My lunch today is amazing. I made a salad at the salad bar in my grocery store and got sweet potato fries. My salad consists of… lettuce (obviously), green peppers, chickpeas, black olives, sunflower seeds, and broccoli. Yum!

Intake 1/30

• green juice
• amy’s tofu tikka masala
• satsuma
• cliff bar
• dark chocolate
• sauteed veggies over whole wheat pasta with sauce and nutritional yeast

i might have a little snack since i’m sure i can afford it, i have to be into work by 7:30am tomorrow so that means i have to wake up very early to actually get there. i’ve already made my lunch though! (quinoa, kale, and tofu)

• dinner at a Japanese restaurant (sweet potato rolls, vegetable tempura, and green tea and strawberry mochi!)

I am so incredibly exhausted

and honestly for a while I was thinking “I’ll just skip the gym tonight, I don’t need to go.” But then I thought, what if I said that every time I felt this way? I’d get nowhere. So I’m drinking a cup of coffee, and maybe taking a nap, and then at 7 I’m heading to the gym. So what if I just walk and do weights and abs. Walking is a hell of a lot better than laying in bed doing nothing.
