Starting the week off right, by maintaining goals

I have successfully done four of my goals today! YAY! That is truly something to celebrate.  I always feel over ambitious on Monday's when I write my goals, but I really want to hit that 50 pound mark before the race, so I NEED to keep it going. 


Last night instead of going to a floor event with dessert pizzas, I made myself an awesome berry, whipped cream, and a sprinkle of home made granola dessert. 
Tonight I did have a half cup of plain frozen yogurt at the dining center, but I didn't add any toppings or have a cookie so I definitely count that as an accomplishment.
Successfully maintaining my goal to make myself dessert. 

I ran outside today and went to the gym! DOUBLE AWESOME :) 
Successfully checking one of my three runs off before my Sunday long run

I drank 9 bottles of water yesterday and today! Woop Woop! 

I made myself coffee yesterday and today as well, hopefully I stick to it again tomorrow.  (Starbucks always calls my name on the way to work)

One thing I am also working on this week is upping the amount of protein in my diet.  Which is hard because I rarely eat meat while here at school. 
I came up with a "new" protein shake recipe today and it was delicious.  I do have to admit it was hard to take the first drink knowing that there was a ton of spinach in there, but you honestly can't taste it and I got another serving of veggies! 

I have trouble drinking an entire blender bottle full or protein shake, so I did cut down my serving quite a bit. 
2/3 c almond milk
1/3 banana sliced
1 T Pb2
1 scoop chocolate isopure protein
1 good handful of spinach
few ice cubes
Blend and enjoy :) 

I need to continue to remind myself this during the next couple weeks when pizza and sweets are calling my name.


Until tomorrow :)
