Day 13, lucky thirteen!

Overall my energy today was low. For non-workout related reasons. I didn't sleep well, my baby boy was up at 5:45am, I was running late to work, I made someone else's day worse at work accidentally (Jewish guilt pours, it doesn't drizzle), my back was achy and my contacts were bonkers all day and driving me batty.

Alas, the day went on and so I kept moving forward (quick! Name the movie that comes from). 

I didn't take a pic of my packed stash today as I was in a hurry and forgot. Oh! That's what I forgot this morning. [hangs head]

Breakfast was a 1 Purple of a 1/2 banana and 1 Red of Greek yogurt with 1/2 Purple topping of fresh diced strawberries. 

For a snack I enjoyed pistachios and 1/2 Red of 3 slices of ham. Weird? Yes. Good? Oh yes. 

Lunch was amazing: 
1-1/2 Greens of a cabbage, tomato and onion mix drizzled with white wine vinegar (overnight) and peeled carrots. 1/2 Red of 3 slices of Turkey. 
2 Yellows, the first was black beans and the second 2 small whole wheat organic tortillas. Finally, 1 Orange of the 21dayfix Dijon Vinagrette (recipe in booklet). 

Here's a better shot: 
This was sofreakinggood!! And man, oh man, healthy as ever. 

I drank my weight in water... Maybe. Ok not that much, but I sure did drink a whole lot of water today. Did you? I believe I consumed about 64oz. Helllloooo hydration. 

Later on I made a man-who-isn't-on-diet friendly meal: 
1 Red of pork loin smothered in dijon mustard, parsley, black pepper and baked until done with a side of 2 Greens,  spinach, mushrooms, onion mix sautéed in lemon juice and EVOO and a sliced tomato. The man got a side of a traditional Italian pasta dish: spaghetti, EVOO, red pepper flakes, minced garlic and parm.... instead of tomatoes. He really liked the pork. :) go me! 

Please note I did NOT eat any of the pasta. I only made it for him. That's a no, no, because I already had 2 yellows today. 

I was exhausted and just wanted to lay around and do nothing.... 
Even after all my stressors today. Guess what? I STILL DID MY WORK OUT. No excuses here. CardioFix routine for me tonight... All I have to say about that is: 
I hate burpees. I do. Mostly because I suck at them... I'll get better some day. 

Signing off for some hopefully good sleep. 

Day 13 is done! 8 more days! 


I'm so sweaty and I know it.
