicious! FWIW, I quite often shift my runs around depending on what the whether is doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
