I have found myself locked into a pretty tight schedule for this endeavor. I need to have healthy food ready for consumption 5 times per day and have blocked out time for excercise at least once per day. What I'm learning the hard way is that those two things go hand in hand.
By yesterday I had exhausted my planned food supply. I had no bananas for the morning smoothie, no carrots or protein bars for daytime snacks, no ingredients for healthy dinners. I got by with some oatmeal from the cafeteria for breakfast and a sandwich for lunch, but by the time I got home from work around 7:30PM, exercise was out of the question because I was STARVING. I ate reasonably healthy, but definitely missed out on the requisite Yoga X workout that I had planned. Very naughty.
Lesson learned? Poor grocery planning impacts both diet and excercise - so don't let the shopping slip!
I almost wish I'd had the strengh to fast all week -- this weekend I'll be dress shopping. Please expect a very depressing post that includes words like 'sausage' and 'doom' by Monday.
