Ran again today! I ran outside for the first time since starting training!
I loved it! I brought my daughter with, she road her little princess bike. Unfortunately her little legs couldn't carry her as fast as mine could. Those starter bikes come with training wheels but no gears! Poor girl was pedaling so fast that she almost burned the chain off. But it sure was fun cheering her on! We had so much fun together! Her smile was so big! I am starting to love this whole running thing. It's feeling good! Granted I am only increasing my runs by very small increments. But eventually I will get to the 5 mile point! So excited! I want to kick ass for that race!
FYI! I am using the tag Karasvegan for anyone who may want to track my experience/journey! :)
We are having wonderful spicy mexican quinoa left overs for lunch! Yum!
I had a wonderful lunch today at Noodles and Company!!
I read an article and wanted to try the Pasta Fresca but they didn't have it. So I customized the Whole Grain Tuscan Fresca to be like the Past Fresca. I asked for no cheese and substituted the penne noodles. It was absolutely wonderful!!
You should try it! :)
Vegan challenge: eating at other peoples houses.
So my little family slept at my parents house last night after the WONDERFUL Packers vs Vikings game. Anyways it's breakfast time and there's nothing for me to eat. Oh well...
So tomorrow will be my one month anniversary as a vegan.
I have lost almost 13 pounds! The challenge I am facing is not getting enough flavor! For example I have eaten a lot of refried bean meals, you can only eat so many refried bean meals. I bought tofu and will be trying to make something with it tomorrow. I have really been craving a cheese beefy sour cream filled Taco Bell meal. But with more time I know that will change time Another challenge is eating too many processed carbs. I started a new schedule and work and it's killing me. I don't work out and I binge on simple carbs when I get home. No bueno. Also my final problem is I have been having spells of light headedness. It's quite scary, but I am taking supplements to make up for the iron I'm lacking. Any suggested simple/easy vegan meals?
I made vegan chocolate chips today!
Holy cow they have a STRONG flavor! Knock your socks off!
