Monday Fryday

Monday...ugh! I do not blame the day of the week, I blame myself. Riding high on the joys of Sunday, I kicked my ass outta bed for tae bo. I got all of 2 minutes in to it before I realised I was dog-ass tired and wasn't going to be any good to anyone! So pilates it was, and I still nearly fell asleep doing that! Obviously my body wasn't healed and ready after yesterday's Great Skate. That set the tone for the rest of the day, literally battling to keep my eyes open at work. There was a funk in the office where everyone was in a sleepy spell, which didn't help matters at all. And when I came home I completely passed out. Nice. I must have needed it, and if it's me healing, I'm all for it - as long as it stays at home!

I think that a big contributing factor was my carb-heavy breakfast. I left my protein powder in the back of my wifey's car so I returned to my old brekkie, porridge with berry yoghurt and a piece of rye with pb as I was running out the door to keep me chuggin'. Krissy Krash told me that oatmeal/porridge turns to sugar in your bloodstream within about an hour (carb to glucose, I think, I'll get back to you) so I think that my body, being completely un-used to it now, peaked out and crashed down and stayed WAY down. Lesson learned! As I type this, a little lightbulb went off in my head: "uh, duh, use egg whites!". I have a feeling we were out of that too, though. And my long life milk was with the protein powder. And my second Emergency Coffee at about 10am killed me and made me feel really queasy all day. Suckah.

•5:30 Porridge w cinnamon and berry yoghurt
•6:30 Rye w pb
•10:00 apple that was GROSS and I only ate half
•12:30 Salad and a big hunk o' salmon - nom nom yum - and a Pink Lady Orgasmapple
•6:20 Trail Mix nut bar
•7:00 Chickpea curry with brown rice - heeeeeaven!

I tried to not have another snack as I'd already had the one-and-a-half apples and the pb, however due to my timing it was pretty counter-productive. And, let's face it, I was tired-eating, and it kept me away from the chips.
