My eating habits on the weekend pretty much suck, but this weekend I may have really outdone myself. The combination of homework, running a million errands, and trying to fit in the long workouts that I can’t do during the week, pretty much killed any interest I had in making a proper meal.
On Saturday I went for a 10k run with my friend Kelly, and had she not provided me with a post run snack, I probably would have just gone home and had a bowl of cereal.
Red velvet cupcakes are far more appropriate.
Because our run was later in the afternoon, I didn’t really have a proper lunch. I had half a green smoothie before we headed out, and half in the car on the way back home. After I showered, I went to my parents house to do a little homework before we headed off to see The Vow. I planned to make dinner while I was there, but that got too difficult so instead I melted some cheese on Triscuits with pickles.
At the movie I had some strawberry pineapple frozen yogurt, which kind of makes up for my lack of any real food because of the fruit.
The movie was fine btw. It wasn’t exactly disappointing, and I can’t say anything negative about it. I liked it just fine. But the thing with these movies, is that none of them will ever compare to The Notebook, and I guess I always go in expecting them to. This one did make me a little teary, but only a little, and I felt like it needed more. It ended too soon for me, and I just wasn’t ready for it to be over quite yet.
Lunch yesterday looked like this:
See it?
This is what happens when I study at my parents house. You would think that since it is where I grew up, I would know how to find something decent to eat, but they don’t have a single thing that I’m interested in. So every time I go there to do my homework, I eat crackers. Every. Time.
Obviously, crackers aren’t enough food so I wound up making the only thing I could think of – grilled cheese. I had such high hopes for this sandwich too. I filled it with onions, tomatoes, hummus, and this amazing spicy mustard they have. It was going to be so amazing.
Then I forgot about it until I smelled burning.
I was beyond disappointed. It wasn’t entirely inedible, but it sure wasn’t what I had hoped for.
I kind of feel hung over today from eating nothing but crap for the last two days, so I’m almost glad to get back to the week and my regular eating habits.
I need to get it together and figure out a way to eat properly on the weekend. This whole looking forward to Monday thing, I don’t like it.
