Recap

First day back in the office after vacation. purposefully stayed away from the coffee to make sure i was not depending on it. Did not feel like i needed a cup until the afternoon after my huge lunch. Had a small breakfast so by lunch i was starving, turns out there was left over pizza in the fridge having not had pizza for a month i was all over it. grabbed two slices of veggie pizza and was feeling good.

then found out we where going out in the field, not sure how long we would be out for and still felt a little hungry i grabbed two more slices and off we went. on the way to the job site i wolfed down the slices only to find out we had an hours worth of work and then back home. the pizza sat like a brick in my stomach and did not feel well for the rest of the day, wondering how much of that was because of the grease and how much of it was from portion control.

Got home and headed out for my workouts considering i missed all of them when i was home on vacation. the swim went really well however i was burping up pizza the entire time and had swimmers gut when it was all said and done. got home and headed right out on the run, legs felt super solid under me and was able to hold what seamed like an too easy rhythm for the 45 min and put up 8:45 min miles!! was so happy to hear i did that, finding that i think i really could run 8 min half marathon and that it is not just some number i am throwing out.

went to the store and grabbed a pound of salmon (because i didn't get enough when i was home (4 pounds))
