Hope everyone had a great day! Today’s post will be short and will just cover the basics…I am going to get very sleepy in a hurry. I just took Benadryl…my skin had been horrible this past week, and normally I don’t break out like that unless it’s an allergic reaction to nuts. I know I haven’t had any, and I had no idea why it would be, but my mom reminded me my allergy tests showed a minor coconut allergy-I never noticed a reaction before, but maybe since I’ve been eating all those quesadillas? I’ll probably make arepas one more time to get a recipe, but after that I’m going to lay off the coconut for a week and see if anything changes! I will try to make a normal flour version of the arepas as well! 🙂
My morning began at 5am…way too early. This is the first week that getting up was nearly impossible! I ran down to the 5:30am November Project. Given how much I was dragging out the door, I was amazed by how good I felt during the workout! I am proud to say that here in week 3, running the stairs definitely is getting easier!
I am out of non-speckled bananas, so breakfast was different today. I hate bananas that have any brown…I’m more of a green banana girl! Breakfast was a big slice of lemon-blueberry banana bread, and a mug of milk (because I don’t own glasses).
I left early enough to grab an extra big coffee-a grande cappuccino.Â
This was my lifeline today. Although I was on the edge of over-caffeinated early in the morning, I was still kicking into the afternoon. Tonight will be an early bedtime though!
Lunch was leftovers from last night‘s dinner.
And snack in the afternoon was more banana bread.
After work was Crossfit, where we worked on cleans and handstands, both in the strength portion and in the WOD. My handstands (against a wall) felt really good today!
Dinner came together quickly. I snacked on some banana bread and pretzels while I cooked the chicken and chopped up veggies for a Greek salad!
Favorite salad topping?
I’m a HUGE fan of goat cheese!
Mhmm I’m currently snacking on a piece of chocolate chip banana bread at the moment. I’m definitely more of a speckled banana person, though- that’s when they’re actually ripe!
Haha I respectfully disagree 🙂
Yum! This all looks so delicious! I could use a slice of that banana bread!! YUM! So tasty! Also, my fave salad topping is definitely salmon!! YUM! 🙂
Salmon+goat cheese is so good!
I’ve recently found that hard boiled eggs are very good in salads! Where has this been all my life 🙂
Haha and so easy too!
5 AM isn’t that early! My day started at 4:30…
Holy cow…
