Friday
Breakfast: coffee with half&half, blackberries
Lunch: out to eat with Mom
Snacks: apple, cheese stick, macadamia nuts
Dinner mini street tacos, 1/4 of a dessert at On The Border
Weird day. I took my car in to get the oil changed at WalMart and they told me that my engine had no oil and that I had a leak-but they couldn't fix it or add oil or anything because they don't actually have a mechanic there. Had my Dad look at it--there was oil in it and no visible leak (plus no spot on my drive way), so we concluded that WalMart is just full of dubasses. I had rolled over 100k miles on the way to WalMart, so no more warranty=scared Manda. Took it to an actual shop and had them change the oil and look at it--they said it was fine (and it drove fine). Started to panic a bit about the possibility of something bad happening soon while on the interview trail. Went to "just look" at new cars last night and ended up coming home with a newer one, haha. Anyway, I didn't eat until after 10pm because we were at the dealership for so long, and I definitely didn't get my workout in.

Happy Friday to you! (A little jealous)
Hoping to do better today. I really want to try something new-something to re-motivate my food. I'm really motivated about working out (most days anyway) so I just need idea for food. Any thoughts?

Lunch: meatloaf, green beans, acorn squash

Sorry for no post the last couple of days. Work was pretty busy yesterday and then I went to zumba and when I got home I just crashed.
My eating hasn't been very good this week. I feel like besides lunch and dinner yesterday every meal has been eaten out. It's probably because I didn't go to the grocery store on Sunday and I only have dry pasta left at my house. I will be going shopping after work though.
Also going to go to the Y tonight to run/elliptical.
Hope you have a great Wednesday!
Ok so I didn't want to go the gym tonight but I forced myself and ran for a good 20 minutes and then did the elliptical for like 15. I couldn't wait to leave because I had to tell my mom I ran into Kirby from EB and he basically said that he may have a position opening up and I would love to go back to work for him. I feel like it's meant to be! How exciting.
I have so much I need to catch up on. I did get bills paid and was able to make it to the grocery store. I really need to go fold clothes and wash dishes. I may just fold clothes and call it a night.
I will be making another trip to Stillwater tomorrow for Beta Alpha Psi and another dinner out. I also am going to lunch with Sarah tomorrow so it'll be another day of eating out. Friday I'm going to stillwater again because Jim and Loretta (great aunt & uncle) are coming into town. We'll be going out to dinner with them. I guess I can't complain about all the outings I just wish it was easier to eat out. I'm really going to start watching what I eat. Obviously that didn't happen today. Breakfast burrito and nutter butters??? disgusting.

Tuesday
Well today I had an eye appt, so basically I had a free day! Woo!
I was pretty sore all day though. I didn't know if I was going to make it out of bed, haha. Then when I went to do my workout, it started skipping with 10mins left. So I just did some more pushups and stretched and called it a day. My muscles were pretty spent and I'd already burnt like 500 cals anyway. So I'm good with it.
Breakfast: quesadilla, coffee with half and half
Snack: apple and cheese stick
Lunch: chicken and pecan salad (chicken was breaded and dressing was pretty sweet)
Snack: tomatoes and cheese stick
Dinner: veggie loaded meatloaf, fresh steamed green beans
Snack: cereal
Activity: 3/4 of a workout
Water: (X) (X) (X) (X) (X) (X) () ()

Well somehow my post from yesterday got deleted..... hrm.
Also, just wanted to let you know that if people click on your user name from the Skookum blog, they can trace back to this one--not sure if you knew that or if that was ok with you or not?
Hope you had a good day at OSU!
I did have a question for ya: what's your daily schedule like?? Work, dinner, exercise? Work, exercise, then dinner? Just curious how you make it work in the evenings. Tonight I am going for the work, dinner, exercise (and hope not to be sick) approach.
Breakfast: breakfast quesadilla, coffee with half and half
Snack: tomatoes and cheddar cheese
Lunch: 2 chicken legs, acorn squash
Snack: apple
Dinner: hamburger patty, baked cauliflower

Plan for tomorrow:
Ok, so I need your input. I have an idea of what to get you for your birthday, but I need to know if you already have something similar. What workout gear/clothes/equipment/accessories do you use most days?

Sunday
This weekend has been so busy but it has been full of such awesome things that I would gladly be this busy all the time if it was like this!!!
Friday we went to the regatta which was amazing and then went to H & 8th which is the monthly food truck rally in OKC. We stayed there til midnight. Such a great night for OKC.
Saturday we went to the Plaza district festival. More food trucks, great local vendors and musicians. Seriously? Am I still in OKC? It doesn't feel like Oklahoma when all this great stuff happens all in one weekend.
Today I'm taking Melissa to Cheevers for lunch/brunch and then I'm taking Courtney to the slow food picnic at the Harn Homestead. It's her Birthday and there will be local farmers there and all the great local chefs preparing their food so it's like work/fun all wrapped in one.
Tonight I'm heading to the parents because we are interviewing students at OSU tomorrow. My lunch and dinner will bought by HT tomorrow so I may not be tracking. It's so hard and frustrating to do when you have no control. I'll try and limit fatty/horrible food though.
I am going to try and run tonight. I really want to run the Susan G. Komen 5k on October 15th. I ran 2 miles on the treadmill yesterday, then did 6 miles on the bike (30 minutes) and then did 30 minutes on the elliptical for 3 miles. It felt great. I was going to go to zumba but no one showed up which was a first. I feel like if I keep running for most days until the 15th then I should be ready for the 5k on the 15th. And even if I'm not I can still walk just a little then get right back to running.
I will start hardcore tracking again on Tuesday. I sort of let my food get away from me. This week has had such great eating from the food trucks which I feel is my duty to eat to Saints, the new irish pub, to Cheevers and Slow food today. It's so hard to pass that up. That's why I feel like if I exercise at least I'm somewhat balancing it out, haha. Probably not but it's making me feel less guilty.
