As some of you know (or don’t), I don’t post every single thing that goes into my mouth. Some things are just not as exciting to post. I got an email; however, on Sparkpeople in I could take a picture of everything that goes into my body for a day. They were curious because on days that I burn 1700 calories, how can I just eat that much and not disappear. This isn’t feasible to photograph every little thing every day but I decided for the next three days everything that goes into my body will be photographed.
5:30 am-morning practice. Coffee and Cliff Z Bar. I’m just trying to work through all these Cliff Z bars I bought a while back, so I can find a new prepractice snack. Similar to when I bought an overflow of Cliff Pria Bars hehe.
Insert practice here:
5700 yards
700 Warmup
3X (100 breastroke-100butterfly-100 kick)
400 IM
600 kick
600 pull
10X150 Interval
4X300 Swim
Practice today actually went by very quickly and I didn’t mind it too much.
8:45am-I was starving though and basically ran to my house to cook some breakfast. I ended up having a bowl resembling pancakes and oats, I’m not too sure. My pancakes didn’t stay together on the griddle today so I mashed them all up and added athenos blueberry Greek yogurt. My breakfast contained all the following ingredients cooked in the bowl.
½ cup pumpkin
1 scoop Isopure protein
¼ cup egg substitute
½ kashi go lean cereal (crushed)
2 cups strawberries
1 package of Athenos Blueberry Yogurt
It was quite good-just not the most viewable breakfast I have had in a while.
11:00am ¼ cup pumpkin and 4 ounces of Oikos Greek Honey yogurt. I love pumpkin and yogurt and that combination will never get old. It also makes a perfect prerace snack.
Insert a run here. I hurt my foot really badly and don’t think I’ll be running again today. It is the top of the foot but I think it is lingering from the hill workout I did yesterday erg.
1:00pm-A pizza wrap. I used Josephs flat bread flax wrap (from BJS), turkey pepperonis, 2 pieces of provolone cheese, and 4 tablespoons of salsa. I also dipped it in 6 ounces of Greek God Yogurt. I don’t normally have this much yogurt in one day but apparently, it’s a Greek day.
3:30pm-Aram and I made protein cakes. I tried mine with beets and he tried his plain vanilla. It was pretty good but I think I’ll stick with chocolate. Mine looks more like a donut though. Where the middle went is a mystery to me.
5:30 for dinner tonight Aram and I made more Tilapia and sweet potato crisps. One batch seasoned with cinnamon and one batch seasoned with salt and pepper. It was a rather simple meal but I enjoyed it.
Today was a rather productive day getting school work done as well. I finally got some of my education assignments done that I had been avoiding all weekend boo. I like typing papers but this essay was just not my cup of tea.
Incase you wondered, I also had four cups of coffee as well today. Coffee is just brown and unphotogenic hehe.
How much coffee do you have daily? Love it or hate it? Cold or hot? Skim or cream? Splenda or sugar?
