TUESDAY EATS
10:30am Snack: the Green Monster held me over until my morning snack. Oikos Greek Yogurt With Flax Granola.
Lunch 1pm: A Salad with Romaine and Spinach,cucumbers,carrots,peppers, and a sliced Gala apple.
And an Amy’s Burrito…mmmmm
This lunch didn’t feel me up, an hour later I had one of these, best buy yet a box of 5 for under $2!
4pm Pre-Workout Snack: Asian Pear+ Light Cheddar stick from TJ’s.
Track Workout was OUTSIDE, thanks to the time change. I did 6 miles, some warm up, then 2X200’s, 2X400’s, and 2X800’s at 6:30pace. Also a long nice cool down:)
7:30 pm Dinner: Taco Tuesday! I finally found the La Tortilla’s at TJ’s this weekend, boy have I been missing out. I made two turkey tacos with cilantro, red peppers,light cheese blend,diced tomatoes, and a dollop of Greek yogurt.
On the side I enjoyed some black eyed peas and a small simple salad.
When I got home after my intense TRACK workout! I was so happy to see MyMixGranola came in! Bobbi’s Granola Greatness:) Review to come soon! Thanks FRIENDS!
After Dinner I had the last of my Greek yogurt, about 3/4 c and some of my mix mmmm…loved it!
WEDNESDAY WORKOUT
I woke up at 5am this morning to run with some friends. It was so dark out and SO cold! I bundled up and made it out for a good 5 miles, my body was very tired from working out 5 straight days in a row, I will definitely be taking off from running tomorrow.
I made some Nature’s Path Flax Plus waffles, topped with Naturally Nutty Flax and Hemp Seed PB, 1/2 Banana, and some agave nectar. I also had a juicy and fresh picked orange. For some extra protein I had a little bit of my Odwalla Vanilla Al’Mondo.
