Rebounding

Before I get into my regularly scheduled posting, I just want to thank Adrien again for her guest post. I know that it couldn’t have been easy to write and put out there for the world to see and I think its so important that she did.

My day started off on the right foot with a glorious shower – first one in 6 days. Don’t worry, I was soaping up in the bath. (TMI?) Anywho, it felt amazing (with a side of sting). I’m really healing up and its making me quite happy. Breakfast was equally glorious – overnight oats with plain greek yogurt, oats, apricot jam, half a nanner, cinnamon and some naturally nutty cinnamon vanilla sunflower seed butter.

For lunch, I had a lovely date with my best coworker-friend Nan and a side of salad bar. I didn’t take a picture, but you guys have seen it numerous times. Mixed greens, cuc, carrots, beans, hummus, croutons… yum on a plate.

Snack was like dessert. Its been a while since I’ve had a Pure bar and it tasted delicious. Must pick up more. :)

After work, I made my way to the gym. It felt glorious to put some workout clothes and sneaks on. I did a hill walk on the treadmill and it felt soo good to break a sweat. It was Emilyday worthy, indeed.

By the time I got home I was a starvin’ marvin’. I made some sweet tater homefries on the stove – once they were nice and crispy, I added some bell pepper, spinach and an egg. I topped it all off with salsa, half an avocado and some hot sauce. Yum.

I’ve just been working on some school work and now its time to watch the Celtics. Woo hoo! I’m going to break into a bit of frozen yogurt and put my feet up.

Have a great night, guys!

Oh goodness, I didn't even think about the fact that it would be difficult for you to take a shower. Glad you were able to get one tonight. So glad you're rebounding and feeling better each day.

Happy Friday!! :)
