Breakfast

Had a smoothie and tea for breakfast. Instead of getting better, my sickness is just getting worse…i do not get it! Help!

My view for today.

Fever Reducer: Did you know that putting raw onion on the bottom of your feet, wrapped in a warm towel is a natural fever reducer? It actually works too.

I am desperate today, I was starting to feel better and then I took a turn for the worse. High fever, not eating and terrible migraines. What is happening to my body? I never get sick like this…

Tear.

I am so sorry i have been away, I was terribly sick and this week was my first week back at it and it was a slow and still-healing one. It was a long week and I am still stuck with a terrible cough.

Breakfast

Some yummy fresh watermelon.

Usually I don’t do the ‘more fruit, less veggie’ thing in my smoothie, but lately I have been craving them!

Lunch

Skipped.

Dinner

Chili…made with these beautiful peppers and tomatoes from our garden.

(forgot to take a picture of my actual dinner…Oops!)

-No workout today, trying to let my body heal.

Today was not my day…yesterday’s BS bled over into this day and it just sucked! I didn’t take any pics of what I ate or drank…I was just out of it all day.

I drank like 10 cups of hot tea and did not have any coffee today(maybe this is why I had a splitting headache practically all day!?!?) I ate a veggie taco and some tortilla chips for lunch and I did workout when I got home…

I also found this neat saying online that is so very true, I felt so much better after I worked out today I wish I would have done this yesterday…

Tonight will consist of a few drinks, a movie with my love and some stove popped popcorn.

Cheer’s to my Friday!

I was so incredibly tired last night I was too lazy to do my post, so that is happening for you now!

Yesterday was not my best day…

Started off okay…

My many drinks of the day…

1. My usual hot water with lemon to start my day

2. Coffee (Just a small cup) Next week I’m going cold turkey…hot tea only!

3. A cold cup of green tea

4. My new favorite, strawberry and cucumber water

5. My smoothie(too much Kale today, but still good)

6. My usual, Green Tea and Every Day Detox (I often mix this up a bit, but I usually have about 4 cups of my different teas a day. ‘Yogi’ teas and ‘Traditional Medicinals’ are my favs )

Lunch consisted of leftovers(pasta salad and quiche) once again.

Workout was a little weird today…

I ran like I usually do on Wednesdays, but had to cut it a little short because my stupid leg started throbbing. I swear if this leg injury ever goes away I will be a happy camper. About 8 months ago I was training for a half marathon and I decided to go for a long run one day…a part of the course I ran was grass and as I was running through the grass portion my foot got caught in a tiny whole, I didn’t fall or anything, I just kind of lost my balance, but ever since then my right leg is constantly throbbing when I run. I was able to finish the half marathon(barely) I even took a month off of running after the marathon, but the pain has never gone away completely. It’s just frustrating to have a passion for running and then have something like this hinder you from doing it as often as I would like to.

Anyways, when I got home from my short and painful run, I was so exhausted…like completely exhausted. I was complaining to my husband and he suggested that I take the rest of the night off and not finish the rest of my workout schedule. Now you should know…I am the type that feels so very guilty if I do not workout…I realize this just causes unnecessary stress and in turn just makes me fatter, but I just cannot seem to overcome it!  Anyways, after much convincing by my wonderful husband I took the rest of the night off…it was actually very nice, I think it IS necessary to listen to your body and rest when it is begging you to. Our bodies need to repair at some point right? So although I plan to finish this challenge I will do so while listening to my body.

Dinner was yummy, I just had a small piece of fish tonight, not very hungry!

Before and After

Salmon, Brown Rice with Veggies and Artichoke, which since I didn’t eat any last night I am looking forward to eating it tonight!

Talk to you soon,
