Back on track after a week of crappy eats. The Warrior Dash took a lot out of me but I continued to try to hit it hard at the gym. I think my body tried to overcompensate for the lack of fuel by upping my craving for unhealthy carbs, fat and sugar.

Dinner was salad, which tasted so much better than the protein shakes I’ve been living on lately. I haven’t been going food shopping and therefore have been either eating junk or drinking protein shakes. Oy!

I think the lack of solid nutrients was making me bitchy, because my mood really altered-for the better-an hour after my salad.

Now I’m with the boyfriend, watching Rescue Me on Netflix.

Nite Fitblrs.

* Ok, so I start trying to clean eating tomorrow, and seriously I’m trying to do it now and all I can say is WHAH!!! I looked at the sugar content of my yogurt and you know how much a tiny container of that stuff had?? 12 grams!!! What the hell?!?! Soy yogurt is suppose to be healthy.  I still have a bunch in my fridge, but I guess I’ll have to consider them “dessert” until they are done. I’m really going to have to start cooking for this thing to work. Tomorrow I’ll be looking up the “how to” eat clean thing. Perhaps I’ll post on it?
