One girl and a Heating Pad

Oh boy! Remember my little pink comment yesterday?   It happened and now I wish it would go away!  Remember how I said I have two days in bed with a heating pad. Well, yesterday was day #1 and today will be day #2!  It stinks having cramps and a cold!  I wanted to get my cramps out of the way before tomorrow (when I start with Diana) and I’m thankful that happened, but I am miserable!

I had some major cravings yesterday for powdered donuts, cupcakes, cookies and peanut butter M&M’s, but I ate none of it.  Instead, I Googled cupcakes, so I could click on “images” and stare at pages and pages of cupcakes.  (I did the same thing with cookies and cakes!).  I was also craving ice cream with Reese’s peanut butter cups.  I was actually wanting it from Yogurtini. I have never even been there and I want it! I had no idea what that place even was until a couple of weeks ago.  I have since read several blogs where the girls are going to similar places and filling their cup with delicious yogurt and toppings!  Why did I not know about this place BEFORE I started competition prep!?! You can probably guess that there was NO exercise yesterday.  I literally laid in bed with my heating pad and knitted and crocheted in between sneezes and nose blowing.  I was so pathetic.  Justin felt so bad for me.  He would come in every once in a while to check on me and bring me food or water or whatever I needed!

So, here is what I ate (in bed):

Meal #1: Oats and protein

Meal #2: Justin’s Vitamin C Packed Protein Shake

Meal #3:  Egg whites, turkey bacon and gluten free toast

Meal #4: Almonds and BCAA’s with added glutamine (no picture of the drink!)

Meal #5: Tacos!

I did not eat the tacos in bed.  As soon as I was done though, I hurried back to my heating pad and blankets!

I am hopeful that my body will wrap these cramps up today and tomorrow, I will wake up feeling refreshed and ready to go workout with Diana!
