Hey friends,
So, if I’m being honest… (and I am) I’ve been allowing my foot injury to keep me from doing any major calorie burning for about 2 months. Here is the timeline, as I figure it.
December 13th, I went for a 4 mile run. On the 14th, I woke up and could barely walk.
On January 1, I started practicing yoga at an amazing studio in my town, and I could NOT be more happy with the progress I’ve experienced in my yoga practice.
On January 21st, I went to the podiatrist for the first time, and learned that I have a textbook case of plantar fasciitis. I was prescribed NO weight bearing activity, but was told I could swim, use the recumbent bike, and do some yoga (careful with poses that cause me to be on my toes or apply great pressure to my feet (plank on toes, some lunging)
So… while I’ve done some walking, one jazzercise class (before I saw the doc), and yoga a couple times most weeks… I’ve not had a good hard sweat in a while.
Sad, isn’t it? I’ve wanted to run so bad, that I’ve let it sour my opinion of other activities and foster feelings of laziness!
So, today, I went to the school weight/equipment room, and went to town on the recumbent bike. It was pretty okay, made my knees feel a little weird… but it made me sweat, and I REALLY missed that! 
As far as today’s eats, I started with yogurtoats, my favorite breakfast… I made it with the new yoplait greek (I’m testing the new yoplait and dannon varieties) topped with some fresh raspberries. As always, this always looks awful, but tastes YUM
Yogurtoats included-
-Strawberry Yoplait Greek yogurt
-bottom of the Bob’s Red Mill thick rolled oats, probably 1/2 cup
-8 or 9 raspberries
For lunch, we had a local dinner company bring some eats, I had about a 1/2 to 3/4 c serving of a mexican casserole, 2 slices of honeydew, and a few bites of a chicken tortilla soup broth, that was tomato based, (and totally chock full of cilantro, AKA DEVIL HERB so I hated it and didn’t eat more than a couple slurps)
In the afternoon, there was a giant bowl of banana pudding, and I had one teaspoon full. When I went back later to grab a pic… it was licked clean. haha. It was good. 
I also had most of an apple later in the afternoon, and about 5 bites of a mushroom risotto that was going to be lunch, before I found it was catered.
Dinner, we decided fast food was on the agenda, as we’ve not stocked up on dinners at the store, so I had 5 nuggets from wendy’s most of a plain baked potato (with some newman’s ranch) and grapes. (I may have had a few bites of Daron’s frosty too. 
)
I’m sleepy, so I’m going to go to bed early tonight! I’ve got to get ready for my trip, 2 coworkers and I are going to Austin for a conference and we leave on wednesday! woot!
