In case you didn't gather it from the title - I am kicking serious butt today! Oh yeah! Woke up around 9 ish this morning and after getting ready for the day I had some Rice Chex for breakfast. Last night I went to the grocery store so I have a bunch of really healthy food in apartment now. Question though - can you guys all chip in with yoru favorite types of apples? I bought Granny Smith because I like that they're 'crunchy' and tart - Red Delicious are too mushy for me, and sorta too sweet. BUt what are like Fuji Apples, Jazz Apples, Etc? I like Chex - but it was a hard decision at the store between Rice, Whole Wheat, and Corn. Rice had the least amount of calories, but also the least amount of Fiber and Protein. Anyone have a take on calories vs. other nutrients?
Anyway after breakfast I rode my bike to the campus post office to mail some packages I sold on Half.com and pick up my package - which happened to be my BRAND NEW BENTO BOX! I'm so excited because it is SO awesome! I cannot wait to start taking cold lunches so I could use it. For a snack I used my brand new apple corer and 1/2 of one of these cool personal caramel packets (Low-fat). I'm allergic to fruit (it used to be much worse but I'm growing out of it) so having it with caramel helped the tingle go down a bit. What are your favorite fruits to snack on raw - or maybe with a little additive - and also your favorite veggies. I bought celery and broccoli, as well as some yummy salad.
After my snack and watching my favorite TV show (King of Queens) I went to the gym to work out for 50 minutes. 20 of those were spent on the Eliptical and then the other 30 on a bike. I burned over 450 calories! Yeah! Now I am going through my iPod and creating a work out play list - because I can tell that I get unmotivated as I go through to find a better song. I'm pretty beat now - so no strength training for me - perhaps some lunch...
Thanks again for your support everyone! It really does mean more than you can imagine!
