I got out for a run yesterday 🏃‍♀️  it was long overdue and I have had zero motivation lately but as it is my birthday in a month, I commenced the get-that-fat-off-my-thighs mission 🤣

In August, I will be going less to the gym and more outdoors. I have been neglecting cardio more than I should have and it shows. I almost died after 5 km in the heat but it will get better once my body gets used to regular runs 🤘

Been to the gym today (back and biceps) and then I went rollerblade skating with my sister. And I cleaned my apartment in the morning. So I am already falling asleep over the keybord 😴

This is today´s only normal meal I managed to make, all other dishes were improvised and eaten on the run. Oh, and I managed to break a glass shelf in my parents´ fridge while trying to get a huuuge watermelon out of it ✌️ - if you need to destroy something you can always count me in

🌱Spring calls for something light and easy. I have just tried the instant ramen recipe by 🍋Pick Up Limes🍋 and I love it so if you are looking for something quick and healthy maybe you will give this a shot :) It is perfect for beginners. ☝️

Ingredients:

1/4 plain tofu

1 block instant noodles

1 spring onion

4 medium champignons 🍄

2 tbsp miso paste

1/4 stock cube

a handful of spinach 🌱

☀️

All you have to do is to put all ingredients in a larger bowl and pour boiling water inside so that everything is covered. Wait for a couple of minutes until noodles get soft and you can eat away! 🍲 💁🏻‍♀️

Today was much better than yesterday.

I made up for the skipped gym workout and went for a run in the afternoon (5 km).

And to show you how incredible I am, I will tell you that I have just smashed my head into the fridge door so violantly that I started to cry like a baby and I already have a huge bulge on my forehead. 

I was trying to get raspberries from the freezer and thought I was pulling the freezer door but, stupid me, I was pulling the door from the fridge and it opened and hit me hard. Every day, I get more and more amazed at how more overworked I can get :/

Breakfast: smoothie with banana and strawberries

Lunch: salad with scrambled tofu and tahini dressing, a slice of rye toast

Dinner: quinoa veggie salad and one orange

Snack: a glass of wine - because I really, really needed it after the crash with the fridge.

Hope your evening is going better than mine :)

Eating at 9:30 pm?? 😱😱

Yesss - because I didn't have time for dinner after work and headed right to the gym (despite feeling drained) 💪

That body needs to eat and it needs proper nutrition to build the muscles so there is nothing wrong with eating late in the evening as long as it is healthy and the portion is appropriate ☝️

I made a bowl of lettuce with roasted cauliflower and a couple of potato wedges and poured some tahini dressing over it all.

I have already burnt over 3,000 calories today so I should be fiiiiine ☺

1/4/2019

Guess who is sick again :/ Luckily, this time it looks like just a cold with a runny nose so I managed to do my workout (shoulders and inner thighs).

I am a bit upset about my thighs - they have got so much bigger this winter and I can see the layers of fat around them and it makes me anxious. I can´t wait for the days when it is warm enough outside for a run! I hope my thighs will get nicely shaped again once I run regularly :)

Breakfast: oatmeal as usually

Lunch: vegan pancakes with home-made plum jam and ground walnuts

Dinner: salad with hummus and knackerbrot

P.S.: I am not really sure about the rules for posting under the hashtag springinto2019 so if I am doing it wrong or I am missing out on some rules/compulsory posts, please let me know! :)

You know what is better than public holiday on Wednesday?  Waking up to next to my favourite person on public holiday on Wednesday.

Bf went to the gym from my place so I made him a penut butter and banana toasts for breakfast. I felt like having savoury breakfast (and I also had to finish my vegan spread before it would go bad).

It was so good to have a free day - I did a new spread for May in my journal and went to the gym around noon instead of late evening. It was okay but I didn´t feel very well because there were too many Instagram girls (you know, those girls with perfect workout outfits and make up and perfect hair, laughing and chatting all the time) and I just felt like they were looking at me. It was probably just my paranoia but still...anyways

I had some biscotti with my coffee and I finished tortilla chips from last night so I wasn´t eating totally clean today, FYI

Workout: back and biceps

Breakfast: a bread roll with vegan spread and veggies Lunch: spaghetti bolognese with veggies Dinner: Savoury red lentil cake with sauerkraut Snack: Coffee and biscotti and a square of dark chocolate

Have a great night!

This was such a terrible run 😅

I was tired after 6 hours of sleep, it was searing hot, and I was out of breath after 2 minutes.

Bad runs are very important because on those days, you fight with yourself. Bad runs teach you to be more humble - you have to silence your ego and tell yourself that even though you'd love to run faster than the wind and even though you could push yourself to do so, you honour your body and your inner voice that tells you: "we will do better tomorrow" and, therefore, you slow down and accept the fact that your body needs to be treated gently for once.
