Now this feels like Fall

by Lauren on September 25, 2009

It hasn’t really felt like fall much lately until today! It’s been hot and humid and really sunny, but today is cool and rainy! ick!

As much as I love waking up and working out, there are days when I just love to do nothing. I’m feeling kind of lazy today so I am going to make this a quick post. Yesterday after lunch I had 2 carrots and some Justin’s Organic honey peanut butter. I found these little packets at the store, and I love them! They are great to just grab and go. I only had half the packet of PB.

When I got home I had half this Kashi pizza. It is so good, but really not that filling. However this may be my new favorite pizza. I really enjoy frozen pizza, and this one is loaded with veggies, has a very thin crust, and just an overall great flavor. I had every intention of adding more veggies to it, but when I got home at 8pm I just wanted to eat.

I had to make another mini pizza using a whole wheat tortilla, some pasta sauce, and 1 piece of cheese. I also topped that one with mushrooms. It was actually so good that I may have to make pizza’s like this more often. Sorry no pics.

I also had such a crazy day at work (I broke a bottle of wine right before I was leaving and I was closing the store all by myself). ughh. So I needed a glass of vino when I came home. But I made sure to only have 2 glasses.

This morning I decided to take the day off of working out because the weather is so icky. Also I have my 8K tommorow morning, and I want to make sure I’m not sore and ready to go. Instead I just cleaned my apt, did my morning exercises and made this awesome breakfast.

Two multi-grain waffles topped with TJ’s Natural Peanut Butter and some berries.

I took blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries, and put them in the microwave for about 1 min and 20 sec. They got all gooey and liquidy-almost like a syrup.

This breakfast was awesome!

Everyday I try to do my morning exercises of leg lifts and kneeling push-ups. I really hate push-ups, but I know how great they are for your arms. Yesterday I was poking around on the blogs and I came across Sarah’s blog. She did a post on demonstrating all these great ways to do push-ups, and I mean-look at her arms! KILLER toned arms. I am willing to try some of these push-ups variations to tone my arms. I think my arms are one of my biggest challenges. I would love to have killer toned arms.

The nerves are starting to kick in for my race tomorrow. I know it’s not a big race or an very important race, but its my first race. I want to do well, but I know that I will just do my best and that will be fine.

What do you like to top your waffles with?
