Up early, early to do my one day of outside running. I'm curious (every week) if the run will feel long or hard since I only run one day of sustained cardio (tomorrow is intervals). If it consistently feels worse, I might change up my schedule. But I also look to see if it's better - feels easier, feels faster (consistently). One or two times doesn't mean a pattern - there are good and bad anomalies.
The nutrition class yesterday was interesting. There was a lot of information on "messed-up" hormones from eating and exercising less optimally. There is an herbal supplement he recommends for my situation (Dr. Oz also endorses it - which doesn't hold a lot of weight with me - not a fan) but I did some looking around and it looks okay. I'll give it a try and see what's up.
The herb relaxes the body (which according to Dr. Sun - I need) (and now according to the trainer - I need). Two messages in the same week - I'll listen. I didn't find side effects that concerned me and it's been around for a long time. The nutritionalist has been using it for over a decade.
This morning will be busy. Run, make dessert for the game today (I always get asked to bring rice crispies lol), walk the dog, take a hike, pick up wings ... all by noonish. The only caveat is hubby has the cold still - hike might be canceled if he feels crappy. I don't like to hike by myself (especially if I don't know the trail). We are previewing the hike to see if it's good for my mom when she comes (and the dog!).
I had the munchies again last night. After I rode the snack train for a little while, I decided NO more evening snacking for this week ... period. If I'm hungry, then a mini-meal. I don't need to build that habit again.
My toes look great. A gray, plum color. Very fall. I thought about pink for October, but I wasn't in a pink mood. It seems my nails are growing faster and stronger. Again, hard to actually measure it, so it might be the power of suggestion at work lol.
Drinks are finished. Time to run and incantate ... for at least part of the run. I am HAPPY, HEALTHY ENGERY.
