Once upon a time I ran for 16 minutes on Tuesday! And my knee felt awesome. Having a running buddy has seriously made a world of difference. He pushes me to go farther and faster (even though most of the time I do not want to) which is awesome because it's making me a better runner. I can feel myself getting into better and better shape and I am feeling awesome.
Food wise, I'm not doing all that great. I'm still eating a lot of fruits and veggies, but I'm going out to eat a lot. Like, a lot a lot. Like, every single night of this week. Fail. But hey, I'm a poor college student and I need to eat as much free food as I possibly can!

i'm doing great even if this blog is not
Well, I've been so busy being active lately that I haven't posted on my healthy habits blog. I discovered the secret to physical activity. Find someone to do active things with. In the last week I have been on two awesome hikes, gone on two runs and played ultimate frisbee twice. I love that I've been so incredibly active and it doesn't even feel like a hassle or a burden to get out and get some physical activity in. It's just hanging out with someone that I want to spend time with and it's so fun. I also feel AMAZING. I have huge amounts of energy all the time and even though I've been getting a little less sleep, I don't feel as tired. I am having a blast and feeling great about myself too!
On a note about my eating, it has been pretty good! I ate a lot of home cooked meals this week (as well as a couple of out-to-eats...), and I've been having green smoothies almost every day. It's surprising, but they fill me up really well and I have definitely felt differences in myself as I've been consuming more fruits and veggies. I had red meat twice this week, but oh well. This girl will probably never say no to a burger.
All in all, I'm feeling great about my healthy habit goals! The goal for this week is to be better about bedtime...we'll see how that goes!

weekend recap
Friday I ran right after work for 8 minutes, felt awesome. I ate a ton of fruits and veggies and had three water bottles.
Saturday was a good day. I slept in until 10, had some spiritual nourishment at the temple, ate a lot of strawberries and vegetables, went on a 10 minute run and felt great.
Sunday was my day of rest. I read almost a whole book, had a great time at my new church, ate some chicken and carrots. It was good times.

call me fruity
I'm trying to incorporate more fruits, veggies and whole grains into my diet and less red meat, processed food and dairy. I'm making little changes at a time, but I feel pretty good about what I accomplished today. So far I've eaten a banana, apple, green beans and strawberries and I have plans for a broccoli, cauliflower, carrot medley with my dinner. Little things like eating more fruits and vegetables make a big difference!
