Training + Eating: This is what happens when I leave the house

Overall, I didn’t do too bad. Could have been worse. Just a few weeks ago, it would have been much worse. I left the house without eating lunch so that forced me to grab something at a fast-food place. There is absolutely nothing healthy on the Sonic menu. I didn’t have time for much since I was heading the the movies to watch Free Solo. I am super proud that I was able to enjoy a movie without missing the popcorn and candy. Yay!

I didn’t realize the vegan restaurant was near my second stop so I had to stop in. The menu is overwhelming so I asked the girl behind the counter what her favorite item was and ordered that. I could have made healthier choices, but damn was it worth it. That Philly Cheesesteak was good!!

I am also proud that I made it through Trader Joe’s without buying a single junk food item, unless you count the vegan cream cheese as junk food (which I do not). I got so many great frozen bags of veggies and grains that can quickly be heated up and tossed with dressing for a fast meal.

I wasn’t hungry when I got home but I really wanted to eat that Un-Lox cream cheese (if you’ve ever had, you know why. It is addicting). So I could have eaten some healthy leftovers or at least measured out what I was going to eat, but I don’t think I was overindulgent and I did decide against a second can of Mountain Dew (even though I really wanted one).

I didn’t drink as much water as I would have liked but honestly, I don’t want to spend time in public bathrooms unless I can help it.

Overall, not bad, but lots of room for improvement. And I still need to make time for working out.
