I know I am. I even went to the webpage to snoop around and ended up taking the “Which Top Chef Judge Are You?” Quiz. I am Gail, which is cool with me because out the three I would want to be her, Tom 2nd and Padma 3rd.
My muffin DID NOT hold me this morning and I found myself heading into my prune bag around 10:30 to keep me until lunch. I was kind of sad about this, but felt that it would happen. Maybe it was all mental?
I was ready to eat again around 12:30.
I used my leftover lentils to make a flatout wrap this morning with spinach and hot sauce. I also had an overflowing Greek Chobani plain yogurt with pumpkin granola and a white CT nectarine.
I can’t forget my Adora disk! I am down to the last one of these and will have to stop by the dangerous Whole Foods soon.
I had a little water bottle malfunction with a lemon seed!
I had the same afternoon stack as yesterday and it was delicious again. Good thing it was the same…I forgot to take a picture.
________________________________
I ran 6.56 miles today in 58:36! That is the furthest I have run EVER. The best part about it is that I included hills AND I felt great after it. I could have kept going, and I know that means I can really run a 1/2 marathon if I train at it. I am still pretty scared, but knowing I am 1/2 way there and feeling good really boosts my confidence. Yes I am tooting my own horn here!

Dinner involved more cleaning out. Angel hair pasta, frozen edamame, frozen asparagus, frozen shrimp and 1/2 an onion – gone.
I marinated the shrimp on fresh grated ginger, jalapeno and the juice of two limes before I left for me run – so they soaked for about 2 hours. I heated all of this up in a skillet and put it over pasta.
I also made a little veggie plate for Nick and I to split with red wine vinegar mustard dressing for dipping. Tomatoes from CT and MD gardens, cuc, carrot.
My Mommy’s tomato was so delicious! Thanks mom!
We are settling in for Top Chef, why is it on sooooo late???!?!!? I am hoping to watch from bed and not fall asleep during it. Oh getting old is so much fun!
******Big news! Biggest Loser Bios are up!!!! The theme is “second chances”?*******
Am I the only one excited about this?
I can’t wait for the BL premiere! I seriously wrote it on the calendar LOL.
