Piece of Cake

Good Morning!  I am waking slooooow this morning.  I woke up early, like usual, but am feeling a little hung-over and sluggish.  You’ll see why in the “meals” section!

Yesterday was cloudy and rainy, but I woke up ready to get stuff done.  We did some major grocery shopping.  I wanted to stock up on lots of good food because it’s getting ready to be that time of the month and I want to have food prepped and easy to grab!

Workout

I started the day off with Title Boxing.  For the first time, I took a class not led by Cisco.  He’s out with the flu so another guy took over and it was just as good!  The energy and intensity was not as high as a Cisco class, but I was a sweaty mess by the end (and sore today) so that’s really all that matters!

Later in the morning, I headed down stairs and knocked out this full body workout:

Meals

Meal #1: Gluten free oats with chocolate protein powder

Meal #2: Rudy’s gluten free toast with natural peanut butter, Chobani peach yogurt

Meal #3: Chipotle (brown rice, black beans, fajita veggies, chicken, tomato salsa and tomatillo salsa, lettuce)

Meal #4:  Pretzels (I was cooking soup around this time and didn’t have anything ready to eat)

Meal #5: Home made chicken and vegetable soup.  I can’t believe I forgot to take a picture but I’ll get one today because I’ll definitely be eating this again! The soup is chicken, carrots, onion, peas, green beans, and spinach.

Then I ate a piece of cake. Yellow cake with chocolate icing.

And that, my friends, is why I am feeling hung over.  Honestly, I didn’t think it would bother me since it was only one piece and I haven’t eaten any gluten since last Tuesday.  That piece of cake went to work on my system!

A round of cardio and a lot of water should get me feeling back to normal.

Every month around my T.O.M., I think about a post I read by Healthy Tipping Point about the Diva Cup.  I am so curious about it and want to try it but am little afraid of it.

Have any of you heard of it?  Used it? Know anyone that uses it?
