Good eats

I was feeling a bit discouraged with the scale 

yesterday. It felt like I was eating well and still getting

all my run days in but the scale was not reflecting the

work. So I skipped the cereal and opted for

my smoothie, same lunch {veggie soup}, had

a big cup of yogurt with bran buds around 4, then

went to the gym and went on the bike for 45 min

and then home for quinoa greek salad {YUM}.

Down another 2 this morning. 

I can get away with eating less on non work days

it's the work days that kill me. I felt really good 

heading to bed last night. The last thing I wanted to

do at 7pm last night was go to the gym

but it felt good. And it was a good way to realize

how many more calories you burn running!

In 40 min on the bike I burned 300

calories {and sweating buckets}  where as 40 min of 

run/walk burns 450. Kinda crazy!
