Apologies for no post yesterday- twas a busy day off campus! Probably a good thing we went to Richmond, forgot yesterday was Yard-Sale-a-Palooza in Bridgewater. The biggest holiday of the year. I swear I could barely get out of my garage because there were yard-salers all over creation.
It was great to see the team play against some other people and they did pretty well. I had some green peppers and guacamole before we played and a Lara Bar in between. No real lunch for me, but I wasn't starving. So bfast and snacks were all well and good, until we got to the glorious team dinner. Lasagna, garlic bread, spinach & artichoke dip, pita chips, red velvet cake, candy corn....aaaaaah. I settled for my homemade chicken salad on top of a salad. It would've been better if i was eating in solitude. One of the annoying parts about this challenge is that a million people ask you a million questions. Sometimes it is hard to explain- so I try to keep it simple and sweet. Then they ask if I've lost weight. Oh jeez, here we go again.
Luckily, there was fresh fruit out, so I could mingle and snack like everyone else.
We got back at about 9:15pm or so. After our bus hit a police check point on campus...normal. They actually stopped the bus and asked for the driver's license. Really?
Anyways, got home, watched a little TV and was in bed around 10:30. I had the best sleep I think I've ever had. Literally did not move all night; it was awesome. This morning, breakfast was ok. I had eggs scrambled with proscuitto and green peppers and a side of tomatoes. Added a little cinnamon to my coffee to spice it up. Haha get it? I know, lame.
Had a little date/walnut snack as well, didn't feel satiety from breakfast alone.
Went to support our volleyball team over lunch, and again wasn't starving, so just had a lara bar. Oh also got in a run before that. I worked out 6 days this week, something that hasn't happened in a little while. I usually shoot for 4-5x per week.
I was in football-cooking mode- so here is the spread for the game: turkey chili, guacamole and salsa. I need to figure out what to shuttle the salsa into my gob with....green peppers aren't cutting it. Whoever invented Scoops is a genius. Mind you I consumed these items while those around me had said Scoops, Oktoberfest beer and cupcakes. Brutal.
Luckily the Redskins pulled it out! I still do not like Billy Cundiff, but he pulled through when we needed it. Although, if he would've just hit the 6 yarder he missed earlier, we wouldn't have been in that position. Whatever, a W is a W.
Hard to believe 3 weeks are down! I feel like I'm in a good stride now and am easily handling it. I am actually nervous to be 'finished' and not sure how I will react physically and mentally. It seems weird to me that I am nervous to finish. Will keep you posted on those thoughts.
