Day 3 (July 23)

Breakfast - I think I skipped it, because I was super hungry at like 9. Was able to stave off the hunger with my chia seed water (Are Chia seeds Paleo?).

About 10:00 AM discovered my Nook was missing

Alright, now that that statement it out of the way (what am I suppose to do without my Nook? Part of me needed an upgrade anyways and I just looked at the Nook HD+ and it is a reasonable price, but I could spend the money elsewhere). 

Snack (sometime between 10:30-11:30) - had my cauliflower-cilantro "rice", because I realized that I hadn't eaten breakfast. 

Lunch (12:30) - the sad piece of chicken that was leftover Boston Market from Sunday. Ice Cream (Chocolate and Caramel Sea Salt) leftover from my adventure with the Uber Ice Cream truck on Friday.

Dinner - one piece of a filipino dessert. and tastings of my future lunch. I wasn't really hungry. If I was hungry, I masked it with water. I know, bad, but I really didn't feel like eating. But looking forward to the lunch I made.

Exercise: I went through half of the Fitdeck Bodyweight (okay, probably only 1/3) and I did the advance level for each card. Took about 30 minutes. I also went to Vinyasa.

Reality Check

Stepped on the scale last night - 129.9.

Uhh, the heaviest I have ever been. Need to stop saying I'll work out and actually work out. Plan was to wake up at 4:00 AM, do some sort of workout at home and then take the early bus to run in San Francisco.

What happened instead? I either turned off the alarm, never turned it on, or slept through it, because I didn't wake up until my 5:30 alarm. Still tempted to at least go run in San Francisco, but by the time I finished brushing my teeth and putting on his contacts, it was 5:44. So what did I do? I played Candy Crush. Seriously, not cool. After I used all my lives, I then did a few FitDeck Bodyweight cards quickly.

Plan today: take the yoga mat and fit deck to the park. Workout. Go to yoga at 6:45.

I need to fix the number on the scale. I know it's only a number, but my body has been giving me signs that I've been ignoring for a while. Hope that the number on the scale will push me to get better. I cannot let life and laziness get in the way of my health. Especially when someone decides to cancel an afterwork meeting two hours before it's set to start. No tangent.

Day 2 (July 23)

Breakfast: One of the chicken drumsticks that I made yesterday for today's lunch. (Delicious). Grande green iced tea, unsweetened. Very Berry Coffee Cake. Tea and Cake from Starbucks.

Not Paleo, but delicious.

Snack: egg tart, because it was what was suppose to be dessert yesterday

Lunch: leftover (from Friday) Bacon Meatloaf sandwich from American Eatery, only ate the meatloaf portion because last week there was just way too much mayo. It satiated me, but I could have eaten more.

Snack: Vegetable dressing/stuffing and Sweet Corn from Boston Market.

Snack: Egg Tart, cause we still had some when I had at home

Dinner: Chow Mein - cabbage and pork with sriracha (Shark Brand)

Snack: two turon.

I ate until I was satiated. Or I ate because I was bored. Need to stop eating due to boredom.

Day 1 (July 22)

Day 1 - Paleo fail. I knew it was going to be bad, but I didn't think it would be as bad as it was.

As mentioned in the first post, breakfast was the banana, tea w/ half and half and chia seeds. I refilled the tea during the morning because I was starving. I might have also had a handful of the tangy fruit mix sitting at my desk. All was well and I was on track to eat the lunch I prepared...

Then 11:30 rolls around and a co-worker asks if I would like to go out with him and others to celebrate his birthday. My first thought is that his birthday isn't until the 22nd. Then I look at the calendar, oopsies - the 22nd is today (yesterday - Monday). They are going to Perbacco. Umm...yummy gnocci or my left over Boston Market. Hanging out with co-workers that I like or eating by myself and reading a book on my Nook. Easy decision. I went with the group to Perbacco.

Lunch: two breadsticks (they are really really thin, not the breadsticks you get from Olive Garden or pizza places), three pieces of foccacia, Gnocci ( herb and spinach ricotta w/ basil pesto, summer squash, fiorelli and green beans), dessert: dark chocolate lavender bonet, caramel crema, and caramel, puffed jasmine rice, cocoa nib florentine. Delicious. Not Paleo. Very Full.

Dinner: Still full from lunch, so I don't recall eating much. I know I had a carrot and possibly 2 egg tarts. 

I made lunch for my sisters. I modified the sage turkey legs in Practical Paleo. I used chicken drumsticks instead of turkey legs. I didn't have any sage salt or dried sage around, so I used dried italian seasoning. Also packed a mixed green salad w/ leftover bell peppers and shredded carrots and a bag of cherries. For my own lunch, I plan on eating the leftover Boston Market originally meant for Monday.

Let's try Paleo

purchased Practical Paleo
Read said book
purchased some/most ingredients for first week of recipes.

Last evening: dug out the food processor. shredded carrots. done for the night. I hate prep work and cleaning. Can I get some kitchen elves to prep and clean for me?

July 22, 2013
This morning: packed leftover Boston Market for lunch. chicken, corn, vegetable dressing. and an egg tart

Breakfast: banana, tea, half and half, chia seeds

Woot Woot!

So on my blog Run to Fly, I was writing out a sentence and thought that Life and Laziness would be a great name for a blog. This stemmed from the fact that life and laziness got in the way of my training. Decided to see if it was available and it was! Yay me. Not sure what this blog will be about quite yet. Likely everything that doesn't fall into running and flying. You know, life and laziness. :)
