TAN #179-It's smart to use a protecTANt. (Page 31)

Oops - I missed the 'almond' part of the milk.  While almond milk isn't dairy, it's still not recommended on paleo. Neither is soy milk, rice milk, or any other variation. 

What's your favorite workout? Whatever it is get your gear ready before you head out to work or to bed and promise yourself you'll at least do a little. You need the habit to kick back in.

I made this pizza (minus the cheese) when I was trying to solve my GI issues: http://frayedlaces.blogspot.com/2011/07/quinoa-crust-gluten-free-almond-pesto.html I think I might have even subbed the egg with ground flax/water.

Yes, maybe I just sign up for a random short distance race to get myself back into the swing of at least having something to train for.

I seem so distacted by "boys" which makes me mad, cause I usually put my healthy stuff even before my kids cause i feel its that impotant to me

Just starting to think I will never be at the level I once was.  I do better if I have someone who hold me accountable but not having athletic friends is a problem.

Bottom line is I think I just become kind of lazy and not missed the pressure of training and racing. 

And I often think when I was in a marriage where I am not happy training was a healthy outlet to have and I don't need it as much as I once did.  Does that make sense?

Alrighty TAN - I'm out for now to go text Tony, jump into the shower, and then head off to Trader Joe's to get yet more groceries. 

Have a good day everyone! 

You are RIGHT, this statement alone gives me the soark!  It is still there and if I have to start out with a 4 minute run, I guess that is better than doing NOTHING!

Can I also mention I have been on TOP a lot this thread, maybe thats why I am so tired?

Avocados. Get lots!!! Healthy fat. Eat them up!!!

Monica go to Stanleys on north ave!

I bought 6 full bags of fruits and veggies for 30 dollars.....can't beat the store, freshness, or prices!!

The best advice I heard from someone was to just start again. "Even 30 minute run is better than nothing."  I'm just getting out of my "funk" and back into training. Between the heat of summer, work, moving and doing some remodeling on a house, I let the training go. For me, just starting again was all I needed. I signed up for a marathon as motivation but it was really the getting back to running that brought me back to where I used to be. After the first long run, I remembered how much I enjoyed training and now look forward to waking up early again to go for a run/ride.

x2! I took a few weeks off in June and it was SOOOO hard to get back - I just wanted to lay on the couch - it must be 1 billion times worse for you Cheri . 

But I think it did help mentally when I got out even for a short walk or a short - SOMETHING. Didn't have to be big or long (heh) but just something I could put in my training log and SEE.

That's kind of weird, I was watching hunger games last night too.

The books are fantastic.

I watched Real Steel last night and it was an ok movie. The previews were horrible but I liked the movie.

I said "screw it" to training since last Weds and other than the guilt, I finally feel good this morning!  Not so tired.  Back to it today though.

It may be too late, but I still think I have JUST enough time to salvage my race.

Crap, forgot about that.  It's on the must watch list.

I know the DVD is out, but I'm waiting for Capt. America to come out on HBO.  (and Thor).  Wife needs to catch up so The Avengers makes a little more sense.

Capt. America and Thor are on netflix right now and real steel is on demand for showtime.
