Give Me Bananas

 

Well who needs a shrink when you have a blog?? Thank you so much for your comments, you are definitely the wisest and most amazing people out there.

Oh and just for the record.. if anyone thought that I was fishing for compliments or wanted everyone to tell me that I’m beautiful (HA!) then you’re wrong

You know, even admitting that we have issues is a huge step. I remember that it hasn’t always been like that for me.
Let’s embrace our flaws together!

 

But let me quickly quote the über-wise Ildie who wrote a long comment even though she’s on vacation. Hello? Who writes such adorable comments when they are away and enjoy some well deserved rest? You’re insane Ildie, INSANE! Go back outside, leave your laptop behind and enjoy the sun! ♥

“Ahhh fat talk. We ALL do it and those of us who say we don’t are lying. We all HATE our thighs or small boobs or double chin or flappy arms or “back boobs” and jiggly asses. We all have something we wish we could change. On certain days some of our bits and pieces seem particularly worse in comparison to the others and we DISSECT our bodies bit by bit because of it. It’s silly!!! Will we ever be able to stop? To be realistic, HECK NO! We just have to move past it. A pushup bra and the perfect pair of jeans that suck in your gut and magically lift your ass help! The rest is up to you. HA!

In the end, it’s who we are that makes us unique and beautiful. It’s the things we do with our lives and the people that we surround ourselves with and whose lives we impact and change that everyone will remember. Not the dimples on my butt. I doubt anyone will remember that. HA! Well except for me but that’s okay.”

Fat talk was completely gone when I dug into my amazing quinoa porridge this morning. Ah.. what an fantastic way to start the day. If I had the time (or money) I’d visit you all and make you a batch of quinoa porridge.
However, people who don’t like it won’t be my friends anymore. (Thinking about it.. I believe that Silvio wasn’t a huge fan. HA! That means I have to break up with him. What a pity! — jk jk!! ).

 

I nibbled my little heart away during the day. Sesame crackers until I dropped. Gosh, they’re like crack (not that I know how crack’s like ). Why do I keep buying them??

 

Oh and there also was a rice cake sandwich with herbs & garlic pâté. This pâté is crazy good and the main ingredient is nutritional yeast!

 

I also had a normal lunch (a sandwich. snore..).

 

I had plans to go to the 8:15pm pilates class so I had a very light dinner and cooked 1/4 red lentils with 2 handfuls of spinach and added some teriyaki sauce at the end.

 

 

The race is on Saturday and so I’m keeping it light and easy this week. Lots of yoga, stretching, walking and lying on the sofa. You know, the usual.. minus the running. Oh how much I’m enjoying it!

 

Have a great day!!
