Weekend Come and Gone

Published January 20, 2013 by vegalot

Oh how I love Sundays. Relaxing on the couch watching Netflix, drinking coffee and preparing for the upcoming week! I picked up some hours this morning but was out at 10:30 am so can’t really complain. I was not feeling oatmeal with morning so I began my day with a cliff bar – the last of the pack :(. I came home and started preparing lunch that included: beans, kale, spinach, arugula, nutritional yeast, chia seeds, broccoli, and green peppers with a poppy seed dressing (vegan at Aldi – love that store!). I also made some quinoa for the week.

Today is my off day from the gym and my legs will definitely benefit from the rest. My quads are screaming – but in a good way because I know I worked them good.

Some goals from this coming week:

  1. Take a spin class at the gym. I got really into spin when I lived in South Carolina but since moving back North, I haven’t had the guts to go myself.
  2. Lower my salt intake. I feel like I’m consuming WAY too much salt from my canned beans, soups and spices I seem to add to everything.
  3. Stay committed to my training schedule
  4. Have a great weekend in Maine. I’m going to visit one of my best friends from college who moved up there a little over a year ago. I have yet to see her new house. She had a baby in July and I am in love with her son Smileso it will be wonderful to see them
  5. Enjoy this journey and trust this process
