A crazy day of sorts

I never saw the day coming when I would just be so irritated, frustrated and downright mad at everything!  But it happened, and that was the kinda of day I had on Thursday January 26,2011!  So now that I have made my emotional state known you can only imagine what my eating was like...so let's get at it! 

Breakfast (started off good)
     White chocolate Latte
      Scrambled eggs w/ lentils & spinach

Mid AM Snack
     Greek Yogurt

Mid Am Snack #2
     Bag of Cheetos

Mid Am Snack #3
     Bag of Doritos

Lunch
     Roast Beef Sandwich, a pickle, rootbeer

Dinner
     Jack in the Box:  2 tacos & 4 chicken fingers

Much to my surprise I did go walk after work.  I ventured over to a new spot that I have been wanting to try.  I don't know the distance, but I walked for 40 minutes.  I went to this little park in Culver City off of Jefferson & Duquesne (sp?)  I walked around the park once and it took about 12 minutes.  It's a very small park.  So I decided to start walking down Jefferson.  As I was walking down Jefferson, I stumbled upon a spot with a big sign that said  Baldwin Hills Scenic Overlook Trail.  So I went up it.  And why in the world did I do that?  Oh my goodness the thing was all hills!  I was up so high I could see the ocean!  Needless to say I was exhausted.  But I do want to try the trail again and take a camera with me.  The views from the top are wonderful!

Tuesday January 25th: Sleepiness!

Man, I am not sure what was going on with me yesterday but I was sleepy the entire day!  I left work about 30 minutes early, went home and got in bed and just slept!  I literally felt drained and exhausted.  I had little energy to do anything.  But I am up, bright eyed and bushy tailed this morning.

Here is the uneventful happenings of Tuesday

Breakfast
     White Chocolate Latte
      Scrambled Eggs w/ spinach & lentils

Lunch
     Veggie Plate (broccoli, spinach, lentils, ground turkey)

Snack (Sadly, I thought it would help give me some energy)
     rice krispy treat
     Vanilla wafers

Dinner
     Homemade Salad (lettuce, olives, lentils, ground turkey, italian dressing)

I think I fibered up too much on Tuesday.  I had so much gas its ridiculous.  And I dont know if anyone has ever experience this but I have really bad gas pains in my back.  Have you had gas pains in your back?  It is really painful!  Sorry to be discussing this, I know this conversation has taken an ugly turn, so I will stop.  Talk to you later!

Monday Recap

WOW.  My apologies, When I got home last night, blogging was the furthest thing from my mind.  So here I am blogging to you today.  Monday was a decent day.  I have not been keeping my calorie & fiber log, but I know yesterday was a high fiber day.  Things were flowing..ohhh wee.   Well let's get to the important stuff.

Breakfast
     White Chocolate Latte
      Scrambled eggs w/ lentils & spinach

Lunch
     Veggie Plat (Broccoli, Brussell Sprouts, Lentils, Ground Turkey)
     20 ounce bottle of Pepsi

Dinner
     Pollo Bowl from El Pollo Loco

Water Drinking was low today...I only had about 4 glasses of water.  But I will up that today so I can help get some of this "fiber" out of me!  As you know Monday is weigh in day.  I was only down 1 pound.  Nothing for me to worry about.  I always feel like PMS time teh scales are never pleasant.  But such is life. 

Workout - an attempt to push myself
Did another 30 minute stint on the treadmill.  Still doing walk/jog intervals.  I pushed myself today and did 2 jog intervals at 5mph!  And good greif I felt it in my legs and abs as the day progressed. 
Calories burned: 389.2; distance 1.83.  I am still aiming to make 2 miles in my 30 minutes.  I should stop being so lazy and walk faster on the walk intervals!  :0)  That will be next week's area for improvement.

Talk to you later!
